SRC Member vagabond Posted June 15, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted June 15, 2004 Hi guys, Would like to share with you a product which I recently bought. It is a small bottle but with huge amount of concentration. This product is a very concentrated micro algae paste feed. It comes in 30ml a bottle and cost about $10+. The paste is easy to scoop out and the amount needed is very little. Only 1ml of paste per 100 gallons of tank volume and best is that 68 billion cells per ml Can't imagine how much we can save in long run as compared to using the current favourite products. I am in no relation with them and if you are interested to know more, I think the website as printed on the bottle is Aquaz. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeepBlue Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 just got hold of one today.....cant wait to try it. Thanks for the info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member Wei Posted June 15, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted June 15, 2004 I have also got a bottle of the phytoplankton @ $10. It cannot be used to start a new culture of phyto. But at this price & concentration, it is definately cheaper than culturing yrself. Compared to Bioplankton, it only have a single strain Nanno only. I used it solely for my rotifer culture. Theres also Supreme blend which have Nanno, Pavlova, Thalassiosira and Tetraselmis which is more suitable for reef. Definately a good alternative to other more ex brand. Haha, can de-commission my phyto culture station. Wei Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member Chris Posted June 16, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted June 16, 2004 I just got hold of a bottle and used it a few time. Before that, I haved tried powdered Phyto, DT and home cultured phyto. I would say the Aquaz phyto supercede them in terms of value and quality. In terms of quality, it is definitely more concentrated than thosed powdered forms. Compared to home cultured phyto, it is more concentrated and for the price of about $10, which can be used for 30,000 gal of water, it cost less than the cost of culturing them yourself. Compared to DT, it has only one strain (same as old DT) but the big price difference means it is a good alternative for the budget reefer. It is also easy to use. A metal spoon will easily scoop out the frozen paste. Mix it with your tank water and it transform into the familar green water. Not as brownish as Bioplankton, but more greenish.

SRC Member odi Posted June 16, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted June 16, 2004 Just got a bottle for myself too. Now I pay less for more. Used to buy 'home-made' cultured phytos from fellow reefers. I think that this is a high quality value for money product which makes 'sense' to buy. However, I do hope that there would be more info on the bottle. Got my info from the Aquaz website. Bet it would make the product even more sellable. Looking forward to try more Aquaz products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
