JBL ProNovo Pleco Wafer XL

Staple food in the form of Wafers XL for all herbivorous and algae-eating suckermouth catfish from 15 to 40 cm.

Large food wafers for all suckermouth catfish that feed on plants and algae, such as many Hypostomus species. The wood content covers the requirements of catfish species that need to grate wood
Application: Allow to sink to the bottom of the aquarium. For crepuscular and nocturnal species, only feed after the lights have been switched off
Natural raw materials without artificial additives for a natural diet and healthy aquarium fish. Tested on JBL research expeditions in the tropics
Very high acceptance even with picky species thanks to high-quality raw materials such as spinach, salmon, spirulina and shrimps
Scope of delivery: Original sealed, air and light-tight, recyclable can with dosing aid inside the lid (for 250, 1000 ml)

The group of suckermouth catfish is quite diverse in terms of diet: the majority of species feed herbivorously on plants and algae. Many of these species are also wood-eaters. However, there are also species such as the zebra or cactus catfish that do not eat plants, but microorganisms, insects and even dead fish. JBL PRONOVO TABs are the right choice for these species. The JBL PRONOVO PLECO, which is available in two sizes, was developed for all other suckermouth catfish. By the way, experts can recognize what the catfish eats by its teeth.

Some species of suckermouth catfish do not come out when the light is still on. If you then feed them food tablets, they will disintegrate and are more likely to be eaten by the other fish, if they like "green food tablets". It is advisable to feed JBL PRONOVO PLECO AFTER switching off the light. The wafers (chips, which are thinner than food tablets) do not dissolve so quickly and are still in a consistency that the catfish have to grate vigorously (important for the teeth - no joke!) when the catfish are active.

How can you proceed if you keep different bottom dwellers in an aquarium?

Fish also have a sense of taste and will refuse food if they don't like it. In addition, we do NOT keep any bottom dwellers for which it would be problematic if they ate a food tablet that was actually intended for another species (e.g. loaches). You can therefore feed both types of tablet (e.g. JBL PRONOVO PLECO for herbivorous suckermouth catfish and JBL PRONOVO TAB for carnivorous or omnivorous catfish) at the same time. It is even positive for the fish, as they are offered more variety and yet each group of fish gets their species-appropriate diet.

JBL PRONOVO TAB M

Liter : 250ml

JBL ProNovo Tab MSinking staple food for all omnivorous bottom dwellers in the aquarium. Ideal for all bottom-dwelling fish species and all others if the tablet is attached to the glassApplication: Either allow to sink to the bottom of the aquarium or attach to the aquarium glass with light pressure from the insideNatural raw materials without artificial additives for a natural diet and healthy aquarium fish. Tested on JBL research expeditions in the tropicsVery high acceptance even with picky fish species thanks to high-quality raw materials such as shrimps, salmon and tubifexScope of delivery: Original sealed, airtight and lightproof, recyclable can with dosing aid inside the lid (for 100, 250, 1000 ml)Bottom-dwelling fish tend to look for their food at the bottom, so sinking food tablets are ideal for them. Sinking granulated food for the other fish will also reach the bottom, but only if they have been fed too much! It therefore makes sense to feed the free-swimming and bottom-dwelling fish species separately.The biological species concept for ornamental fish:The nutritional requirements of bottom dwellers are also different:Almost all bottom-dwelling fish species eat JBL PRONOVO TAB. But even the free-swimming fish species quickly learn by smell that the tablet consists of food. Very large fish eat it whole, smaller fish bite it off. As soon as the tablet is attached to the glass, all the fish love to eat it and it is great fun to watch them do so.There are many species of suckermouth catfish that feed mainly on plants (e.g. antenna catfish, Ancistrus dolichopterus). JBL PRONOVO PLECO was developed for these species. But there are also species among the suckermouth catfish, such as the zebra catfish (Hypancistrus zebra = L 46) or the cactus catfish (Pseudacanthicus cf. leopardus = L 114), which do not live a predatory life, but do not eat plants but animal food.Armored catfish have a very extensive food spectrum. The JBL PRONOVO CORYDORAS (Corydoras = scientific name of the armored catfish species) therefore contains the appropriate raw materials, such as shrimps and spirulina. Corydoras need a varied diet for a healthy diet. The shrimps are representative of all the small animal organisms and also carrion, which the armored catfish feel on the ground with their barbels.Loaches also tend to be omnivores that like to eat snails, but sometimes also aquarium plants. JBL PRONOVO BOTIA was designed for their diet.

