Selling Phyto
I've started culturing a couple of different cultures of phyto and I was wondering if I were to sell it what would be resonable to ask for a liter of phyto? I'm not looking to get rich off of this, I want to provide something that is live and fresh to the local reefers but I want to cover my cost plus a little to expand if I need new materials or equipment?
What would you pay? Thanks ~CC |

The individual in my local club sells a 2 liter for $5. Each 2 liter has about as much phyto as the large DT's bottle(16-20oz??).

$5 sounds about right. I would definitely culture it with Guillard's media, or f/2 culture media (same thing), over something like Miracle Grow. I wouldn't buy phyto grown on Miracle Grow due to all the extra heavy metals and phosphates that will be in the mix. Phyto grown up on f/2 would be a great source, and I'm sure the local guys would appreciate it. I did it for awhile too, always had people wanting to trade for it.
