More Information

Biological stability through zooplankton

The microfauna, consisting of amphipods, copepods & co, is an essential component in every ecosystem. From the puddle to the ocean: microorganisms perform important functions and form a nutritious basis in the food web. By adding zooplankton and phytoplankton together to the saltwater aquarium, you can very quickly build up a robust microfauna population and achieve biological stability.


Recommendation

We recommend the combined use with regular phytoplankton dosing to establish a stable copepod population in the tank.
