Practical growing of phytoplankton
- Thread starter LuckyFish
- Start date
can you share some tips? like temp, light cycle, salinity, harvest frequency, fertilizer used, etcJust thought id show my phyto cultures using the traditional 5litre plastic containers.
Thanks to @Blue Reefer for his near daily discussions on how to tweak the production
In the meantime, this is the quality I'm starting to achieve.
thats awesome, how many days did you have to wait for that? if you let it stay abit more does it get darker or crashes?Still tweaking the system, will post more later.

Im now consistently able to achieve this density within 5 days:
I will set up a culture and run it until it crashes to see if there is any benefit running this culture for a longer period, but judging by my massive population of rotifers, I don't think there will be much need to.
Once ive done the experiment ill post pics here.
