## Description

PHYTOPLANKTON Nannochloropsis is a beneficial micro algae found throughout the world’s oceans. This live phytoplankton has been cultured from a Petri Dish, using Hydro Algal Fertilizer with the industry-standard Guillard f/2 medium formula for greater density and longer viability. By culturing directly from a Petri Dish, you can be assured that you have only Nannochloropsis Oculata, and not a mixture of various types of microalgae. The genus Nannochloropsis Oculata is widely accepted as the standard for reef keeping aquarists to promote the growth and vibrancy of many corals, invertebrates, and other filter feeder livestock. At Mercer of Montana, we adhere to the highest standards of sterile laboratory protocols, to ensure that each bottle of dense, vitamin rich Phytoplankton is contaminant-free. The salinity of the phytoplankton you received was cultured at a specific gravity of 1.020. To inoculate your own phytoplankton culture, combine phytoplankton with saltwater (1.018-1.020 sg) at an equal rate (1:1). Add Hydro Algal Fertilizer at a rate of 1.0ml per liter. Warning: Not recommended for human consumption. Filtering during the bottling process assures you’re adding the highest level of purity to your livestock and saltwater. HYDRO ALGAL FERTILIZER Guillard’s f/2 formula in an 8 ounce bottle. Contains: Vitamins B12, Thiamin, and Biotin, to ensure a proper balance for maximum health. Other Ingredients: Cupric Sulfate, Zinc Sulfate, Cobalt Chloride, Sodium Ferric Ethylendiaminetetraacetate (EDTA), Manganese Chloride, Sodium Molydate, Sodium Nitrate, and Sodium Phosphate.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Prefect for reef tank
*by M***E on July 5, 2024*

I was able to grow more of this on my own with an air pump, light, and a small 2 gallon tank. Shipping was quick and item arrived alive.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Phytoplankton cluture
*by M***N on April 28, 2024*

Arrived quickly with good packaging. Already harvested my first batch. Very pleased. Definitely recommend if you want to create your own home grown phytoplankton

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product!
*by R***R on April 27, 2019*

I’m super happy with this product. I started it in 3 - 1/2 gallon containers and was able to split it in less than 2 weeks. I’ve split it 4 times now and have set up a couple of tanks so I can raise tigger and apocyclops pods. I will have enough phyto to feed them, feed my 365g aquarium and some leftover for friends.
