Product Details

ALGAE CULTURE: In our labs in San Diego we grow algae and zooplankton cultures for most habitats on our planet (and perhaps Mars!) We carry freshwater, brackish, marine, and extremophile cultures of algae. They grow to exhibit colorful pigments of red (phycoerythrin), orange (carotenoids), brown (fucoxanthin), blue green (phycocyanin), and our favorite->green (chlorophyll). Our algae strains have been selected because they are grown well in bottles and flasks.
SCIENCE PROJECT: Teachers, parents, and students - grow algae easily and get great results for inquiry-based projects. Because algae grow FAST experiments take a fraction of the time as land-plants (and algae is cooler!) Great experiments: toxicology, light quality, environmental changes, algae blooms. Blog posts detail science-fair winners and other projects. Students have sent our algae into SPACE THREE TIMES (would have been four, but the rocket exploded.. we still love you Space X.)
WHO WE ARE: Algae Research Supply is a small group of teachers and scientists with a mission of educating the next generations on aquatic science. Over 50% of the planet's oxygen comes from algae, however we are not emphasizing algae's importance in school- our mission is to make it EASY, AFFORDABLE, and REPEATABLE to teach algae in classrooms.

Algae Research Supply Editorial Review

Algae Research Supply is providing high-quality Spirulina, a safe algae organism that can be consumed after proper harvesting and preparation. The company offers no guarantee of the product's safety because it depends on how it has been grown. The algae belongs to the species S. Platenais, and without adding nutrients, the algae can double its growth in five days. The product has enough nutrients to fill a five-gallon tank, and an infinite supply can be obtained if properly grown. The user will have to add animal feed grade urea, rock salt, baking powder, wood ash, and iron in proportionate measurements every time they harvest. The culture requires bubbling or stirring, i.e., mixing to grow, for which the user needs an air pump or water pump. The density of this algae culture is at least 0.4g dry weight per liter, and it can go up to 0.7g dw/L. The company ships the order on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays throughout the USA.

Pros

Safe algae organism to eat if grown and harvested correctly
Can double its growth in five days
Enough nutrients to fill a five-gallon tank, providing an infinite supply
Density of at least 0.4g dry weight per liter
Shipping throughout the USA on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays

Cons

Requires animal feed grade urea, rock salt, baking powder, wood ash, and iron to be added in proportions to feed the culture every time they harvest.
Bubbling or stirring is necessary, i.e., mixing, for the algae culture to grow, for which the user needs an air pump or water pump.
