螺旋藻和其它生物一样,其生长、繁殖和外界生活条件密切相关,它们能在稻田、池塘、沼泽、淡水、盐碱水、海水及泉水等环境里生长,目前大规模养殖的几个藻株要求高碱性与适度盐分的水生环境,如非洲、墨西哥的某些碱性湖里螺旋藻能繁茂的生长,我国云南程海湖也是生长螺旋藻的碱性湖。 Spirulina, like other organisms, is closely related to its growth, reproduction and external living conditions. It can grow in rice fields, ponds, swamps, freshwater, salty water, seawater and spring water. At present, Requires overbased and moderate salt aquatic environment, such as Africa, Mexico, some alkaline lake spirulina can flourish growth, China’s Chenghai Lake in Yunnan is also the growth of spirulina alkaline lake.
