It's crazy the way that placing the samples under a microscope reveals so much. Definitely next level documentation for sure. Great video and by the way, live the Meateater book in your desk.☺👍
Was the 6th of April immediately after the culture was made and the sample was at 78 degrees? If this sample was slowly heated to 78 degrees would the phyto begin to move? I think the process just slows down in the dark refrigerator. A drop of F2 and a little light and those boys would be kickin again!
hi there, how much magnification to see phytoplankton for reef food? i just plan to bu cheap microscope juis to see the quaility of rotifera or pytho when i keep on refrigerator
Hey Travis, I've harvested my first batch on the 10th day. I separated them into 2 separate sterilized containers into the refrigerator. I come to grab something out of the refrigerator and saw that separation at the surface you were talking about in the beginning. Why would that be? I know it might be hard to pinpoint exactly why from your perspective. ( could have been an error on my part) but, figured that separation as it got older. This was a fresh 10th day batch... nice color in the container too. Any help is appreciated.
@@DogFacePuffa cool cool. I figured so it was settling. I was scared because it did look like it had an oil look inside surface. I'll continue to shake. Still looks healthy and doesn't smell bad.
@@neilphillips3193 On the website it says: My personal Nannochloropsis Phytoplankton made in house using RO/DI water. I dose 50ml every other day to the 500 gallon system. I find that phytoplankton helps promote better polyp extension, stronger acropora and faster growth. So they are: Nannochloropsis ?
@@juliandiaz44 if its Nannochloropsis it is non flangelea and in fact reduces nitrates which contradicts the video indicating it increases nutrients....
Adam H. These aren’t Nannochloropsis though. These are obviously highly motile, and Nannochloropsis isn’t mobile- they literally don’t possess the flagella required for movement

This is so informative!!! Fantastic reporting!🌻🌼🐝
Would be intresting to see if an acclimation to 78 degrees would make a diffrence in activity. Oh and my shipment of phyto was kicking.

What microscope are you using? It's nice, thank you for your video's
I had in quite cool ridge for 2 months and started new culture many times from this time span

Love the coffee mug!
I bought mine off the shelf from the LFS, it wasn’t stored in a fridge or anything does this mean it’s no good?
If it smells like rotten eggs it's no good. I'm sure it's fine
loving the FPV quad
What type of microscope is used and what is the × size of the lenses?
Nice...the Steven Rinellla Meat Eater cook book.
That coffee mug is awesome!

Its just settling. Give it a shake every day or every couple of days. Yes it will settle even if it is a new batch.

How can preserve phytoplankton with Lugo's solution , sir please reply
can you add phyto to a tank with a ammonium spike???
Is there any way to make it multiply in the reef tank ?
so is this dead phyto similar to the reef nutrition one then?
What is the model of the Microscope.
Can you please give me a link to where I can find your microscope
Hey Travis- emailed you about your video. Wondering if you got it or it got stuck in your spam folder.
Thanks!
i get 50 to 100 emails a day man, its nothing personal
FishOfHex Aquatics no worries- didn’t think you were ignoring me. Something you might want to see though. Thanks!
Gr8. Is it Bad to Dose dead Phyto came like Seachem Phyto from.LFS from Water Chemsitry pov. ? What could be hazards ?
What species of phytoplankton are you using in this video?
Appears to be Tetraselmis based on size, shape and motility.

Julian Diaz that ID is currently being verified but those in the video are definitely not nannochloropsis.
Pretty sure its a tetraselmis and no nannochlaropsis. Nannochlaropsis doesnt move like this, tetraselmis does.
@@juliandiaz44 if its Nannochloropsis it is non flangelea and in fact reduces nitrates which contradicts the video indicating it increases nutrients....
What if I just use the bottom of the bottle part, instead of shaking it up
then you would add a concentrated dose of living and dead phyto.
Science 🧪
Will filter socks pull the phyto out of the water column. I have the fleece filter socks.
Nannocloropsis phyto are 2-4 micron. Compare this to the micron size of your filter sock.
These appear to be Tetraselmis, so around 5-8 microns. Check the pore size on your socks
Adam H. These aren’t Nannochloropsis though. These are obviously highly motile, and Nannochloropsis isn’t mobile- they literally don’t possess the flagella required for movement
I left mine in the mailbox for god knows how long 😣 I put it in the fridge and after a day it was smelling funky 🥴
yea dont do that
This liberal found your video useful👍
I’ve arrived lol
Maybe don't show off your ignorance with your coffee mugs mate.
