Refrigeration extends its viability up to 30 days, making it a reliable, potent choice for propagation or direct feeding. ## Description Your purchase of Live Phytoplankton includes one 16 ounce plastic bottle. Nannochloropsis is a beneficial microalgae found throughout the world’s oceans. This live phytoplankton has been cultured from a pure sample cultured in agar, using the industry-standard Guiliard f/2 formula fertilizer to promote exponential growth, high nutrient retention, and longer viability. The genus Nannochloropsis is widely accepted as the standard of reef keeping aquarists, to promote growth and vibrancy of corals, invertebrates, and other livestock. This live phytoplankton may be used as an inoculant to propagate additional quantities, if desired. We adhere to the highest standards of sterile laboratory protocols, to ensure that each bottle of dense, vitamin rich Phytoplankton is contaminant-free. Our phytoplankton is cultured using saltwater made from reverse osmosis deionized resin (RODI) water and Instant Ocean saltwater mix, at a salinity of 1.020 sg. Directions: To obtain best results, we suggest the daily addition of 3-4ml to every 100 gallons of saltwater in your system, pouring directly into the display tank, or associated sump. This phytoplankton may be fed to your livestock directly, in order to target specific recipients, if desired. Storage: To extend the viability of the contents past the 7-day growth cycle, remember to refrigerate contents immediately upon receipt and invert bottle once daily. In this manner, contents should retain potency for up to 30 days. Phytoplankton to be used as an inoculant should be used within 7 days of receipt, to assure maximum density. ## Features - Genus Nannochloropsis Oculata - Perfect for Culture Start/Propagation - Fantastic for All Filter Feeders, Seahorses, Clams, or other invertebrates ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0727S8Z55 | | ASIN | B0727S8Z55 | | Brand Name | Mercer of Montana | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (57) | | Date First Available | April 28, 2017 | | Item Form | Liquid | | Liquid Volume | 16 fluid ounces | | Manufacturer | Mercer of Montana, LLC | | Manufacturer | Mercer of Montana, LLC | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 9 x 3 x 3 inches; 1.6 pounds | | Target Species | Seahorse | | UPC | 706098555728 | | Unit Count | 16 Fluid Ounces | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Mercer of Montana - **Item Form:** Liquid - **Liquid Volume:** 16 fluid ounces - **Number of Packs:** 1 - **Unit Count:** 16 Fluid Ounces ## Images ![Nannochloropsis Phytoplankton (16oz) Cultured by Mercer of Montana - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51tnD4YyFNL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: When opening the bottle it has a funny smell to it just wondering if that’s normal for it to have a weird odor?** A: I’m pretty sure that’s normal, but if the color is way off and it smells REALLY foul it may have died in transit..
