 As you harvest, you will need to feed your culture to replace the nutrients removed by virtue of harvesting algae.

 Harvesting requires a 50-micron screen, which will catch the individual algae cells, allowing the nutrient solution through to be replaced into the culture to grow more!

 I'm pretty impressed with Spirulina.
-Spirulina is an algae (actually cyanobacteria) with an amazing nutrient profile, which can be farmed with relatively minimal effort once you've climbed the learning curve.
+Spirulina is an algae (actually cyanobacteria) with an amazing nutrient profile (see below), which can be farmed with relatively minimal effort once you've climbed the learning curve.
 Although farming it under its own ideal conditions does require energy investment to keep the culture at ideal temperature, and loaded up with plenty of light, Spirulina will grow -- just not as efficiently -- under whatever natural Sunlight conditions it receives, and can exist within a reasonable temperature range.  It will die if it gets too cold (< ~45'F) or too hot (> ~108'F), but beyond that, growth suffers.  See chart:
