Application and dosage of Phaeodactylum sp.

Shake the bottle well before use. To feed your reef inhabitants, 50 ml per 100 liters per day is sufficient. Always store the bottle in a cool, dark place (refrigerator).

Notes on the cultivation of Phaeodactylum sp.

Phaeodactylum belongs to the group of diatoms, which require silicate for their growth. Therefore, be sure to use a silicate component in the fertilizer for cultivation. According to the literature, the cultures also tolerate moderate temperatures (5 - 20 °C) very well.

Information on delivery times for live plankton

We only send you "ready to harvest" plankton - that is, a culture with a high density and free of fertilizer. The optimal time of bottling can delay the delivery time. If we are unable to provide an express delivery on your desired delivery date, we will contact you to arrange further arrangements. In standard shipping, we generally only send the plankton on Mondays or Tuesdays so that the shipment arrives before the weekend.
