phytoplankton culture

[nanoreefer]

the first time it might take a wile but wonce you get going and start spliting them they should grow realy well or die, ive had mine crash afew times now i dont think miracle grow is ideal food but its all i have, ive had some going realy dark green(couldent see light threw em)for two months its either realy easy or realy hard, is there stuff collecting in the bottom of the bottles? you need to shake them every day to get the stuff off the bottom until it starts to grow, also i dont think light length realy matters i turn mine on when i get up and off when i go to bed i think it mostley matters what culture you start with and your source water, i use tap water out of a well with high calcium ALK and PH and TDS about 130
