I do not need monoculture of specific strain, mix will do.

If you are in Calgary and have some green water in sea aquarium, please contact me at ivanivanca@yahoo.com

Thanks for your advices,

IMO one type of phyto will always beat the other type when using multiple strains of phyto

because in the long term nutrient intake from a bigger strain ( I think will win) you will want to stick to one type of phyto to culture IMO

multiple cultures/single when bought are more for people that add it right away or with in a month because it loses it's nutritional value every week imo

which refrigeration and lack of light/(flow I think) slows down phyto's growth
