Hi Guys,
this is my first time posting in this forum....
I have a 10 gal tank right now with some chaeto algea that it is sitting there with light, heater and a small filter...the tank is not connected to any other tanks......i am at the moment seeding some rock and half of this algea will go for a seahorse tank and half for a sps tank.....so for now I need to make sure i try to keep and add as many pods as possible, but I also need to make sure i keep them alive as there is not detrius coming from a tank like most refuges would......so I found this product:
description:
Phytoplan is a spray-dried blend of several strains of phytoplankton. The intact cells aren`t living, but when rehydrated, they are a microencapsulated source of color-enhancing beta-carotene and astaxanthin pigments, vitamins, amino acids and essential fatty acids. A concentrated food, much more economical to use than live phytoplankton. High in DHA. Ideal for filter feeding invertebrates like soft and stony corals, anemones, feather duster worms, clams, sponges, and turnicates. PhytoPlan simulates food webs in closed aquariuium ecosystems and, with daily addition, promotes the development of zooplankton. Soak dried foods in PhytoPlan to boost nutrition value.
Should I use this to feed the pods?......any other ideas that are probably better?....I dont want to overfeed pods.......
Thanks for your inputs
