Reef Nutrition Phyto Feast 6oz

Product details

Reef Nutrition Phyto Feast 6oz is a refrigerated marine microalgae food designed for filter-feeding organisms in saltwater aquariums. It provides a blend of multiple phytoplankton strains (such as Isochrysis, Tetraselmis, Pavlova, Nannochloropsis, Thalassiosira, and Synechococcus) in particle sizes suited for suspension feeding. Use it as a regular nutritional supplement for animals that capture and consume plankton, such as many corals and other filter feeders.

Features:

• Contains a mixed blend of marine microalgae commonly used in aquaculture settings, including Isochrysis, Tetraselmis, Pavlova, Nannochloropsis, Thalassiosira, and Synechococcus
• Supports feeding of filter feeders by providing microalgae in the 1–15 micron range
• Provides microalgal biomass plus omega-3 fatty acids (omega-3 is guaranteed as a percentage of fatty acids)
• Directions include starting with a low daily dose and adjusting if water “clears” within about an hour
• Can be used for broadcast feeding (high-flow area) or target feeding (diluted, mixed, and delivered gently)
• Refrigerate before and after opening (33–42°F / 1–5°C) and do not freeze
