Directions
Feed or dose 5mL per 10 Gallons 3-4 times per week. Every system is different and this is a typical dose.
If your animals do not "clear" the water in less than an hour - back off on the amount you are adding because your systems is not fully digesting all the microalgae.
Broadcast Feeding: Simply add the dose to a high flow area of the tank. It is recommended to turn off your skimmer before adding the algae (2 hours is a good window).
Target Feeding: Dilute 1 part live phytoplankton to 4 parts tank water. Mix thoroughly. Turn off all pumps to allow the tank to go calm. Using a target feeding device, feed your animals. Wait about 30 minutes and then turn everything back on. Target Feeding undiluted product is not advised.
