We have a small 35 gallon Salt water tank with fish and soft corals with a few inverts. I have faithfully used this product every morning since I got it. I think my tank is thriving and I am sure it has to do with this product. I will continue to use it. I like the price too. Easy to add to the tank too. Everything in the tank is happy and healthy. I will continue to use this and recommend it to my friends with salt water tanks if I had any friends with salt water tanks! At one time I had 7 salt water tanks with thr biggest one being 75 gallons. Since I have gotten older I had to downsize but I would have used this product in all my fish tanks if I still had them.
Happy reef tank; watch out for shipping delays!

We have a 200g and a 75g salt tank, and both seem to thrive when dosed with this phytoplankton. Nothing wrong with giving the tanks a bit of a helping hand - having a slice of mother nature in your living room isn't an easy thing to do! Nutrient levels seems to remain very stable while dosing; I'll be adding this to a regular dosing regement. Shipping packaging was done very well - a styrafoam cooler with a few ice packs inside, however, watch out for FedEx delaying delivery, especially in this hot summer heat down south!
Best to feed pods, not necessarily fish and coral
I got this product thinking it would be good to feed my saltwater fish and coral, especially my coral, but after I received it my saltwater fish guy said it really
I got this product thinking it would be good to feed my saltwater fish and coral, especially my coral, but after I received it my saltwater fish guy said it really wasn’t appropriate for my tank since I don’t really have pods. He said it wouldn’t hurt anything, but it really wasn’t the best thing for me to feed them. It’s hard for me to write a really good review cause I really don’t know if the product was something I should’ve gotten. Feeling pretty dumb right now…
Decent phytoplankton blend, does the job
I got this to try out a new live feed for my tank. It arrived fairly quickly and the liquid looked nice and green, which is always a good sign for live cultures. Overall,
I got this to try out a new live feed for my tank. It arrived fairly quickly and the liquid looked nice and green, which is always a good sign for live cultures. Overall, it seems like a pretty average product. It isn't anything mind-blowing, but my filter feeders and corals seem to react well enough when I add it. The price point is okay for a live culture, though it can get a bit pricey if you have a larger setup and need to dose frequently. It is just a solid, straightforward product that does what it is supposed to do. I might buy it again if it is on sale, but it is mostly just a normal part of the routine now.
Phytoplankton
Fishies and corals seem to enjoy the phytoplankton. When the phytoplankton arrived it was still cool to the touch. Chewy packed the phytoplankton very well especially
Fishies and corals seem to enjoy the phytoplankton. When the phytoplankton arrived it was still cool to the touch. Chewy packed the phytoplankton very well especially for this time of year.

Great Phytoplankton Blend for Coral, Pods and Fish
Dinkins Aquatic Gardens Live Phytoplankton Blend is an amazing product! After about a month of use, I can tell the difference with my coral and overall tank health
Dinkins Aquatic Gardens Live Phytoplankton Blend is an amazing product! After about a month of use, I can tell the difference with my coral and overall tank health. The product is great to feed pods and smaller nano tank fish. The phytoplankton also has a great refrigerator shelf life, as long as its shaken daily as other blends do as well. Would definitely recommend this product over most other phytoplankton blends!
Phytoplankton may be good but the shipping is not
The phytoplankton received is dark green color which suggests that it was a good culture. However, the culture smelled like rotten fish so the culture was expired
The phytoplankton received is dark green color which suggests that it was a good culture. However, the culture smelled like rotten fish so the culture was expired when I received it. I didn't use it in my tank cause I don't want to risk it. For reference, I live in Texas and it is about 100 degree daily. When I received the product, the bottle is very hot so the culture probably went bad during the shipping.
Beautiful dark green color
My product arrived in a timely manner and was packaged very well in Styrofoam container with ice packs to ensure live arrival. It is beautiful dark green which
My product arrived in a timely manner and was packaged very well in Styrofoam container with ice packs to ensure live arrival. It is beautiful dark green which makes me confident it will be an asset in my reef tank.
Excellent supplement
Excellent supplement for our reef fish. It feels great to be able to give them a fresh option vs the frozen food we typically give them. Will be a repeat customer
