Zoo-Plasm Freshwater Plankton

AlgaGen is proud to introduce the first of its kind, as well as the first in a new line of products for Team AlgaGen; Bio-actiV Freshwater Plankton™; a product that contains both live freshwater copepods and ostracods. These copepods and ostracods are detritivores and will consume excess detritus, biological debris, minimizing nutrient problems that can lead to poor water quality and algae blooms. The copepods and ostracods will penetrate nooks and crevices of substrate as well as live on the roots of plants. As mentioned, these microcrustaceans will consume detritus, serve as a natural source of food, and contribute to the diversity of the tank ecosystem, creating a greater level of tank Bio-actiV Freshwater Plankton™.

These microcrustaceans may also be a great source of food for larval fish and axolotls.

We recommend adding Bio-actiV Freshwater Plankton™ to your tank in its entirety at least once per month.

Products are packaged the day they are ordered and have a shelf life of approximately 5-6 weeks.

Do not refrigerate.
