Tropic Marin Phyton

Phyton is a plankton substitute with a small food particle size and is perfect for soft corals and mussels. The ingredients spirulina and brewer's yeast provide your corals with important B vitamins and carotenoids.

Do corals need food?

Not directly. Thanks to the many single-celled algae (= zooxanthellae) that are embedded in the coral tissue, corals can feed indirectly from light. The symbiotic algae release various sugars to the coral that they produce during photosynthesis. The algae, in turn, need nutrients to maintain their metabolism. They can get these from the excretions of the reef fish in your aquarium, for example. It is therefore not possible to survive without nutrients.

Why feeding corals in the aquarium is important

To ensure that your corals look beautifully colorful, stay healthy and, above all, grow, you should feed them. Regular feeding means that fewer symbiotic algae are deposited in the tissue. This makes the coral appear more colorful because the color pigments are more visible. It has also been proven that corals that are fed additionally are less susceptible to bleaching or other diseases. They also have more energy available for growth.

Application and dosage of Phyton

Add one measuring spoon (found in the can) to 200 - 500 liters of aquarium water twice a day. To do this, soak the amount in a cup of aquarium water shortly beforehand and then distribute it in the aquarium.
