Hype Up Your Reef with Live Phytoplankton

  • Curated Blend of 4 Phytoplankton Strains
  • Nutrient-Rich Food Source for Corals, Clams & Copepods
  • Reproduces Naturally to Consume Nitrate & Phosphate
  • Enhances Coloration & Growth in Filter Feeders
  • Helps Control Silicates, Dinoflagellates & Diatoms

 

Reef Hype Phytoplankton Mix is a curated blend of 4 phytoplankton strains of microalgae: Nannochloropsis, Tetraselmis, Isochrysis, and Thalassiosira. This specific blend is great nutrition source for filter-feeding animals in your ecosystem, such as corals, clams, and copepods. These phytoplankton species are able to reproduce in your reef, so they will also naturally consume waste products from the water column such as nitrate and phosphate, recycling these nutrients in their biomass and delivering them to your reef inhabitants.

 

Directions for Use

  • Shake well before each use.
  • For the first 3 weeks: Add 15 mL of Phyto per 50 gallons of tank water volume daily.
  • After the first 3 weeks: Gradually increase to meet the needs of your reef system.

Tip: Spot feed for optimal results.

Note: Keep refrigerated between uses at a temperature between 35°F and 40°F. With proper storage, anticipate a shelf life of up to 3 months.

 

What's in Reef Hype?

  • Nannochloropsis sp: Aside from providing a nutritious food source, will also naturally consume common waste products found in a reef aquarium; a few examples are Ammonia, Nitrites, and Nitrates.
  • Tetraselmis sp: One of the best phytoplankton food sources due to its rich amino and fatty acid content.
  • Isochrysis sp: A brown colored algae. Helps coloring in all filter feeders, Iso will help to increase copepod populations.
  • Thalassiosira sp: A large strain of phytoplankton that consumes silicates and helps to prevent the growth of Dinoflagellates and Diatoms.

Product Questions

How do you store the live phytoplankton? In the fridge, or in room temperature hooked up to a bubbler, or in room temperature in the sun? How long can it be stored?
Question by: Rachel Lee on Apr 4, 2025, 9:47 PM
0
This should be kept in the refrigerator and will last around 3 weeks.
