Instructions
Place algae in direct sunlight.
Submerge algae in water. Depending on its species, the algae will either convert the water to carbohydrates or feed off the nutrients found in water.
Allow at least 4 hours to pass. You must allow adequate sunlight each day in order for the algae to produce enough food.
How to Feed Algae
Many people think of algae as a slimy nuisance, but we depend on this lifeform more than we may realize. According to "Introduction to Biology" by M. Melchor, algae have many medicinal benefits, potentially helping to fight cancer and inflammation. Algae thrive on sunlight and build necessary carbohydrates out of carbon dioxide and water. Since this species depends on photosynthesis, feeding algae is a simple process.
