Guppies, black mollies, platies, sail carp, gambusia, swordtails and some others belong to the group of livebearing toothcarps. What they all have in common is that they give birth to live young and do not lay eggs like most other fish species. In the wild, livebearers eat insects, insect larvae, algae and anything else they can eat - they are not picky. Depending on the habitat, algae and the small animals living in it often form the largest part of their diet.
Flakes or granules?
Honestly, it's a question of faith! There are only a few arguments for or against the type of food. If you use an automatic feeder such as the JBL AutoFood, you MUST choose granulated food, as almost all automatic feeders are only suitable for granules. If an automatic feeder is due on your next vacation, get your fish used to the granules from the feeder RIGHT AWAY. Some fish actually find it difficult to switch from granules to flakes or vice versa. Imagine that you have always eaten soft cornflakes and are now giving them whole grain muesli for the first time.
Probiotic or prebiotic?
Probiotic foods, such as some types of yogurt, contain live bacterial cultures to promote health, but only when consumed in large quantities. Such foods, including probiotic fish food, can easily spoil and then have the opposite effect. Incidentally, the positive effect on health is controversial.
Pre- or prebiotics are "substrates that are selectively used by host microorganisms and provide health benefits." Scientists agree that they promote digestion and therefore health. Better digestion results in less excretion and therefore less pollution of the water, which keeps the water cleaner and reduces algae problems.

Vesicularia sp.
CHF 12.90
Vesicularia sp. – In vitro plant, 6 cm potVesicularia sp. are mosses that form large, dense mats and grow over decorations, stones and roots. They reproduce by division of the plant. They are easy to care for and are recommended for humid terrariums and aquariums. Supplied as an in vitro plant.
Key featuresDifficulty level: easyLight requirement: low to mediumCO₂ requirement: lowFinal height: up to 10 cmGrowth rate: low to mediumTemperature: 18–28 °CPlacement in the aquarium: on decorationsOrigin: South-East AsiaCup size: 6 cm diameter
Mosses are unique yet low-maintenance plants. Compared to traditional aquarium plants, they differ significantly in appearance. They have no true roots, and their stems and leaves are greatly reduced. They grow in the form of green mats that attach to various surfaces in the aquarium.
Vesicularia spreads by creeping over decorative elements and the substrate. With regular trimming and appropriate shaping, it quickly forms a dense, green carpet. The moss should be attached to a decorative element, for example with cotton thread, thin fishing line or special plant glue.This plant has virtually no special requirements regarding water parameters. It grows well under almost all conditions; water hardness, pH value and lighting can be largely arbitrary. CO₂ supplementation is not required either. Propagation is by dividing the plant into smaller pieces. Pruning and shaping are well tolerated and promote attractive, dense growth.In vitro cultures are free from:BacteriaFungiAlgaeannoying snails
