JBL NitratEX Filter material

AquaMaker is a powerful, fast-working water conditioner. It makes aggressive tap water immediately suitable for all freshwater and marine aquariums. AquaMaker can also be used in reef aquariums and garden ponds. It is absolutely safe for all fish, plants, corals, shrimps, snails and the biological filter. AquaMaker is very versatile: Removes chlorine Removes chloramine Removes heavy metals like copper, zinc and lead Binds and detoxifies poisonous ammonia Binds and neutralizes toxic nitrite Binds and neutralizes nitrate Destresses fish Protects the mucous membrane and gills of fish AquaMaker has no impact on the pH, KH or GH. Furthermore, AquaMaker will not overactivate skimmers.UseAquaMaker is best added to the tap water used for the water change. Only use the dose for the volume of this new tap water. Thus, aggressive substances are immediately neutralized.AquaMaker can of course also be added directly to the aquarium. In this case, base the dosage on the total volume of the aquarium water. DosageThe standard dosage is 10 ml AquaMaker per 50 liters of aquarium water.Or:The standard dosage is 1 US fl oz AquaMaker per 40 US Gallons of aquarium water.Shake before use. The product may release a sulfur odor.Example: dosing to tap water for water changeFive buckets of each 10 liters are filled to change water. Dose 2 ml of AquaMaker in each bucket and mix it. The mixture can be added to the aquarium right away, because AquaMaker works instantly.Example: dosing to an aquariumAn aquarium has a water volume of 100 liters and 20 liters of water is changed. The dosage of AquaMaker is for the full water content, in this case 100 liters. The addition to the aquarium water should be 20 ml of AquaMaker.Deviating dosages – concentrations of chloramine, chlorine and nitrite & water temperature* use a half dose of AquaMaker (5 ml per 50 liters; 1 US fl oz per 80 US Gallons) at low concentrations of chlorine, chloramine or ammonia* use a double dose of AquaMaker (20 ml per 50 liters; 2 US fl oz per 40 US Gallons) at higher concentrations of chlorine, chloramine of ammonia* emergency: use a triple dose of AquaMaker (30 ml per 50 liter; 3 US fl oz per 40 US Gallons) at very high nitrite concentrations (3 mg/L or higher) or at very high ammonia concentrations (1 mg/L or higher)* use up to half a dose of AquaMaker (maximum) as soon as the water temperature reaches  30 ºC (= 86 ºF)

JBL ProNovo Malawi Flakes Staple food flakes for growth-eating cichlids from 8 to 20 cm. Prebiotic ; sinking aquarium fish food: special dietary fibers in the food provide the beneficial intestinal bacteria with nourishment for healthy digestionNatural raw materials without artificial additives for a natural diet and healthy aquarium fish. Tested on JBL research expeditions in the tropicsVery high acceptance even by picky tetra species due to high-quality raw materials such as salmon, shrimps, spirulina and insectsWith the very high quality natural astaxanthin from krill and spirulina, which ensures perfect color formation in Neon and other tetra speciesScope of delivery: original sealed, airtight and lightproof, recyclable tin with click-doser as feeding aid or 20 g in a fresh bagIn the rift valley lakes of East Africa (Lake Malawi and Lake Tanganyika) many cichlids have specialized in grazing the algae growth with the micro-organisms living in it from the rocks (herbivorous growth eaters). JBL PRONOVO MALAWI was developed for these species.In contrast, almost all other species in both lakes live predatorily and eat fish, microorganisms, shrimps and fish fry. Some even eat only the scales of other fish (Plecodus). JBL PRONOVO TANGANYIKA was developed for the predatory species of both lakes. If both groups are kept together in ONE aquarium, it is essential to offer both types of food. In this way each type of food gets the right food for it.Typical predators from Lake Tanganyika: Lamprologus, Neolamprologus, Julidochromis, Cyphotilapia, Telmatochromis, Chalinochromis Typical predators from Lake Malawi: Trematocranus, Haplochromis, Nimbochromis, Sciaenochromis, Labidochromis.Advantages of JBL foods: Use of pure fish protein without cheap fish meal. Optimal protein-fat ratio. Mainly proteins from aquatic animals. Reduction of algae growth and optimal fish growth due to adjusted phosphate content. Prebiotic: Prebiotics are "substrates that are selectively utilized by host microorganisms and impart health benefits." Here, scientists agree that they promote digestion and thus health. In the case of our fish, there is another essential aspect: With better digestion, less is excreted and thus the water is less polluted, resulting in fewer algae problems and keeping the water cleaner.Since the majority of maintained cichlids from Lake Tanganyika are predatory, the food for predatory species was named PRONOVO TANGANYIKA. Since most of the species kept in Lake Malawi are predators, JBL has named this food PRONOVO MALAWI.

