Never Run Out of Live Food Again
Your reef animals depend on a continuous supply of fresh, living nutrition. A Reefphyto subscription delivers freshly cultured copepods, phytoplankton, and rotifers to your door on a schedule you choose, automatically.
Browse Subscription ProductsThe Problem with Ordering Live Food "When You Remember"
Live cultures have a natural lifespan. Copepod populations in your tank are grazed down. Phytoplankton is consumed. Rotifers are eaten within days of dosing. The biology doesn't pause because life got busy.
Most reef keepers know they should be feeding live food regularly. But between work, family, and everything else, reordering slips. By the time you notice, fish are hunting more aggressively, corals have retracted, or the refugium looks thin, the nutritional gap has already affected your animals.
The issue isn't knowledge. It's consistency. And that's exactly what a subscription solves.
Freshly Cultured in Wales. Delivered on Your Schedule.
Since 2008, Reefphyto has been culturing live marine foods at our specialist facility in Wales. Every subscription delivery is prepared fresh. The same cultures, the same quality, the same care as a one-time order. The only difference is you don't have to remember to place it.
When you subscribe, we handle the logistics. You choose the product, the quantity, and how often you'd like it delivered. We culture it fresh, pack it for live arrival, and dispatch it to your door automatically. Your reef stays fed. You stay focused on enjoying it.
How It Works: Three Simple Steps
Choose Your Products & Frequency
Pick from our range of live copepods, phytoplankton, rotifers, and reef shots. Select how often you'd like deliveries: every week, every fortnight, every month, or whatever suits your tank's needs.
We Culture & Deliver Automatically
Your subscription is prepared fresh at our Welsh facility and dispatched on schedule. You're billed automatically via Shopify's secure payment system. No need to re-enter details or place repeat orders.
Manage Everything From Your Portal
After your first order, you'll receive a link to your personal subscription portal. From there you can skip deliveries, change products, adjust quantities, update your address, pause, or cancel. All in a few clicks.
Why Reef Keepers Subscribe
Always Fresh, Always Alive
Every delivery is cultured to order at our facility in Wales. Subscription orders receive exactly the same freshly prepared cultures as one-time purchases. There is no difference in quality.
Never Miss a Feed
Live food arrives on a schedule that matches your tank's consumption. No gaps in supply. No emergency orders. Your animals get consistent, uninterrupted nutrition.
Save on Every Delivery
Subscribers receive a discount on every order compared to one-time pricing. The savings accumulate with every delivery. The longer you subscribe, the more you save.
Complete Flexibility, No Lock-In
Pause when you're on holiday. Skip a delivery if your fridge is full. Change products as your tank evolves. Cancel at any time. We earn your continued custom through quality, not obligation.
You're in Control
Your subscription portal lets you manage everything: frequency, products, quantities, shipping address, payment method. No need to contact us unless you want to.
Same Careful Packaging
Subscription deliveries are packed with the same care and live-arrival methods as every Reefphyto order. We don't cut corners because it's automated.

Start Your SubscriptionQuestions & Answers
Everything you need to know about subscribing to Reefphyto live cultures.
Browse our subscription products and select the live culture you'd like to receive regularly. On the product page, choose the "Subscribe & Save" option, pick your delivery frequency, and complete checkout as normal. Your subscription will be created automatically and your first delivery dispatched straight away.
You're charged automatically on the schedule you selected at checkout. For example, every 2 weeks or every month. Your subscription portal shows your next billing date and upcoming delivery schedule so you always know exactly when to expect your order.
Yes. Log in to your subscription portal and adjust the interval to suit your needs. If your tank's consumption changes or you want deliveries more or less frequently, you can update this at any time.
Absolutely. Your subscription portal allows you to add new products or remove existing ones. If your tank setup changes, perhaps you've added a mandarin dragonet and now need copepods alongside your phytoplankton, you can update your subscription to match.
Yes to both. If you're going on holiday, have plenty of stock, or simply need a break, you can skip your next delivery or pause your entire subscription from the portal. When you're ready, resume with a single click and your deliveries will continue as normal.
You can cancel at any time from your subscription portal. There's no minimum commitment and no cancellation fee. We'd love to keep you, but we believe you should stay because the product is worth it, not because you're locked in.
If a payment doesn't go through, perhaps your card has expired or there's a temporary bank issue, our system will retry automatically. You'll receive an email notification so you can update your payment details in the portal if needed. We recover the vast majority of failed payments without any disruption to your deliveries.

Log in to your subscription portal and update your shipping address. The change will apply to all future deliveries. If you're moving house or want a delivery sent to a different location temporarily, you can update this as often as you need.
Identical. Every subscription delivery is cultured fresh at our Welsh facility using the same process as one-time orders. We don't batch-prepare subscription orders in advance or use older stock. When your subscription renews, your cultures are prepared and dispatched live, exactly the same as if you'd placed the order manually that day.
Yes. If you cancelled previously and want to start receiving deliveries again, you can reactivate your subscription from the portal. Your previous settings (products, frequency, address) will be restored, so you won't need to set everything up again from scratch.
No. You can subscribe as a guest and manage your subscription entirely through the magic links we include in your emails. However, creating a free customer account gives you direct access to your portal at any time without needing to find an email link.
