Boosts Copepod and Microfauna Populations

Tetraselmis fuels the base of the food chain in your tank by feeding copepods and rotifers. This supports fish that eat live food (like mandarins and anthias), and helps maintain a more natural, balanced reef ecosystem.

Through photosynthesis, live Tetraselmis absorbs CO₂, which can help stabilize pH, especially at night. It also produces oxygen, benefiting all aerobic life in your tank and enhancing overall tank stability.

Provides Essential Coral Food

Tetraselmis is a direct food source for filter-feeding corals (like Goniopora, soft corals, and NPS species), as well as feather dusters, clams, and sponges. Regular feeding can lead to better polyp extension, growth, and coloration in corals.
