JBL pH Test 3.0-10.0
Variant: Test set | Variant (2): Test set
JBL pH Test 3.0-10.0 - Quick test to determine the acidity in ponds as well as in freshwater and marine aquariums Easy and reliable monitoring of the water values of aquariums and ponds. Determines the ideal pH values for freshwater and seawater Quick test: fill plastic vial with sample water, add reagent, read value of the sample off colour chart When to use: for setting up a new aquarium: daily for one week, afterwards weekly 1 quick test, pH Test 3-10 Test for approx. 80 measurements Healthy aquarium/healthy pond with conditions close to natureThe right water values are dependent on the fish stock and the plants in the aquarium/pond. Even if the water looks clear it can be contaminated. With bad values diseases or algae can appear in the aquarium/pond. To maintain a healthy aquarium/pond with conditions close to nature it is important to check and adapt the water values regularly. For each water analysis JBL provides water tests in the form of quick tests or colour change tests. These determine a certain value or several values in one go. With these water tests you can recognise algae problems and negative nitrate, nitrite, potassium, magnesium values etc. Why test?The well-being of aquarium and pond dwellers and the growth of aquatic plants depend to a large extent on the pH level being kept as constant as possible. The pH level can also affect many substances dissolved in the water. Fluctuations in the pH level are definitely to be avoided.

JBL ProNovo Bits Grano S 1000ml
JBL ProNovo Bits Grano Sinking, staple food for discus and other cichlids from 3 to 10 cm Prebiotic & sinking aquarium fish food: special dietary fibers in the food provide the beneficial intestinal bacteria with nourishment for healthy digestion Natural raw materials without artificial additives for a natural diet and healthy cichlids. Tested on JBL research expeditions in the tropics Very high acceptance even by picky cichlid species due to high-quality raw materials such as salmon, shrimp and squid With the very high-quality natural astaxanthin from krill and spirulina, which ensures perfect color formation in cichlids such as discus Scope of delivery: original sealed, airtight and lightproof, recyclable tin with dosing aid in the lid (250/1000 ml)Discus cichlids and some other cichlid species can be very picky about their food. In the JBL PRONOVO BITS this has been considered and therefore raw materials such as shrimps have been chosen which the fish cannot resist. Since discus and cichlids living in the same biotope adapt their food spectrum to dry and rainy seasons, but we do not reproduce this in the aquarium, the food must be very versatile. In the rainy season of Amazonia, when the water level rises to 9 m, discus even eat fruits and other vegetable components! In the dry season, discus orientate themselves towards the bottom and, apart from shrimps, eat everything they can find from the bottom. 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, causing fewer algae problems and keeping the water cleaner. Don't be surprised that squid is listed among the raw materials! In the feed declaration, squid is representative of all mollusks, including mussels and snails. Of course, squid are not part of the natural food spectrum of the discus.

They range in size from a few centimeters (checkerboard cichlid) to 80 cm crenicichla species. All cichlids practice brood care. Their food spectrum ranges from microorganisms to plants and other fish. Therefore it is important to be well informed about the species kept in the aquarium! JBL PRONOVO CICHLID S has been specially developed for smaller species up to about 10/12 cm in length. The most common of these species kept in the aquarium are Microgeophagus, Apistogramma, Pelvicachromis, Pelmatochromis, Nannacara, Nanochromis, Crenicara, Laetacara, Dicrossus and Ivanacara. Earth eaters of the genera Geophagus and Satanoperca grow larger, but also prefer rather smaller food, which they pick out of the sand (hence the name Earth eater). JBL PRONOVO CICHLID M is suitable for all medium-sized cichlids from 8 to 20 cm. This includes many species of the genera Cichlasoma, Acarichthys, Aequidens, Thorichthys, Amalatitlania, Crytoheros, Heros, Andinocara, Pterophyllum, Uaru and many more.JBL PRONOVO CICHLID XL is then ideal for the big guys between 15 and 25 cm.

It sinks to the bottom and 1 block provides about 15 ornamental fish up to 10 cm size with food for 3 days The block consists of a calcium compound that adds some total hardness to the water when dissolved. It dissolves slowly through the feed intake of the fish Natural raw materials without artificial additives for a natural diet and healthy aquarium fish. Tested on JBL research expeditions in the tropics. Scope of delivery: 4 food blocks. 1 block for feeding 15 fish over 3 days.Aquariums are the easiest pets for owners to care for during a weekend or vacation trip. Very few species of fish cannot be fed with commercial food and will only accept live food. For a weekend or longer vacation, the aquarium owner has a choice: either feed JBL PRONOVO BEL WEEKEND (for 3 days) or JBL PRONOVO BEL HOLIDAY (for 2 weeks) or use an automatic feeder (JBL AUTOFOOD), which is filled with his preferred feed granulate.Most aquarium fish, excluding juveniles, would even go a day or two without food - just like in nature. But then many aquarium owners get a guilty conscience and therefore JBL PRONOVO BEL WEEKEND is available even for a short absence.The food blocks in JBL PRONOVO BEL HOLIDAY and WEEKEND consist of a natural calcium compound which slowly dissolves when the fish "nibble" on it. Bottom-dwelling fish such as armored catfish or loaches also quickly smell the contained food and then also provide themselves with food as needed. Be careful when you ask neighbors to feed your fish! Most people then mean it too well and overfeed massively. Then large amounts of food lie uneaten on the aquarium floor and spoil. This leads to serious problems with oxygen levels and toxic nitrite that then builds up. A vacation feeder or a feeder (or aquarists as neighbors) are the better way.

Tested on JBL research expeditions in the tropics Very high acceptance even by picky tetra species due to high-quality raw materials such as salmon, shrimp, spirulina and insects With the very high-quality natural astaxanthin from krill and spirulina, which ensures perfect color formation in Neon and other tetra species Scope of delivery: original sealed, airtight and lightproof, recyclable tin with click-doser as feeding aid or 20 g in a fresh bag In 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.

Tested on JBL research expeditions in the tropicsVery high acceptance even by fussy fish & shrimp species due to high-quality raw materials such as spirulina and shrimpsVery high spirulina algae content of 20 % for healthy fish and optimum colour formationScope of delivery: original sealed, airtight and light-proof, recyclable tin with click-doser as feeding aidSpirulina are blue-green algae, some species of which, such as the S. platensis processed here, have ideal protein contents for feeding ornamental fish. Incidentally, the spirulina content of 20 % in JBL PRONOVO SPIRULINA food is optimal - more would not be healthy for the fish! The natural astaxanthin (a carotene) in the algae causes the beautiful colouring of the fish. This is another reason why spirulina algae are very popular for feeding ornamental fish.Probiotic or prebiotic - which is better?Probiotic foods, such as some types of yoghurt, contain live bacterial cultures to promote health, but only if consumed in larger quantities. Such foods, including probiotic fish food, can easily spoil and then have the opposite effect. The positive effect on health is, by the way, quite controversial.Pre- or prebiotics are "substrates that are selectively used 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, which keeps the water cleaner and results in fewer algae problems.Flakes or granules?Honestly: It is a kind of question of faith! There are few arguments for or against the type of food. If you use an automatic feeder such as the JBL AutoFood, you MUST choose granulate food, as almost all automatic feeders are only suitable for granulates. If an automatic feeder is due on your next holiday, get your fish used to the granules from the feeder RIGHT NOW. Some fish actually find it a little difficult to switch from granules to flakes or vice versa. Imagine that you have always eaten soft cornflakes and are now getting wholemeal cereal for the first time.