JBL FilterBoost - Bacteria to enhance the filter performance for freshwater and marine aquariums Optimises the filter performance and prolongs the intervals between filter cleaning. For setting-up new aquariums and after water changes and fish diseases for freshwater/marine aquariums, turtle and shrimp tanks Put the granulate into the pre-filter or the first filter stage of your internal or external filter Sludge breakdown by pure bacteria cultures. No clogging of filter materials. The filter needs cleaning less often Bacteria activated granulate: sufficient for 5 - 6 l filter volume Package contents: 1 pack FilterBoost, 25 ml. Use: 25 g/5 - 6 l filter volume Nature at Home – Home for fish and plantsFish and invertebrates need to feel as much at home in the aquarium as in the wild Transform your aquarium water into biotope-like water to protect your aquarium dwellers. FilterBoost promotes the breakdown of organic sediments, reduces the slime formation and prolongs the filter cleaning intervals.Advantages of JBL FilterBoostIt prevents the filter from becoming clogged from the start – the filter material needs cleaning less often.

JBL Pronovo Color Grano SColor food granules for strong colors in all aquarium fish from 3 to 10 cmStrong color formation in aquarium fish due to high-quality, natural astaxanthin (a carotene) from krill shrimpPrebiotic aquarium fish food: special dietary fibers in the food provide beneficial intestinal bacteria with nourishment for healthy digestionNatural raw materials without artificial additives for a natural diet and healthy aquarium fish. Tested on JBL research expeditions in the tropicsVery high acceptance even by picky fish species due to high-quality raw materials such as salmon, squid and krillScope of delivery: original sealed, airtight and light-tight, recyclable tin with dosing aid inside the lidFish show their colors with almost any food, but the color expression can be intensified by certain types of food, as it happens with humans by feeding them carrots. How intense the colors can be in fish is shown by courtship or fighting males. However, JBL does not use cheap carotene, but natural astaxanthin (also a carotene) obtained from krill shrimp and spirulina algae. This is much more expensive, but a natural way to promote beautiful colors in fish.The biological species concept for ornamental fish:In addition to a staple food such as JBL PRONOVO BEL or JBL PRONOVO COLOR for community aquariums, the JBL PRONOVO species concept is available to your fish. Within the species concept you can supplement food specifically for fish species or also select it instead of the main food. It is not a problem if, for example, your fighting fish also eats the food for your barbs and vice versa. It is only important that you offer the appropriate food for each group of fish. Variety is always positive!For example, would you like to feed your neon or armored catfish exactly the right food in each case? No problem: in the JBL species concept you will find a granulate for neon tetra (and other small tetras) which is suitable for mouths and whose composition is precisely adapted to the needs of the fish, including insects: JBL PRONOVO NEON. In their natural habitats in South America, neon tetras live in very nutrient-poor blackwater biotopes and depend on small, mouth-appropriate plankton. Corydoras, on the other hand, live on the bottom and have a different food spectrum. JBL PRONOVO CORYDORAS (Corydoras = scientific name of the armored catfish species) therefore contains the appropriate raw materials, such as shrimps and spirulina.
