Salvinia auriculataSalvinia Auriculata (Brazilian salvinia) is a floating plant native to South America. It grows moderately quickly so that its population can be controlled. Easy to grow. Absorbs nitrogen to combat algae. Propagates by spreading.Difficulty of cultivation: easy to mediumLight requirement: medium to highCO₂ requirement: lowHeight of the adult plant: 0.5 cmGrowth: moderate to fastTemperature: 22 - 24°CPlacement in the aquarium: SurfaceOrigin: South and Central AmericaCup diameter 6 cmSalvinia Auriculata (Brazilian Salvinia) is a floating ornamental plant. It is native to the calm, still waters of South and Central America. It can be found from Paraguay to Cuba. It owes its popularity above all to its original appearance. Its small oval leaves with a diameter of 10 mm cm are arranged opposite each other on an elongated leaf stalk. These leaves are covered with fine hairs that trap air bubbles, allowing them to float. Depending on the light intensity, they are wavy or flat. Salvinia forms a third type of underwater leaves on which the spores are deposited.Like all floating plants, Salvinia is recommended for shady waters . Its great appetite for nitrogen and phosphorus compounds makes this plant a good ally in the fight against algae.
Salvinia has low light and nutrient requirements. It grows well in both moderate and strong light. As a floating plant, it does not require a substrate but draws all the necessary nutrients directly from the water. During the vegetation period, it reproduces by spreading, whereby the growth rate is moderate. This makes it easy to control its growth and remove excess plants. It grows to a length of 3-6 cm and likes warm, humid air, so it is advisable to use a glass or cover when growing it.It should be placed in such a way that no condensation falls on the plants. It adapts very quickly to the new parameters. However, it should be borne in mind that it will die if there is too little light. It thrives best in soft to medium-hard water at 22-24°C.
The in vitro culture of plants is carried out in tissue culture laboratories. Thanks to the sterile production conditions, the cuttings are free from snails, algae or pathogens.Planting:The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed of the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Place the plant on the surface of the water.

JBL CRISTALPROFI SYMECPAD Filter fleece for crystal clear water
The JBL CRISTALPROFI SYMECPAD is the ideal filter fleece for the JBL CristalProfi filter and ensures crystal-clear water in your freshwater and saltwater aquarium. With its practical application, it replaces filter sponges in the filter baskets and ensures particularly fine mechanical filtration. It is the perfect solution for reliably removing even the smallest dirt particles from the water and optimizing the water quality.
Product features:
Easy to use: The JBL CRISTALPROFI SYMECPAD can be easily inserted into the filter baskets of the JBL CristalProfi filter, where it replaces filter sponges. It ensures effective fine filtration and thus contributes to a clear and healthy water environment.
Suitable for fresh and salt water: Whether freshwater or saltwater aquarium, the SYMECPAD is ideally suited for both types of aquarium and guarantees thorough mechanical cleaning of the water.
High filtration performance: The filter fleece removes even the finest dirt particles from the water and ensures a visually clear water surface. It therefore improves visibility and contributes to a better quality of life for your aquarium inhabitants.
One-off cleaning: The SYMECPAD can be washed out once if it is very dirty. However, it should be completely replaced after the first cleaning, as the fine structure of the fleece does not allow multiple cleaning cycles.
Durable and efficient: Compared to filter sponges, filter ceramics or sintered glass material, the SYMECPAD is specially designed for finer filtration and enables the targeted removal of dirt particles that other filter materials may not be able to remove.
Zoo Roco tips for use:
Use the JBL CRISTALPROFI SYMECPAD as a fine filter material in your JBL CristalProfi filter to effectively remove even the smallest dirt particles. If the fleece is heavily soiled, you can wash it out once, but be sure to replace it after cleaning as it cannot be washed several times. To ensure constant filtration performance, we recommend replacing the filter fleece regularly and not using it for too long.

UV-C water clarifiers help you to remove white and green water clouding quickly, easily and without a hitch. The UV-C radiation with a wavelength of 200-280 nm has a germicidal effect and thus can combat the cause of the clouding (whitish = bacteria/greenish = floating algae). The water of the aquarium or pond is pumped through the UV-C clarifier with a recommended pump performance where the UV-C radiation kills off the germs in the water as it passes through. The water amount flowing through the clarifier therefore needs to be adapted so that it is not too high! There is a table on the packaging to give you information about the right pump size.Two or more JBL ProCristal UV-C water clarifiers can be connected to each other using the JBL ProCristal UV-C QuickConnect. The performance of the devices add up and the “double device” is then suitable for a higher water amount.
