| Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of any contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Management reviews these estimates and assumptions periodically and reflects the effect of revisions in the period that they are determined to be necessary. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

| Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Financial Instruments and Fair Value
The Company applies a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
If the asset or liability has a specified contractual term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
There were no financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025.
Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Customer Deposits - Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, management believes that the carrying amounts approximate fair value.
Line of Credit, Revolver, Short-Term and Long-Term Debt - The carrying amount of the Line of Credit, Revolver and short and long-term debt approximates fair value as interest rates applied to the underlying debt are adjusted quarterly to market interest rates, which approximate current interest rates for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities.

| Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Concentration Risk
A significant portion of revenues and accounts receivables are derived from a few major customers.

| Accounts Receivable [Policy Text Block] | Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not accrue interest. Credit is extended based on evaluation of the customer’s financial condition. Collateral is not required. The allowance for credit losses reflects management’s best estimate of expected credit losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance. Management determines the allowance based on historical experience, specifically identified nonpaying accounts and other currently available evidence. Management reviews its customer account balances monthly with a focus on significant individual past due balances over 90 days. All other balances are reviewed on a pooled basis. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers or otherwise.

| Segment Reporting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Segment Reporting
Operating segments are identified as components of an entity about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company determined that based on the regularly reviewed and provided financial package to its Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”), that the CEO and CFO together are its singular Chief Operating Decision Maker (the “CODM”). Additionally, the Company determined that due to its sole focus on the cultivation and production of microalgal products, the Company views its operations and manages its business as one operating and reportable segment focused on the manufacture and distribution of natural products derived from microalgae, astaxanthin and spirulina.
The CEO and CFO together are the CODM and manage the business based on condensed consolidated financial results and use consolidated net income or loss, including significant operating expenses, for the purpose of assessing performance, allocating resources across departments and making operating decisions.
The CODM uses consolidated income (loss) from operations and operating expenses to monitor actual results versus budget and prior year’s results, which facilitates the assessment of the Company’s performance in line with the Company’s strategic goals. Monitoring of budget versus actual results are used in assessing performance of the segment and in establishing management’s compensation.
All revenue, operating expenses and assets attributed to this one segment are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company’s significant segment expenses align with the categories on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The measure of segment assets is reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as total consolidated assets. All segment long-lived assets are located in the United States of America.

| Revenue [Policy Text Block] | Revenue Recognition
The Company records revenue based on the five-step model which includes: (1) identifying the contract with the customer; (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determining the transaction price; (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognizing revenue when the performance obligations are satisfied. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is generated by fulfilling orders for the purchase of its microalgal dietary supplements to retailers, wholesalers, or direct to consumers via online channels, with each order considered to be a distinct performance obligation. These orders may be formal purchase orders, verbal phone orders, e-mail orders or orders received online. Shipping and handling activities for which the Company is responsible under the terms and conditions of the order are not accounted for as performance obligations but as fulfillment costs. These activities are required to fulfill the Company’s promise to transfer the goods and are expensed when revenue is recognized.
Revenue is measured as the net amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for fulfilling a performance obligation. The Company has elected to exclude sales, use and similar taxes from the measurement of the transaction price. The amount of consideration expected to be received and revenue recognized includes estimates of variable consideration, which includes costs for trade promotion programs, coupons, returns and early payment discounts. Such estimates are calculated using historical averages adjusted for any expected changes due to current business conditions and experience. The Company reviews and updates these estimates at the end of each reporting period and the impact of any adjustments are recognized in the period the adjustments are identified. In assessing whether collection of consideration from a customer is probable, the Company considers the customer's ability and intent to pay that amount of consideration when it is due. Payment of invoices is due as specified in the underlying customer agreement, typically 30 days from the invoice date, which occurs on the date of transfer of control of the products to the customer. Revenue is recognized at the point in time that control of the ordered products is transferred to the customer. Generally, this occurs when the product is delivered, or in some cases, picked up from one of the Company’s distribution centers by the customer. Revenue from extraction services is recognized when control is transferred upon completion of the extraction process.
Customer contract liabilities consist of customer deposits received in advance of fulfilling an order and are shown separately on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized $1,000 and $45,000, respectively, of revenue from deposits that were included in contract liabilities as of March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s contracts have a duration of one year or less and therefore, the Company has elected the practical expedient of not disclosing revenues allocated to partially unsatisfied performance obligations.

| New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosure” (“ASU 2023-09”), which enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. Adjustments to the annual disclosure of income taxes include: a tabulate rate reconciliation comprised of eight specific categories; income taxes paid, disaggregated between significant federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions; eliminating requirements to disclose the nature and estimate of reasonably possible changes to unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12 months or that an estimated range cannot be made; and adds a requirement to disclose income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) and income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations disaggregated between domestic and foreign. ASU 2023-09 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2023-09 to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024-03”), which enhances the disclosure of expenses on the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2024-03 to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures. |
