Cell sizes ranges from 7 to 20μm.

This is a user-friendly, ready-to-use product! You just have to open-it and pour it directly on your aquarium or live feed culture.

 Aqua Phyto might need to be resuspended, just gently invert the closed flask for a maximum performance. 

Phytoplankton – or microalgae – are puny primitive plants that appear naturally in the ocean. There are different species, divided by different colour categories: green, brown, golden, blue and red.

Chaetoceros calcitrans is a natural occurring phytoplankton that has a mean size of 20μm. Despite being a diatom, this specie is will not form a biofilm in your aquarium glass.

This is not a simple algae to deal with, but we managed to conquer it!

This is a golden diatom that naturally has a high nutritional profile, specially omega-3 and omega-6 content and vitamins.

Scientists use it to breed clams and it’s commonly referred that other animals can feed on simpler culture phytoplankton, such as Tetraselmis sp. and Nannochloropsis sp. They do feed on them – that’s true – but those algae do not cater the correct nutrition, like Chaetoceros calcitrans does.

Why settle for less?
