Easy reefs Easyphyt: The Ideal Growing Medium for Phytoplankton

Easyphyt is a specially formulated culture medium developed by Easy Reefs for small and medium scale phytoplankton cultivation. It is based on the classic Guillard's F/2 formula, making it suitable for cultivating various phytoplankton species including Tetraselmis, Nannochloropsis, Isochrysis and Rhodomonas.

For the cultivation of diatoms, such as Phaeodactylum or Chaetoceros, it is recommended to use a specific culture medium rich in silicates for optimal growth.
