Aqua Rebell - Macro Special NPK Soil
From
CHF 17.90
Aqua Rebell Makro Spezial NPK Soil Aqua Rebell Makro Spezial NPK Soil is a liquid macronutrient fertiliser for planted aquariums, particularly for aquascapes with active soil substrate. The fertiliser specifically supplies aquatic plants with the essential macronutrients nitrogen, phosphate and potassium.
The special formulation is nitrogen-rich, phosphate-limited and potassium-enriched. This makes the fertiliser particularly well-suited to aquariums with soil, as it supports nutrient supply without unnecessarily affecting the natural nutrient dynamics of the substrate. The result is vigorous, robust and relatively compact plant growth.The ready-to-use liquid fertiliser is easy to dose and can be individually adjusted depending on plant density, lighting, CO₂ supply and nutrient consumption. NPK Soil can also be used in aquariums without soil if a controlled supply of macronutrients with reduced phosphate input is desired.
For optimum results, we recommend combining it with a suitable micronutrient fertiliser to supply iron and trace elements, for example Aqua Rebell Mikro Spezial Flowgrow.Advantages at a glanceMacronutrient fertiliser containing nitrogen, phosphate and potassiumSpecially developed for planted aquariums with soil substrateNitrogen-rich and phosphate-limited formulationEnriched with potassium for a balanced supplyPromotes vigorous, healthy and compact plant growthAlso suitable for aquariums without soil, if controlled fertilisation is desiredLiquid and ready to useContents: 500 ml or 1000mlUsage and instructionsWeekly water changes of 25 to 50 % are recommended. The dosage can be increased or reduced depending on the aquarium. If nitrate or phosphate levels are already high, the fertiliser should be used with great caution or not at all. If nitrate or phosphate levels rise too sharply as a result of fertilisation, the dosage should be reduced accordingly.
A CO₂ concentration of around 20 mg/l can help to promote vigorous plant growth.Zoo Roco Tip: At the start, check nitrate, phosphate and potassium levels regularly to find the right dosage for your aquarium. When used in combination with an iron and trace element fertiliser, this provides a complete nutrient supply for healthy aquarium plants.

Catappa Leaves XL - 10 pieces
CHF 6.90
Catappa Leaves XL – natural sea almond tree leaves for aquariums and terrariumsCatappa Leaves XL are large, dried leaves of the sea almond tree and are particularly popular in aquariums with tropical fish, shrimp and blackwater species. In water, the leaves release natural tannins and humic substances slowly, which may cause the aquarium water to take on a slightly yellowish to brownish tint.This natural colouring diffuses the light and mimics the habitat of many tropical fish species.
As the leaves slowly decompose, they create valuable grazing areas for shrimp, catfish and other aquarium inhabitants. At the same time, the large leaves provide natural cover and places of refuge. Catappa leaves can also be used decoratively in terrariums and serve as hiding places for small animals or as ground decoration.
Catappa leaves are a popular natural product for natural-looking aquariums, blackwater setups and biotope tanks. When stored dry, they have a very long shelf life and are easy to use.Advantages at a glanceLarge Catappa leaves with a length of 21–40 cmRelease natural tannins and humic substancesSupport a natural blackwater appearanceCan promote the well-being of fishProvide grazing areas for shrimp and catfishAlso suitable as decoration and hiding place in the terrarium100 % natural product
UsageThe leaves can be placed directly into the aquarium. They soak up water and sink to the bottom after some time. There they release their natural substances over several weeks. After about two to three weeks, a new leaf can be added if needed. The old leaves can remain in the aquarium, as they are readily grazed on by shrimp and other animals.Product detailsSize: approx. 21–40 cmContents: 10 piecesMaterial: dried leaves of the sea almond tree, Terminalia catappaSuitable for: freshwater aquariums, blackwater tanks, shrimp aquariums and terrariumsZoo Roco Tip: Catappa Leaves XL can be ideally combined with alder cones, lotus pods, cholla wood or coconut shells. This creates a particularly natural-looking aquarium with many hiding places and valuable surfaces for grazing.

