Are the diatoms in this product reared in a culture or harvested from a "freshwater" or other water source?

If you look up earthworks health there is a page that explains how they harvest it. From what I remember it is mined from deposits from old lake beds. We use this at my home for several things and love it.

I have no idea where the product is from because I don't have it anymore. I wouldn't recommended the product anyway because of the problems I had with it and had to return it. You would be taking a great gamble on buying it( if you are planning on it) because the product may or may not work for you. I now get my water at the local grocery store using the RO machine and then replacing the minerals back in it by using a ionic minerals and trace elements.

The package I have says distributed by Natural Zing, LLC in Maryland, and Product of India. Also says raw, organic. I've taken half of my second package of 1,000 count, 500 mg tablets and I'm still alive. :) They also have Hawaiian spirulina powder which I have not used because I prefer tablets. Their website (www.naturalzing.com) says this about it. Hawaiian Grown Spirulina (Ocean Water Grown, Raw) 5 oz [nutrexs] $19.95 100% Hawaiian Spirulina. Spirulina (Raw, Vegetarian, ocean water grown) - Small Size, 5 oz. powder. Dietary Supplement. Spiralina, a blue-green algae is grown in ponds filled with diluted ocean water drawn from a pipeline that plunges 2000 feet into the sea. Oceanographers state that this water has been below the surface since Old Testament times. This pipeline brings this ultra-pure water to supplement the Spirulina's growing environment. No other Spirulina is grown with such a great source of natural hydroponics. This allows the plant to reach its maximum mature capacity. A cool ocean breeze drying method protects quality. This product is packaged in brown glass with oxygen absorbers and sealing caps to protect it, resulting in a high level of quality when you receive it. This Hawaiian Spirulina delivers. Spirulina can be important for anyone needing additional nourishment including dieters, athletes, convalescents and the elderly. Just 3 grams will help supply greatness lacking in most of our diets.* Net wt.: 5 oz powder. Dietary Supplement. My orders have been filled very fast and the packaging and product inside appear to be of the highest quality.

I expanded the label here and besides other information it says its from extremely clean sea water. If you click where it says to expand the small labels eill become enlarged too sobyou can read other details. Our garden seems to be growing well and we wanted to increase mineral contents. John on growingyourgreens.com uses it. Hes also on youtube. Sorry for any typos

I personally have never bought bio media, but it seems to be the same to me (by the picture). I think the Fluval Pre-filter media is larger though. The rigs are good sized for the bacteria to adhere to.

No, I messaged them and asked, it comes from China. Some Islands supposedly clean waters...however all my research shows do not buy Chlorella from China. I'm going with Yaeyama Source Naturals. Only a few dollars more but Japan has higher standards for testing. Also opposite side of Japan than radiation. The radiation headed towards California.

The label does not say, but I'm pretty sure it is sourced from Maine Coast Sea Veg brand, which would make it laminaria digitata.

I am not a representative of Deva but they do say: "The DHA used in this product is derived from algae grown under sanitary manufacturing conditions." I assume this means laboratory grown = probably in tanks. Here is the Deva contact information: DEVA Nutrition LLCinfo@devanutrition.comTel: (888) 988-DEVAFax: (888) 588-DEVA

There are, indeed, little scrubbing beads in this product. I really loved it until I recently discovered that these beads are made out of silicon and there are millions and millions of them draining into our rivers, lakes & oceans. Fish mistake them for food (fish eggs), eat them and are getting sick and dying. I'm normally not that much of a tree-hugger type, but I've stopped using these products.

They are a neutral growing medium that does not contain any nutrients. You generally have to supply nutrients in the water you water them with.

Broken cell wall chlorella comes from plants off the Hainan Island of China.

According to a study by UCLA dried algae are cold. The heat watchful against its purity.

I'm not sure. The package says salt water. Maybe you should look for the Gulp that is good for fresh water. I don't know if the fish know the difference.

No, you need to go by the label. Saltwater has different chemistry than freshwater.
