Solid information here. I used to grow phyto a handful of years ago but never tinkered with different stands of plankton. I may have to give it a shot again now that you guys are supplying this line of products. It's a fun thing to get into for home aquaculture.

How long do these products last once opened and in the refrigerator?

Such a cool video. I have always been interested in utilizing phyto to keep basket stars and feather stars long-term, so I will definitely check these products out!

I was very interested to learn how phyto uses metals and minerals basically produce nutrition for marine life. I also love the single strain idea for home aquaculture.

Man, you guys got me wanting to get all three.
I didn't know much about macroalgae. I knew there was different species but I didn't realize each one has different benefits.

I like to add phytoplankton every now and then but I never realized how much work these little critters actually do!

Bonus entry:
I'm very interested to learn about the role of microalgae in the ocean ecosystem. The ability to cultivate different breeds of phytoplankton for specific purposes is fascinating. As others have pointed out, its appreciated that you separate the strains and encourage people to grow their own colonies. Kudos TSA!

Daily Video Talk Bonus - It was video to showcase your phytoplankton products. The video also gave a good explanation of these live feeds.