Banana leaves – 20 pieces – dried
CHF 4.90
Banana leaves – natural care and decoration for aquariumsBanana leaves are a natural and decorative addition to freshwater aquariums. They are particularly suitable for shrimp aquariums, blackwater setups and naturally themed tanks. Once in the water, the dried leaves slowly release tannins, helping to create a natural aquarium environment.
The leaves provide small fish, shrimp, snails and crabs with sheltered areas to hide in. As they gradually decompose, they create valuable grazing areas and a natural food source for shrimp and snails. Banana leaves are also popular in shrimp breeding, as they provide the animals with places to retreat to and additional surfaces for grazing.Banana leaves are an interesting alternative or addition to sea almond leaves and can be combined very well with other natural materials such as catappa bark, coconut shells, lotus pods or cholla wood.Advantages at a glanceNatural leaves for aquariums and shrimp tanksRelease tannins into the waterCan help to support a natural blackwater environmentProvide hiding places for small fish, shrimp, snails and crayfishUsed as grazing and feeding areas whilst decomposingNaturally dried and untreatedSafe for fish, shrimp, crayfish and snailsContents: 20 piecesUsageUse approximately 1 leaf per 5 litres of aquarium water. The leaves can be placed directly into the aquarium. They usually sink after 48–72 hours and remain effective for around 2–3 weeks. Afterwards, the remains can be removed or left in the aquarium as a natural food source for shrimp and snails.
Zoo Roco Tip:
Combine banana leaves with catappa leaves, coconut shells or moss-covered stones. This will create a natural arrangement with plenty of hiding places, foraging areas and a particularly harmonious look.

OsmoVital Salt
From
CHF 15.90
Easy-Life OsmoVital Salt – Minerals for stable aquarium waterOsmoVital Salt is a highly soluble hardening and mineral salt, with which you can specifically remineralise osmosis water, demineralised water, filtered rainwater or tap water that is too soft. It increases GH and KH and supplements important trace elements – without nitrate or phosphate.Product features:Hardening and mineral salt for freshwater aquariums
Suitable for remineralising osmosis water and very soft water
Increases GH (total hardness) and KH (carbonate hardness)
Supplements essential vitamins/trace elements (e.g. potassium, iron, manganese, boron, iodide, fluoride)
Without nitrate and without phosphate
Available pack sizes: 250 g, 500 g, 1000 gAdvantages:Helps to establish a more stable aquatic environment (GH supplies minerals, KH supports the pH buffer)
Ideal if your source water is too soft or if you consistently use osmosis water
Easy to use when filling for the first time and during water changesDosage:Dosage (guidelines) per 100 litres (1 measuring spoon = 5 g):
1 spoon: GH +2 °d, KH +1.3 °d, +140 µS/cm
2 spoons: GH +4 °d, KH +2.6 °d, +280 µS/cm
3 spoons: GH +6 °d, KH +3.9 °d, +420 µS/cm
4 spoons: GH +8 °d, KH +5.2 °d, +560 µS/cm
5 spoons: GH +10 °d, KH +6.8 °d, +700 µS/cmIf you work with osmosis water or your tap water is very soft, exactly the minerals that fish, invertebrates and plants need for stable conditions are often missing in the aquarium. Easy-Life OsmoVital Salt addresses this directly: As a highly soluble hardening and mineral salt, it enables you to remineralise soft water quickly and in a controlled manner – ideal for initial filling and every water change.The benefit lies in the targeted adjustment of GH and KH. Total hardness (GH) supplies important minerals, while carbonate hardness (KH) supports the pH value in the aquarium as a buffer. In this way, you create a water profile that can be better adapted to the needs of many freshwater inhabitants – especially if you start deliberately with soft source water and want to set your own values.In addition to hardening, OsmoVital Salt also supplements essential trace elements and vitamins. At the same time, it is free from nitrate and phosphate, which can be an advantage especially in well-maintained planted aquariums and with controlled nutrient management. Thanks to its high solubility, the salt can be dosed and mixed in easily.The dosage table helps you with the adjustment: Per 100 litres and 5 g (1 measuring spoon), GH, KH and conductivity increase in clearly defined steps. This means you can accurately achieve your target values instead of remineralising “at random”. For best results, it is recommended to measure the values after preparing the replacement water and readjust in small steps if necessary.Zoo Roco Tip:Ideally, dissolve OsmoVital Salt in the replacement water (bucket/canister), stir well and measure GH/KH afterwards before adding the water to the tank. This prevents fluctuations in the aquarium. If you keep shrimp or special biotope species, consistently set the target values according to their needs – not to “standard values”.

