Starting Phyto Culture - Podcast Episode 71

Well, after much feedback and commentary around the Phyto Culturing video, i realized one main thing i left out was how to start the culture. well in this video i highlight how to do this using liquid starter culture. THis process is the same using culture disks, but since the liquid is a bit new and seemed to be more confusing i decided to go this route



Or click here to download the individual episode
And Please consider taking the listener survey

Perfect timing Rob. I ordered all my stuff ealier this week. So by next week I will start my first phyto culture. I purchased Nano FAF. I am sorry I didn't support Algagen, but I wanted to get the plankton collector and phyto at the same place to save on shipping. I will however get the isocrysis from them if all goes well.

Thanks Again Rob!!!

No, it is Video. It should be called phyto culturing Video 1. and rename the last one #2.

Not yet, but I am going to attempt it both ways from the getgo. one with the micro algae gro stuff from Florida Aqua farms and one with MG.

I am kinda trying it. Melev updated his site since I'd been there last. I had emailed him with a question on it, because I was thinking that my splitting it once a week was causing an accumulation of Miracle-Gro.

He said he splits every 4-6 weeks. I went two weeks without crashing, I ended up splitting it to replace what I used. Boy, it got nice and dark too.

Now, I am thinking about buying the discs to start Isocrysis. If I do that, I'll probably switch to Micro Algae Grow. Florida Aqua Farms has it in bigger bottles than the 8.5oz.

Rob was that liquid culture directly off Algagen's site or Aquatic Ecosystems linked from Algagen?
