The PhytoBreeder 200 Grotech is a plankton reactor designed for the autonomous cultivation of phytoplankton. It allows aquarists to directly produce their own source of live plankton, suitable for feeding filter organisms and supporting the reef ecosystem.
Plankton reactor for phytoplankton cultivation.
Usable volume: 11 L.
Diameter: 20 cm.
Total dimensions: 22 x 22 x 52 cm.
Under optimal conditions, up to 30% of the PhytoBreeder's volume can be harvested daily. This corresponds to a daily production of approximately 3.5 to 6 L of phytoplankton, which can be directly injected into the reef aquarium. This process can be automated using a dedicated control system.
The compact design of the PhytoBreeder 200 optimizes space while maintaining a suitable culture volume for regular production.
The light source is directly integrated into the culture chamber, significantly improving the efficiency of the luminous energy used for phytoplankton growth. The removable lid has been replaced by a 110 mm screw cap, facilitating opening and ensuring total pressure-tight sealing.
The PhytoBreeder 200 comes complete with a magnetic stirrer, necessary connectors, an integrated lighting unit, as well as PhytoStart and PhytoFood supplements for starting and maintaining the culture.
