Rhodomonas lens is a highly nutritious live phytoplankton strain valued in reef aquariums and aquaculture for its rich pigment content and exceptional nutritional profile.
This strain contains the powerful pigment phycoerythrin, which contributes to its deep red coloration and is known to support enhanced coloration in corals, reef fish, and live foods when passed through the food chain. Rhodomonas lens is an excellent feed source for copepods, rotifers, and brine shrimp, making it a great addition to systems that rely on natural plankton-based nutrition.
By supporting healthy populations of microfauna, this phytoplankton helps provide a natural and highly digestible food source for many reef organisms.
