For the past 3 months, I have been cultivating my own phytoplankton. I am seeing great results from my tanks. My mushrooms and zoanthids are plumper, along with seeing more vibrant colors on my SPS and LPS Corals.

And now I plan to sale in bulk and in limited quantities.

At the moment, I am cultivating Nannochloropsis. Tetraselmis, Isochrysis I am planning on growing copepods later.

I am just trying to move what I don't use. Batches will be filtered and bottled at the time of purchase to maintain freshness.

Shipping is expensive due to the packaging and weight involved. The best deal I plan to promote will be a gallon or larger quantities

You are welcome to mix and match. My preference is to sell one gallon at a time, which is equivalent to four individual quarts.

Price Breakdown Shipped.

1 quart starting out at $25.00 Shipped. Additional quarts will be $10 each and included to the same package.
1 gallon for $50 shipped. Will receive 4 individual quart bottles.


I determine each batch density and also confirm correct species through microscope verification and Secchi testing. Kindly examine the pictures the picture of what looks like a large green glob was actually a video of Nannochloropsis that I had to screenshot. Nannochloropsis is actually the largest Phyto in size.

There will only be a limited amount available. I am not aiming to make a significant amount of money. I would rather avoid flushing what I don't use and am not interested in keeping it in a fridge.

I am not going to recommend any feeding than the typical .5 Oz per 50gallons every other day. But for my system I am dosing 2Oz per 50 gallons every other day. Shelf life is pretty good. Recommend shaking up the bottle every couple of days.

Feedback for all other listings has been positive I don’t see any reason why this would be any different.

Will not hold unless payment is received. Orders will be shipped based on who paid first. I will let everyone know when the next batch is ready. In the event I received payment, or someone wanted to adjust their order If I do not have enough phytoplankton to be shipped, I will refund your money and notify you.

At the moment, I am working on label designs so photo of bottles will change.

Please check out my other listings too for Chaeto.

Thank you,
Christopher

Just wanted to let everyone know all 3 gallons of phytoplankton are sold. If you are interested I'll have more ready in about 3 weeks. I am now doing $50 gallon shipped.

I ask everyone to kindly leave reviews in the thread in the coming months.

I would also like to encourage everyone to take pictures before and after to truly document their reef aquarium changes and to help show the benefits of dosing / feeding Phyto.

Thank you to everyone who made a purchase.

Christopher

Ready to move!

1 gallon is being shipped tonight. I have 2 gallons of plankton for sale. My next batch will be ready in 3 or so weeks.

$50 per gallon shipped. 4 induvial quarts.
Ground and two-day shipping is factored in. I am willing to cover cost of 2-day shipping if it isn't more than $20.00 Some Western states such as Ca, Or, Wa residents are $30.00 for 2-day. If that's the case $60.00.

Right now, safe to ship out ground depends on the temperatures.

So far positive reviews on the plankton. Guarantee fresh batch! 3 total strands. Growing 2 additional now.

Any questions please message me.

Thank You,
