JBL ProCristal Compact plus UV-C – water clarifier for aquariumsJBL ProCristal Compact plus UV-C 5 W and 11 W – compact UV-C water clarifier for freshwater and marine aquariums. Reduces floating algae, greenish and whitish cloudiness.The JBL ProCristal Compact plus UV-C is a compact UV-C water clarifier for freshwater and marine aquariums. It helps maintain clear and healthy aquarium water by quickly and efficiently reducing greenish and whitish cloudiness. A UV-C clarifier can be a useful addition to your filter system, particularly in cases of floating algae, bacterial cloudiness or increased bacterial load.The unit is connected to an external filter or a suitable pump in a space-saving manner. Thanks to the practically arranged inlet and outlet ports, the UV-C clarifier can be easily integrated into existing aquarium set-ups. The 5 W version has a minimum installation length of 32 cm, whilst the 11 W version has a minimum installation length of 42 cm.The JBL ProCristal Compact plus UV-C is available in two power ratings: the 5 W version is suitable for partial disinfection of aquariums up to 300 litres and for combating floating algae in tanks up to 100 litres, in each case with a pump delivering a maximum of 300 l/h. The 11 W version is suitable for partial disinfection in aquariums up to 800 litres and for combating floating algae in aquariums up to 200 litres, in each case with a pump with a maximum flow rate of 500 l/h. An integrated safety switch automatically switches off the UV-C lamp when the unit is opened.Your benefits at a glanceAvailable in 5-watt and 11-watt versionsSuitable for freshwater and saltwater aquariumsReduces greenish and whitish cloudiness in the waterHelps combat floating algae and bacterial cloudinessSupports partial disinfection and can reduce the risk of diseaseSpace-saving installation on an external filter or pumpWith a safety switch for automatic shut-off when openedTechnical specifications 5 wattsMinimum installation length: 32 cmPartial disinfection: for aquariums up to 300 litresFor combating floating algae: aquariums up to 100 litresRecommended pump capacity: max. 300 l/hTechnical specifications 11 wattsMinimum installation length: 42 cmPartial disinfection: for aquariums up to 800 litresFor combating floating algae: aquariums up to 200 litresRecommended pump capacity: max. 500 l/hDirections for useConnect the JBL ProCristal Compact plus UV-C to a suitable external filter or pump in accordance with the operating instructions. In aquariums, the UV-C unit is usually connected after the filter so that water that is as clear as possible and has been mechanically pre-cleaned flows through the UV-C clarifier.Ensure the flow rate is correct, as excessive pump output can reduce the contact time between the water and the UV-C light. The unit must only be operated when fully assembled and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Never look directly at UV-C light. Always disconnect from the mains before carrying out any maintenance work.Zoo Roco TipA UV-C clarifier is particularly helpful for green water caused by floating algae or milky-whitish cloudiness. However, it is no substitute for regular aquarium maintenance, water changes or identifying the root cause. You should also check the lighting duration, nutrient levels, stocking density and filter performance. For smaller aquariums, the 5 W version is usually sufficient; for larger tanks or where water quality is more heavily compromised, the 11 W version may be more appropriate.

JBL Detoxol - instant detoxifier JBL Detoxol instantly removes toxins such as ammonia (NH3), nitrite (NO2), chlorine and chloramine in freshwater and saltwater aquariums Normally, these toxins are not a problem in a well-established aquarium. But if the water is changed too much or the aquarium is overfed, or if the aquarium is moved or started up, the nitrite content can very quickly become too high and toxic - JBL Detoxol is the quick emergency aid! Extremely fast effect: the toxins are demonstrably neutralized after just 10 minutes Nitrite & nitrate formation is reduced by removing ammonium. Binds heavy metals such as copper and lead. Stabilizes the carbonate hardness (KH). Can be overdosed up to 5 times Scope of delivery: 1 bottle of JBL Detoxol incl. dosing cap for easy and precise dosing Dosage:Add 10 ml JBL Detoxol to 40 l of water. Very high binding capacity: 10 ml can bind 30 mg ammonium and 2 mg chlorine Ammonia and nitrite are toxic to fish. Normally, the biology and the filter should manage to keep the values within a problem-free range. This biological balance can be disturbed by medication, overfeeding and/or too many fish, resulting in problematic concentrations of the toxins mentioned. Immediate action is essential to prevent losses! By adding JBL Detoxol, the toxins are safely and quickly neutralized within 10 minutes and no longer pose a danger. In addition, the causes of the toxins should be identified and eliminated. Differences to other products: Water conditioner such as JBL Biotopol: The water conditioner also neutralizes chlorine & chloramine as well as heavy metals. But it cannot neutralize toxic nitrogen compounds such as ammonia and nitrite. Bacterial preparations such as JBL Denitrol: JBL Denitrol can also remove ammonium/ammonia and nitrite, but in a biological way via bacterial decomposition. Unfortunately, this is not possible in 10 minutes, but takes hours to days. For the long-term functioning of an aquarium, the bacterial water conditioner JBL Denitrol is the right way to go - JBL Detoxol is the right choice for quick immediate help
