Help With Live Rock Feeding

[[email protected]]

I was in my local SW Fish Store, and I was being bartered to buy a
16oz bottle of Phytoplankton for $17. Does this work? Is this a good
deal? I am looking for general opinions? If you do a search on ebay
you will see some other brands, has anyone had any experiences with
these? Is there a chemical make up that is better then another. I
have a 30g SW Tank with 15# of live rock, that has been in there for
about 2 months.

Thank you,
Adam

DT's Live Phytoplankton will feed the tiny bugs on your Live
Rock and some corals and even clams. I used to buy my
bottles at the LFS, but it was cheaper to grow my own.

Thank you for your replys. I guess I am going to ask a question that
has probably been asked about 1000 times, but where is the cheapest
place to buy DT's? Has anyone done any research on this? Also I
noticed that some of these brands need to be refridgerated. Does
DT's?

Thanks,
Adam

DTs does need to be kept refrigerated. Its the only live concentrated phyto on
the market. Its pricy, but its by far the best product on the market. The stuff
is washed a few times before its concentrated, which removes all of the nasty
stuff that is used to grow phyto. Not just the phosphates and nitrates, but all
of the nasty metals that tend to build over time in our tanks. I have a lot of
experience in growing phyto, but I choose not to, because I know whats going in
my tanks when using home grown stuff.
