Quantum Pure Phyto
Quantum Pure Phyto is a pure, marine-based phytoplankton that feeds your corals, clams, and filter feeders the way the ocean does. It delivers natural phytoplankton, phycocyanin extract, and bioavailable energy with no fillers, unwanted nutrients, or heavy metals, just the protein, fats, fatty acids, vitamins, and natural color enhancers your reef can actually use. Round out your tank with the rest of our coral care range and reef nutrition.
Why Feed Phytoplankton
Phytoplankton sits at the base of the reef food web. Your corals need more than the light energy from their zooxanthellae to truly thrive and show their best color. Pure Phyto delivers that missing nutrition directly, feeding SPS, LPS, and soft corals along with clams, sponges, feather dusters, and the copepods and rotifers that round out a healthy reef.

How to Dose
Shake vigorously for 20 to 30 seconds before every use. For broadcast feeding, turn off your skimmer and return pumps, dose to the water column, let corals feed for about 30 minutes, then turn equipment back on.

FAQ
Does Pure Phyto need refrigeration?
Keep it cool and out of direct light, and refrigerate after opening to preserve freshness. Always shake well before use.
Will it cloud my water or feed algae?
Dosed to the recommended rate it clears quickly. Because it contains no fillers or excess nutrients, it feeds your corals rather than nuisance algae.
Can I use it in a fish-only or freshwater tank?
Pure Phyto is formulated for marine reef systems and their filter feeders. It is not intended for freshwater tanks.
How do I get the best coral response?
Turn off the skimmer and return pumps, target or broadcast feed, and let corals feed for about 30 minutes before restarting equipment.
