An in vitro refined co-culture grows via lithotrophic manganese oxidation (manganox). This enrichment started from Pasadena municipal drinking water, transferred into freshwater media and refined through several dilution-to-extinction series down to two species: Species A ('Candidatus Manganitrophus noduliformans') and Species B (Ramlibacter lithotrophicus).
