Isochrysis galbana

Promotes Coral Growth and Coloration

Isochrysis galbana is a motile, golden-colored phytoplankton from the haptophyta family, widely valued in bivalve aquaculture for its exceptional nutritional profile. Its golden hue is attributed to its high fucoxanthin content, a carotenoid that enhances coral pigmentation when consumed. With a cell size of 2-6 μm, Isochrysis galbana is an ideal feed for all types of corals, filter feeders, and zooplankton.

Exceptional Bio-available Nutrition

Isochrysis is a highly nutritious food source for all types of corals and filter feeders. It has a remarkably high fatty acids content (EPA, DHA, PUFAs) that will stimulate coral feeding response, enhance polyp extension and boost growth, also greatly benefit to overall aquarium ecosystem.
