Reef Genetics Phytoplankton – Rhodomonas salina

Rhodomonas salina is a red, high-value phytoplankton strain loaded with EPA, DHA, and natural pigments like phycoerythrin. Its small cell size, soft cell wall, and vibrant color make it one of the most digestible and visually stimulating options for corals, filter feeders, and live feed enrichment.

Cultured under TSA’s Reef Genetics line, Rhodomonas is harvested fresh and bottled without preservatives—ideal for reef keepers who demand clean, nutrient-dense phytoplankton for their most sensitive livestock.
