Selling any pods this week? If so what kind

Hello! Yes, I raise Tigriopsis, Tisbe, and Apocyclops copepods. I sell a mix of the three species. 12oz is $12, and 24oz is $23. If one bottle of pods ships with 16oz or 32oz of phyto, there is no shipping charge because they will fit in the same package. If one or two bottles of pods ships with 64oz of phyto, there is a $6 shipping charge. And, of the pods ship alone, shipping is $9 for one or two bottles, or $14 for three to five bottles. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

What's the price for the Phyto? And what is the dosage sizing?

What's the price for the Phyto? And what is the dosage sizing?

Hello! The pricing is in the first post of this thread. Please let me know if you have any questions.

It is pretty difficult to overdose live phyto. In short, almost any amount added on a consistent basis will be beneficial. The organisms that consume it will grow and multiply to a point of equilibrium. This will be very beneficial to the system. The phyto feeds some organisms (including some corals) directly, and other organisms and corals consume the increased pods, offspring, and microorganisms that multiply because of the increased phytoplankton available. The phyto also consumes nutrients until it is consumed itself. Basically, the more the better in my opinion.

Having said that, I usually recommend starting to dose at 3ml/10gallons of system volume per day. This will actually give you more phyto cells than most other brands because I grow and ship the phyto at much denser levels than most growers. As you observe, you can increase this amount by several times if you want (my smallest system is a 40 breeder with 20 sump, and I dose about 150ml/day). Or, a smaller amount would be okay too.

Fresh live phyto will keep for quite a while in the fridge. It is best to give it a gentle shake once a day. For the first month, there really isn’t any noticeable change. During the second month, the motile cells become less active, but there is still a fair amount of activity. By the end of the third month, there isn’t really any activity, but the cells are still intact. If a new culture is started with the three-month old sample, it will grow and some of the cells will be motile. So, using the phyto within a month would be ideal, within two months is fine, and even three months is probably okay.

Can I get single strains in 32 ounce bottles? If so I would like the following.

Thalassiosira weissflogii, Chlorella, Dunaliella (tertiolecta), and Pavlova

Hello! I can do all of those except the TW. I had a mis-hap this week and killed my current TW culture. It will be a few weeks before I have the TW up to speed. Sorry I can't provide it all this week. Please let me know if you would like the others. Thanks!

TAKING ORDERS FOR NEXT WEEK. The pods need to re-populate, so I won't be able to take any new pod orders this week (subscriptions will be fille). I am traveling this week, so my responses may be a little slow. I will harvest on Monday and ship on Tuesday. As always, 100% satisfaction guaranteed.
