Not that it matters much.....very few corals directly ingest phyto.....most corals are carnivores and not vegetarians.  With that said, phyto does feed many other species that spawn, and their spawn is good coral food. _________ Curt  | |

There is also Phyto02 and Algegen producing live phyto sold via LFS's.

I feed my Alveopora (flower pot) and open brain cyclopezee. Then feed my tongue coral brine and mysis sometimes. They all seem to love it they are growing nicely and have opened up more since I brought them home. | |
