Culturing phytoplankton

[madmax7774]

Several Days ago, I stumbled onto a website of a hobbyist who was culturing his own phytoplankton. I have to say I am intrigued by this idea, and thinking of giving it a go. Does anyone in the club do this, an if so, what did you use to start the initial batch? I read on Melev's website that "supposedly" you can start a batch with some DT's. What have other used, and how have your results been?

Pretty sure DT's changed the formula awhile back and it is not a great starter culture anymore...

 

I have used disks, pastes, etc from aquaculture supply joints.
