- Coral feeding and nutrition supplementation
- Copepod and amphipod culture systems
- Refugiums and natural filtration systems
- Mandarin dragonets and other planktivore fish
- SPS and LPS coral tanks
- Commercial breeding operations
Pro Tips:
- Always dilute Easyroti in a separate container with culture water before adding to your rotifer tank. This ensures even distribution and prevents concentrated pockets that rotifers can't utilize efficiently.
- Watch the color of your rotifer culture. It should stay light green. If it becomes clear and yellowish, rotifers have consumed all the algae and need more food immediately.
- For automated dosing, set your pump to deliver several smaller doses throughout the day rather than one large dose. This keeps rotifers constantly fed and maximizes reproduction.
- Store Easyroti pouches upright in a cool, dark cabinet. Even though refrigeration isn't required, keeping it cool (under 25°C) extends optimal quality.
- When starting a new rotifer culture, follow the day-by-day protocol exactly for the first cycle. Once you gain experience, you can adjust based on the green color intensity of your culture.
Dosage & Usage Instructions:
For Rotifer Cultures:
See detailed day-by-day protocol in the included rotifer culture guide.
Generally:
- Days 1-2: 4ml Easyroti per feeding
- Day 3: 8ml Easyroti per feeding
- Days 4+: 6-8ml Easyroti per feeding
- Production cultures: 8ml per 0.5L daily harvest
For Reef Aquariums:
Dose according to tank size and coral/filter feeder load. Start conservatively and increase based on system response.
Important Application Tips:
- Always dilute Easyroti in culture water before adding to ensure proper dispersion
- Distribute dosage throughout the day for best results
- Can be used with automated dosing pumps
- Add gently to avoid disturbing sediment in cultures
Two Premium Microalgae Species:
Nannochloropsis gaditana (80%):
- Exceptionally rich in EPA and ARA fatty acids
- High-quality omega-3 content
- Natural vitamins and antioxidants
- Primary nutrition source for rotifer growth
Tetraselmis chuii (20%):
- High antioxidant content (Superoxide Dismutase, Catalase, Glutathione Peroxidase)
- Excellent digestibility for rotifers and zooplankton
- Rich in PUFAs, polysaccharides, and natural pigments
- Increases rotifer fertility - critical for population growth
Revolutionary Packaging Technology:
- Oxygen-Free Design: The flexible pouch compresses as the product is dispensed, preventing air from entering and oxidizing the phytoplankton.
- No Refrigeration Needed: Light-blocking, oxygen-blocking packaging maintains full nutritional properties at room temperature.
- Unchanged Shelf Life: Unlike other products, the expiration date remains the same even after opening and repeated use.
Storage Instructions:
Store in a dark, dry, cool place. Storage temperature should not exceed 25°C (77°F). During the summer months, store in a climate-controlled room.
No refrigeration required:
Expiration date remains unchanged after opening.
Shelf Life:
Check the package for the expiration date. Innovative packaging maintains quality throughout the entire shelf life.
