Description
Experience the "Gold Standard" of coral nutrition with Home Brew Margarita, a multi-species live phytoplankton blend that was honored with a nomination for Best New Product at its debut. Crafted with a focus on biological synergy, this blend doesn't just feed your corals—it optimizes your entire reef ecosystem.
The "Margarita" Difference
Unlike traditional, single-strain feeds, the Margarita blend is a "coral cocktail" designed to hit every level of the coral nutrition pyramid. It combines three laboratory-grade phytoplankton species with Hydrospace™ Pro-Bio Purple Non-Sulfur Bacteria (PNSB), creating a powerhouse formula that provides both "meat" (protein) and "veggies" (microalgae) in a single pour.
Product Features & Benefits
- Triple-Strain Blend: Features a curated mix of Tetraselmis chuii, Tisochrysis lutea, and Phaeodactylum tricornutum to ensure a diverse range of cell sizes and nutritional profiles.
- Infused with PNSB: Every bottle contains live Purple Non-Sulfur Bacteria, which helps process organic waste, consume excess nitrates and phosphates, and outcompete nuisance cyanobacteria.
- Explosive Color & Growth: Packed with essential amino acids, lipids (EPA/DHA), and natural pigments like Beta-Carotene and Chlorophyll that boost coral vibrancy and fish coloration.
- Microbiome Support: Promotes a healthy bacterial balance, acting as a probiotic for your reef and providing "liquid gold" nutrition that helps struggling corals recover from color loss or stress.
- Low Nutrient Impact: Formulated to be highly bioavailable, ensuring your corals absorb the nutrients before they can contribute to unwanted nutrient spikes.
Key Species Breakdown
- Tetraselmis chuii: Known for its high lipid content and motile cells that trigger a strong feeding response.
- Tisochrysis lutea: Rich in DHA, making it a critical energy source for developing larvae and filter feeders.
- Phaeodactylum tricornutum: A hardy diatom rich in EPA that fuels rapid growth and cellular repair.
- Hydrospace™ PNSB: The "mixer" that manages waste while providing a secondary, protein-rich food source for corals.
Usage & Care
- Storage: Keep refrigerated (32–39°F) to maintain potency and extend shelf life.
- Maintenance: Gently shake the bottle weekly to keep the live cells in suspension.
- Dosing: One 15oz bottle is capable of feeding approximately 1,300 gallons. For most systems, it is recommended to dose the specified amount every other day.
- Ideal For: Mixed reefs, SPS/LPS dominated tanks, clams, and boosting copepod populations.
Why settle for a single ingredient when you can give your reef the Margarita? Bring the party to your tank and watch your corals "glow and grow."
