Phytoplankton How To - Super charge your reef tank!

An in depth discussion on phytoplankton, how to culture it, how to harvest it and when! We discuss benefits, costs pro's and cons of buy vs roll your own and the different types that are available. In this video I team up with my friend and local reefer Anthony and we related our successes and failures with raising food for our beloved reefs. Join us and we welcome an in depth discussion as we don't know it all and are ready to learn from you as well!
