EasyReefs EasyDose: A Collection of Phytoplankton Foods In Fluid Bags That Attach to Your Dosing Pump for Feeding Soft and NPS Corals, Clams, & Inverts

 

 

 

Phytoplankton, or marine microalgae, are microscopic vegetable cells that are found in the sea. Phytoplankton is at the base of the food chain in aquatic ecosystems. It serves as food for higher organisms, like zooplankton, filter feeders, and plant-eating corals.

 

Marine phytoplankton is considered a superfood because it contains vitamins, essential fatty acids (EPA, DHA, ARA, GLA), essential amino acids, proteins, carbohydrates, minerals and bioactive compounds involved in the metabolic activities of all living beings in general, and of marine organisms in particular.

 

EasyDose by EasyReefs is one of the most game-changing product lines to hit the hobby. They've been thoroughly tested and proven safe and laboratory environments They are clean and ready to use.  a veritable advancement for aquariums and aquarists.  EasyDose is suspended in gel form and comprised of marine microalgae and marine minerals that can be preserved at room temperature for over 18 months.  

 

• Easybooster. Liquid phytoplankton that is ready to use, easy and clean.
• Easyart. For culture, growing and maintenance of artemia, molluscs and other crustaceans.
• Easyroti (Prof.). For rotifer culture
• Easyrich (Monodosis y Prof.). For zooplancton enrichment.

Do corals feed off phytoplankton?

Not many coral species feed directly on phytoplankton. However, all coral species feed indirectly off of it.

 

 

 

How does EasyBooster affect the aquarium?

The proliferation of microfauna and its subsequent reproduction produces an increase in the availability of zooplankton in the water column and rocks. This provides food for the corals, completing their nutritional requirements, and feed for fish that capture their prey between the rocks or in the sediment (Synchiropus, Valencianea, etc.).

 

 

How do I know if EasyBooster is working correctly in my aquarium?

The first symptom that it’s working correctly is the intensification of the color of SPS corals. Non-photosynthetic plant-eating corals swell and open their polyps to feed. Other filter feeders like Tridacnas, Seballestraei, etc. show increased growth and activity.

 

In a short amount of time, there is a significant increase in the microfauna present in the aquarium, and fans and sponges appear soon after.

 

 

Does EasyBooster increase the amount of phosphate in the aquarium?

Yes, as do all foods in more or less measure. Phosphorus is an essential nutrient for life.

 

However, the bioavailability of phosphorus associated with phytoplankton makes this quickly turn into biomass that does not disperse along the water column like a residual nutrient.

 

 

Is it important to begin using EasyBooster in increasing doses?

It is not only important; it is vital for the aquarium’s balance that you begin using it at a low dose and gradually increase it according to the instructions.

This is to ensure that the bacteria, filter feeders and microfauna present in the aquarium increase gradually so that most of the phytoplankton we provide gets consumed.

 

 

At what moment in the photoperiod should I add EasyBooster?

If adding it manually, we recommend spacing out the doses, ideally two hours after the lights are turned on and one hour after the lights have been turned off.

If you will only be dosing once a day, you should do it one hour after the lights have been turned off.

 

If using a dosing pump, you should program it do provide a dose various times a day.

 

 

Once opened, how long does EasyBooster 14 or 28 (single-use bags) maintain its properties?

If only using a portion of the contents of the bag, the rest should be used in the following 24 hours.

 

 

 

Once opened, how long does EasyBooster 25 maintain its properties?

The product will not be altered if you are careful to maintain the bag well closed and sealed, extracting all the air that may have entered the bag.

 

If using EasyBoster 25 as shown in the image, it will be maintained intact during the same period indicated by the expiration date. This is because the suction from the dosing pump compresses the bag preventing any air from entering.

 

Once opened, how long does EasyBooster prof maintain its properties?

EasyBooster prof properties are not altered with respect to its expiration date because the packaging is designed specifically so that oxygen and humidity do not come into contact with the product.

 

Can EasyReefs corals and EasyBooster be used for the same purpose?

Yes, both products have been developed as feed for the base of the aquarium food chain.

 

Are there any advantages to using EasyBooster or EasyReefs Corals?

Yes! Currently, EasyReefs Corals are comprised of a blend of 3 microalgae with a highly effective nutritional profile. However, EasyBooster contains 4 microalgae that guarantee an optimum nutritional profile.

 

EasyReefs Corals is only lyophilized phytoplankton, whereas EasyBooster is phytoplankton suspended in a mineral solution that contributes to the re-establishment of some compounds that are necessary for the aquarium, like magnesium and potassium.

 

EasyBooster can be added to the aquarium automatically through a dosing pump, making it very easy to use compared to preparing the lyophilized product.

 

Can I pour EasyBooster directly over corals?

No. Easybooster is designed to be dispersed in water and act as an activator of the food chain, not as feed for corals. The mineral solution is too concentrated and could damage the animal’s tissues.
