Feed it this week

Cultured in our lab and harvested the day it ships. This is the right answer while you work out what your tank actually eats.

Live Copepods

Five species. Tisbe and Tigriopus work the rock and sand where a mandarin picks, Apocyclops stays in the water column for corals.

Live Rotifers

The first food marine fry can actually fit in their mouths, and a staple for filter feeders.

A$40.00 Out of stock

Live Zooplankton

A mixed bag of pods, rotifers, ciliates and phyto. For biodiversity rather than one target.

Live Nannochloropsis Phytoplankton

The workhorse. Feeds pods, rotifers, clams and corals, and it is what most people start with.

A$30.00 Out of stock

Ultramix Live Phytoplankton

Nanno, Isochrysis and Tetraselmis in one bottle, for a broader nutrient profile than any single strain.

Bacteria Pro

Live bacteria for cycling a new tank, recovering after a crash, or pushing nitrate down.

Grow it yourself

A starter culture and a bottle of fertiliser costs about what a few deliveries do, and then it keeps going. The reactors on the Cultureware page are built for exactly this.
