JBL ProNovo Bits Grano Sinking, staple food for discus and other cichlids from 8 to 20 cmPrebiotic & 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.

JBL Pronovo Spirulina Grano MSpirulina, green food granulate for all small herbivores from 8 to 20 cmSinking, prebiotic Spirulina algae food granulate for herbivorous (plant/algae-eating) aquarium inhabitants such as livebearers and shrimpsNatural raw materials without artificial additives for a natural diet and healthy aquarium fish and invertebrates. 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.
