For maintenance, seeding, reseeding or starting your reef aquarium, or after infestation by cyanobacteria, or filamentous or invasive algae.
Comprising different cultures of microfauna and meiofauna eggs, certified as harmless, to recreate all the diverse microfauna and the food chain so essential for saltwater reef aquariums.
Daphbio®: an innovative trailblazer! We have known for more than 30 years that a reef aquarium with no microfauna just doesn’t work. The necessity for microfauna in saltwater reef aquariums, in particular when starting your reef aquarium and for proper aquarium maintenance by reseeding, is little-known in France. Daphbio® live microfauna and meiofauna serve to create, or recreate, the food chain that is so crucial to your aquarium. Daphbio® offers high-quality, diverse live microfauna, crucially seeded with meiofauna and bacterio-plankton, to culture your natural or inert stones, and to feed your fish and invertebrates such as corals and gorgonians. Our microfauna is perfectly well suited to delicate fish such as mandarins: Synchiropus picturatus (the dragonet) and Synchiropus splendidus. This product is ideal too for refugiums and settling tanks. .
Daphbio® microfauna and meiofauna eggs: available in 1-litre bottles suited to aquariums between 60 and 4,000 litres in size. It is not possible to overdose the tank with this product, even a nano-aquarium.
Daphbio® microfauna is a work of art, honed by long experience. We combine all the diverse microfauna, the whole food chain essential for saltwater and reef aquariums in one bottle: microfauna (copepods, brachion, rotifers, nematode/white grubs), micro-organisms, meiofauna and bacterioplankton.
We harvest seeded microfauna, meaning it is ready to lay and so culture your aquarium. Our cultures, which are particularly resistant to extreme temperatures and being transported, are specially grown biologically.
When you receive your bottle of reef or saltwater microfauna and meiofauna, pour the bottle in two goes when your fish are sleeping, with the skimmer switched off from 1 hour up to the whole night.
When starting an aquarium, refer to this protocol.
This bottle is recommended with the reef aquarium reseeding kit and with the saltwater aquarium start-up kit, or after a cyanobacteria episode.
For successful aquarium seeding or start-up, we advise you to use this product in conjunction with:
Keep in the refrigerator.
Return the bottle to room temperature before pouring into the aquarium.

Very effective (Translated review)
Nothing better than real live microfauna to give/restore life to your tank. I experienced 2 crises of cyanobacteria and dinoflagellates. After major maintenance (siphoning/filtering the water), I directly added the live microfauna (the complete kit) and in 1 week I saw the difference. Really great product, certainly with a cost, but of quality and it works. (Translated review)
I have been using it since the beginning in my 9-month-old aquarium and the results are very good. If you follow the protocol and the complete program well, life settles in quietly without too many surprises or parameter drift. I advise all reefers, whether they are struggling or not, to give it a try. Trying it is adopting it. (Translated review)
Excellent product for my reef tank (Translated review)
The products are also very good but I have ordered several times and am very satisfied with the products for seawater (Translated review)
Very satisfied, the microfauna has developed well and is clearly visible (Translated review)
very happy with your product, I will reorder (Translated review)
Every two months 1 liter in 200 liters and everyone benefits. To be added at night when the fish are sleeping. (Translated review)
super (Translated review)