Natural care for healthy water and vital aquarium inhabitants - with Easy-Life Humin Pro+.Difference to the product Catappa:Below you will find some information to help you better understand the differences between Catappa-X and Humin Pro+: Catappa-X is made from a special blend and extract of catappa leaves.
It has strong antioxidant properties that protect cells from stress and inflammation, promoting fish health. Catappa leaves also contain natural plant dyes that provide more intense and vibrant fish colors. Catappa-X therefore focuses primarily on color enhancement and health promotion. Humin Pro+ is a combination of fulvic and humic acids - organic molecules formed from the decomposition of plant and animal material found in soil, peat, streams and natural waters. Humic acids can replicate the tropical water conditions found in the natural habitat of many aquarium fish. Humin Pro+ is particularly recommended for tropical fish, while Catappa-X is suitable for all fish species. In addition, humic substances stimulate enzyme activity not only in fish, but also in plants and microorganisms in the aquarium. Aquatic plants can absorb nutrients more efficiently, while beneficial microorganisms continue to thrive - ensuring a healthy and stable ecosystem in the aquarium.

How can you vacuum the sludge in the aquarium?
The best way to do this is with a sludge cleaner. A sludge cleaner is a suction cup with a hose that is used in aquariums to clean the substrate and suck up deposits, food residues and organic waste. It helps to keep the substrate clean and improve the water quality.
And this is how cleaning with the sludge vacuum cleaner works:
Preparation: make sure the sludge cleaner is clean and ready to use. Check all components to ensure that they are correctly assembled.
Set-up: Immerse the sludge vacuum cleaner in the aquarium water to fill it with water. Hold the hose vertically upwards and ensure that no air bubbles remain in the hose.
Suction: Hold the muck vacuum cleaner with the suction opening above the area of the substrate that you want to clean. You can now suck in at the end of the hose or use a suction aid. As soon as the water flows freely through the hose, you can direct the hose into a bucket or other suitable container to drain off the extracted water. Or you can use a long hose so that you don't have to keep emptying the boiler.
With the IN-Out from JBL you can also attach the hose directly to the tap.
Cleaning the substrate: Move the mulm vacuum slowly over the substrate, taking care not to suck up too much gravel or substrate. The mulm vacuum will suck up debris, food residue and organic material while the dirty water flows into the bucket.
Monitor the water level: Be sure to monitor the water level in the aquarium during the cleaning process to ensure that not too much water is removed. If necessary, you can add fresh water to correct the water level.
The use of a mulm vacuum should be done regularly as part of aquarium maintenance to prevent a build-up of mulm and organic debris.
The frequency depends on various factors such as the size of the aquarium, the number of fish and the amount of leftover food. By using a sludge vacuum cleaner, you help to improve the water quality in your aquarium and create a healthy living environment for your fish.
How can I clean the aquarium decoration?
To clean the aquarium decorations, you can use a soft brush or sponge to remove stubborn deposits and algae. You can also use a solution of water and vinegar or special aquarium cleaner (JBL Power Clean) to remove stubborn stains.
It is important that you do not use any cleaning agents that are toxic to fish, and ensure that all residues are thoroughly rinsed off so as not to affect the water quality.
How often should an aquarium be cleaned?
The frequency with which an aquarium needs to be cleaned depends on various factors, including the size of the aquarium, the number of fish, the type of filtration and feeding habits. In general, a regular cleaning schedule should be followed to maintain water quality and ensure the health of the fish.
Partial water change: A partial water change of around 20-30% of the water should be carried out every 2–3 weeks to remove pollutants and improve the water quality.
Cleaning the substrate: The substrate should be vacuumed regularly to remove excess food, fish droppings and dirt. This can be done at every water change or as required.
Filter maintenance: The filter should be cleaned regularly to remove deposits and dirt. Depending on the filter type, this can be done every 2–4 weeks. Caution: Do not clean the filter and change the water at the same time.
Algae control: Algae can form in the aquarium and should be removed regularly, either by cleaning the surfaces or by using algae magnets or sponges. It is important to assess the cleaning requirements individually and adjust as necessary.
Good observation of the fish and regular testing of the aquarium water will help to determine whether adjustments need to be made to the cleaning schedule. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
