Product information "Microbe-Lift Gel Filter"
Microbe-Lift Gel Filter - Filter starter
A patented filter gel for use in marine and freshwater aquariums. Thanks to its specially developed consistency, it adheres directly to the filter material, allowing the bacteria to colonize and multiply more quickly. This reduces the running-in time of filters by up to 80% and thus ensures rapid biological activity.
Functions and benefits:
- Easy handling with different filter media
- Contains natural bio-polymers for the colonization of bacteria on the filter material, which reduces the running-in time by up to 80%.
- Stabilizes the water quickly and prevents instability after cleaning or replacing the filter media.
- Unique option for heavy loads (e.g. filter media). Unique possibility to quickly revitalize a filter biologically in the case of heavy loads (medication).
- Reduces the fouling of filter media through faster decomposition of organic waste.
- Extends the service life of filters considerably.
- Promotes nitrate decomposition in the filter and ensures lower water pollution.
Microbe-Lift / Gel Filter is a patented innovation in the field of biotechnology. It is the first product that keeps the bacteria on the filter material on which they are to be dosed.
Dosage:
Apply ML/GF evenly in lines or dots directly onto the filter material. The dosage depends on the filter material. For porous filter material, it is recommended to allow the filter gel to act for 15 to 30 minutes
before adding it to the filter. Repeat the application every time you clean the filter or add new filter material.

Tillandsias for desert terrariums
CHF 3.90
Tillandsias - decoration for steppe & semi-desert terrariums
Tillandsias belong to the bromeliad family and originate from subtropical Central and South America. Like many bromeliads, they live epiphytically on trees and rocks. Their roots serve almost exclusively as an adhesive organ.The plants are delivered assorted by us according to stock - this means you will not receive the whole assortment shown, but as many "pieces" as you order
Tillandsias absorb the necessary nutrients and water through their leaves. Their distribution extends across many regions in different climate zones, e.g. tillandsias thrive in ever-humid rainforests, cooler mountain forests, and some species even in semi-deserts.Tillandsias are relatively undemanding plants, which makes them easy to care for. Tillandsias require a bright location, but one that is protected from direct sunlight, especially in summer. Tillandsias thrive very well at room temperature.In winter, tillandsias should not be exposed to temperatures below 15°C.Tillandsias are best sprayed with soft water 2 to 3 times a week. A special tillandsia fertiliser is available for fertilising, which contains all the important nutrients for your tillandsias to thrive.Tillandsias are, with optimal care, relatively little susceptible to diseases and pests. Looked after in this way, you will enjoy your plants for a long time.
Tillandsias delight with unusual flowers and forms of leaves. In most cases, you can also tell from the colour of the leaves what the plant needs. As a rule of thumb:Grey leaves - more light, less water.Green leaves - lots of water, more warmth, less light.Tillandsias are ideally suited for steppe and semi-desert terrariums. Even bearded dragons do not eat the plants.We offer you only tillandsias from cultivation, so not from the wild.
