CSoli921 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I have been cultivating Isochrysis galbana, Nannochloropsis occulata, and Tetraselmis suecica. I am now offering this nice blend to my fellow reefers. Please let me know when you are interested, because bottles will go out on a first-come first-served basis. Thanks, Chris Link to comment
CSoli921 Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 I have been cultivating Nannochloris sp, Nannochloropsis sp, and Tetraselmus sp. I would be sending out e16oz bottles with the three inside of it. I will have to figure out the details of shipping later, but just wanted to know if there is any market for it on here. Also if you wouldn't mind putting your name down that would be good. Thanks a lot! Link to comment

macclellan Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Death to gauging interest threads. If you have something to sell, sell it. The best way to know if there is a market is to offer it for sale - and the answer to that question is largely determined by price, which you have not included. I only answer hypothetical questions with hypothetical answers: hence my "maybe" answer. EDIT: Ninjad. Glad to see you wised up. Link to comment
CSoli921 Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 yeah... i realized it was dumb to "gauge interest," so I decided to just post it. I have some available already, so it doesn't matter either way. Link to comment
CSoli921 Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 1 bottle sold to user Shan. Hope you enjoy! Link to comment
angelacbishop Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I would be interested in a month or so. I'm using Reef Nutrition's phyto live but I'm sure your homemade stuff is much better! Link to comment
CSoli921 Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 You can send me a PM when you're ready. It's definitely good stuff Link to comment
CSoli921 Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 Anyone else interested? I'm shipping more out tomorrow. Link to comment
InTr4nceWeTrust Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I remember at one point I was trying to find phytoplankton. I know you can spot feed some coral with them. Could you remind me what else phytoplankton is fed to? I can't remember if they're used in culturing rotifers or mysis or something. Link to comment

Any filter feeders love it. Rotifers, mysis, and pods. A good thing about it is that it is harder to pollute the water or anything because it is live. Clams like it also. You can do a search for it and find more info. Link to comment
JBM Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 how would you keep this fresh? very interested. Link to comment
CSoli921 Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 I just keep splitting the culture so I always have fresh phytoplankton growing. I take out 2/3 fresh phyto and add 2/3 saltwater and nutrients, and a week or so later I have a full bottle of phyto. I have seven bottles right now, so there is always fresh phyto. Edit: And if you meant after I send it out, you can store it in the refrigerator for a month or more. Link to comment

shan Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I just wanted to add that I have a buy 2 get 1 free special offered. If you are interested in that you can ask me for a shipping quote. im now wondering how often i should feed my zoas and rics with this? Link to comment
angelacbishop Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I usually feed phyto every other day during the lights on time. But technically your zoas and rics won't eat it. The phtyo will feed your pods/other little critters which will thus increase in population and then feed your zoas and rics. Feather dusters and other filter feeders like gorgonians and sponges and smaller clams will greatly benefit from this stuff too. Link to comment
