Our Phytoplankton Blend is an excellent addition to the bottom of the food chain in your aquarium’s ecosystem. It is ideal for feeding small aquatic creatures such as: copepods, rotifers, corals, oysters, clams, and brine shrimp.  This is the same product we feed our own cultures at Canada Copepods.

Each bottle contains an equal mix of Tetraselmis and Nannochloropsis in a saltwater base.

Approximate Cell Count: 50 billion

Our phytoplankton blend is an excellent addition to the bottom of the food chain in your aquarium’s ecosystem.  It is ideal for feeding small aquatic creatures such as: copepods, rotifers, osyters, clams, and brine shrimp.

This blend is sterile and will not reproduce. Adding phytoplankton to your tank that has the ability to reproduce can be dangerous as it self-propagates, especially if your tank is exposed to direct sunlight. Our phytoplankton is the same at the cellular level, and has the same nutrients, but it cannot reproduce. Bottled phytoplankton must be kept refrigerated (will keep for 2 months) or frozen (will keep for 2 years).

To feed your tank, add 1-2 ml per 20 gallons in your tank, every couple of days.

We use our phytoplankton blend on our own cultures daily at Canada Copepods.
