Hello @Kenneth Wingerter and anyone that can share thoughts or their experience of using PNS Probio as a bacteria source in carbon dosing?
From my readings about PNS Probio, it appears that R. palustris is a possible strain of bacteria that can be beneficial to the coral holobiont.
Please correct me if I am understanding incorrectly; R. palustris much prefer to be in anerobic conditions.
However, R. palustris can be aerobic in water suspension and are chemoautotrophic for carbon dosing thus reducing nitrogen and phosphate? How efficient is this mechanism of action in our reef tank environment?
My main goal is to control my phosphate level while feeding/seeding my corals "good holobiont" bacteria R. palustris as opposed to "bad" bacteria (vibrio, dinos,etc).
Thanks!
