algae barn

would I get this product for dino control and does it work for algae control?

I set this tank up in January. Is this normal getting this amount of pods in 5-6 months? Things I did, I used pods/phyto from algae barn right after the tank cycle was complete. Got the refugium up and running on month 2. And during the initial tank set up. After the cycle of course. I also got...

Hello All! I am a big fan of @AlgaeBarn and love their products. Recently got a 4 pack of ecopods to seed my new reef and thought it looked a bit thin. Is this typical density youve experienced? I probably just got used to seeing RN pods dense in those tiny bottles, kinda like a trick of they...

I have a subscription to algae barn for pods and phyto that arrive once a month. I started dosing a few months back when I needed to beat by dinos. My tank isn't that big so I don't dose the phyto that much like maybe 5 ml a day before leaving for work. I wanted to know does Phyto have an...

Hello, I just set up a new lagoon style frag tank. It is two 20G tanks plumbed into a 36G sump. I am attempting a clear bottom build and only have 10lbs of miracle mud for substrate in the sump. I took about 50lbs rock from a tank that's been running for 20 years, cleaned it up and cooked it for...

Hi I’m wondering if anybody can identify these little critters that I’m finding in my refugium is it something I should worry about?

Let me start off saying I live in North Dakota, it’s December, and it’s cold (averaging 0-15 degrees outside). My first order of 4oz chateo from Algae Barn came with the bag open reeking of dead material with the majority of the algae ball brown and translucent. AB generously re-shipped...

After 20 years off and on (mostly off) running a 46 gal bow front reef tank, I found myself moving to a bigger house about a mile and a half away from my original house. With the daunting prospect of moving my tank and re-setting up I saw this as a perfect opportunity to get a larger tank to...

Hi, A soft algae-like something has appeared in my coral tank since yesterday.:eek: (mov. 1) I'm afraid that it might be dinos. :confused: I took the piece of it and poured oxydol on it, but its color did not change. (mov. 2) I've heard If it's dinos, it turns purple. Is it unlikely that...

After reading, researching, watching videos, and challenging myself, I’m in the process of switching from a 75 gallon discus tank to a reef tank. Well, at first it will be fish until I can maintain stable parameters for coral, but a reef tank is the long view. I spent a few months...

Hey y'all the CADE 1200 came in today! I would like to give thanks to Algae Barn for this amazing opportunity and would like to personally thank each and every member involved in the special post. Also, I would like to personally thank Rudy, a fellow Niners fan, for helping me place the tank/...

I am a first time reefer getting started with a CADE REEF 600 S2. I have had previous fresh water tanks and wanted to try my hand at a mixed reef tank. Started my research on Red Sea AIO tanks, but then I came across the CADE systems. I liked the aluminum and glass stand, built in ATO, and pre...

Just received some red ogo from Algae Barn and it is green, translucent, and neon. This can’t be healthy? Has anyone else had this happen? What can I do? I trimmed all of the neon parts out, but left the rest in the tank in hopes that it is still alive.

I received my order from Algae barn of CS and cheato and there were white shells,rocks,snails??? I’ve Contacted algae barn twice within 24 hours and have not got any feedback with my information and pictures that I sent them. Can anybody tell me what this is. I currently have my macro allergies...

Order was placed Saturday near midnight. I got an email sunday saying my order was “processed.” Have not received yet or any other tracking info. Charge has been posted on my credit card. Supposed to be 2-3 day priority mail. I have an order number but after logging into the website, it says i...

Well guys I decided to place another order with @AlgaeBarn for a gang of pods: 2 - Tisbee, 3 - Tigger, and 2 - nano brine. I had an issue with an order in the past (they took care of everything without issue), but had felt that at that time I wouldn't do any other orders because I really...

I have two Biota captive-bred Mandarins, but recently learned they were both males unfortunately (Algae Barn messed up). I've had him over a year but he's starting to get aggressive towards the other male so I need to sell him even though it really bums me out. He's big and fat - he eats...

I'm about to start my new tank up; might fill today or tomorrow. I will be running Chaeto in the fuge to home some pods and to export nutrients. It's set up with a big ol' Kessil grow light. I intended on grabbing some from Algea Barn with some pods. Sold Out. I then went to look at...

@AlgaeBarn Picked up a pack of pods and phyto - I have used th pods straight away and am adding phyto as I go. The use by date is not expired but the phyto doesn’t have the same ‘perfume’ as when I just got it. It’s been kept in the fridge as recommended. Is it still alive? Have nutritional...

It is all too often we hear bad things about companies but rarely good things. So I wanted to take a minute and give a shout out to AlgaeBarn for going the extra mile to help me out. They don't just say they care about the pods in your tank they mean it. Thanks to AlgaeBarn for looking out for...

Long story short I did not know the Algae Barn shipping dates and when I ordered it last week I missed the cutoff time. So it shipped this week and I was out of town working and I had my daughter temp acclimate the pods and add the phytoplankton. Here's where things went bad. She added the two...
