NUTRI RHODO

Technical application guide — Rhodo photosynthetic bacteria activation

📦 Preparation

• 1 drum containing a minimum of 200 liters of water.
• 1 bucket containing a minimum of 10 liters of water.
• 180 liters of clean water (do not use pond water).
• 1 clean nylon bag capable of holding 20 liters of water (can reuse cleaned shrimp postlarvae bags).
• 1 microbial jug of at least 20 liters (already reddish-brown — the darker, the better). If using Thần Vương brand: RODO BACTO 20-liter jug type.
• 1 box of nutrient NUTRI RHODO.

🧪 Instructions

1. Pour 170 liters of clean water into the drum (note: do not use pond water).
2. Pour 10 liters of clean water into the plastic bucket. Add the small nutrient sachet from the NUTRI RHODO box, stir well until completely dissolved (approx. 1 minute).
3. Next, add the remaining nutrient (protein / yeast extract) from the NUTRI RHODO box, stir well for about 10 minutes.
4. Pour the 10-liter mixture from the bucket into the drum with 170 liters of clean water, continue stirring well.
5. Add the Rhodo microbial jug (20 liters) into the drum, stir well for another 20 minutes to complete the mixture.
6. Transfer the mixture into nylon bags, use rubber bands to seal the bag openings tightly.

☀️ Sun Incubation

• Expose the bags to sunlight — the more surface area exposed to sunlight, the faster the mixture will develop color.
• Typically: on day 4, the reddish-brown color begins to appear.
• After 7 days, if the color has developed well → the product can be used for the pond.

📝 Notes

• Absolutely do not use pond water for mixing — as it will introduce contaminants and spoil the culture batch.
• Stir for sufficient time (10 minutes for nutrients + 20 minutes after adding microbes) to achieve maximum effectiveness.
• The thinner and flatter the nylon bag (increasing sun exposure area) → the faster the color will develop.
• Shrimp postlarvae bags can be reused — clean thoroughly before use.