JBL PRONOVO BOTIA TAB M

Liter : 100ml

JBL ProNovo Botia Tab MStaple food for all loach-like fish in the aquarium Ideal staple food for all loach-like fish (Botia species, sucking loaches, fin suckers, spiny eyes)Application: Either allow to sink to the bottom of the aquarium or attach to the aquarium glass with light pressure from the insideNatural raw materials without artificial additives for a natural diet and healthy aquarium fish. Tested on JBL research expeditions in the tropicsVery high acceptance even with picky species thanks to high-quality raw materials such as salmon, spirulina and shrimpsScope of delivery: Original sealed, air and light-tight, recyclable can with dosing aid inside the lid (for 100, 250, 1000 ml)All loach species come from Asia and are bottom-oriented fish. They therefore feed mainly from the bottom. Many species, e.g. the splendid loach, mouse loach, net loach and green loach are good snail eaters!How do bottom dwellers in community aquariums get their food?You've probably seen it before: Someone throws a food tablet into the aquarium for their bottom-dwelling loaches, but the fish in the other water zones grab the food tablet and the loaches go away empty-handed! The other variant: The loaches should get some of the food from the other fish. In this case, however, there is usually enough food for the loaches and the algae! The loaches, for example, do not reach the food that ends up in the decoration. This can spoil and quickly lead to algae problems.This works better: first feed the fish in the upper water layers and then, when they are in a feeding frenzy, throw in one or two food tablets for the loaches.How can you proceed if you keep different bottom dwellers in one aquarium?You can easily feed 2 types of tablets (e.g. JBL PRONOVO CORYDORAS for armored catfish and JBL PRONOVO BOTIA for loaches) at the same time. It is even positive for the fish, as they are offered more variety and yet each group of fish gets their species-appropriate diet.What is the difference between tablets and wafers?Food tablets (e.g. JBL PRONOVO TAB, JBL PRONOVO BOTIA) are mechanically compressed from fine flake food. Wafers, on the other hand, are thinly sliced and dried from a slurry and an "endless sausage" pressed out of the extruder.

JBL PRONOVO CRABS WAFER M

Liter : 100ml

JBL ProNovo Crabs Wafer M Wafers for all scissor-bearing crabs, shrimps and prawns from 1 to 20 cm in size in community aquaria.Complete nutrition with fish and shrimp meat for beautiful colors and healthy growth in crabsHigh-quality, natural carotene (astaxanthin) from spirulina algae ensures beautiful coloration in e.g. Cherax and Procambarus speciesIdeally balanced ratio of animal and plant proteins for healthy growth and problem-free moultingPrebiotic & sinking crustacean food: Special dietary fibres in the food provide the beneficial intestinal bacteria with food for healthy digestionScope of delivery: Original sealed, airtight and lightproof, recyclable tin with dosing aid in the lidIn biological terms, the term "crustaceans" is actually a generic term that includes shrimps, crabs and crayfish. However, aquarists have come to distinguish between crabs (with claws) and shrimps. We also linguistically classify crabs (with rather round shells) as crayfish. Among the crabs and hermit crabs, there are also land-living species that only visit the water to reproduce. When it comes to food, we can group all claw-bearing species together, as their feeding habits are very similar. JBL PRONOVO CRABS therefore contains shrimps and fish, but also plant-based ingredients such as spinach and spirulina. Wood fibers are also included as dietary fiber.When feeding several crayfish in an aquarium, it can be useful to feed the wafers to the crayfish one after the other. The fastest and strongest will get the first wafer and then the others can be given "their" wafers. Crabs find food extremely quickly and reliably using their sense of smell. It is therefore not necessary to throw a large quantity of wafers into an aquarium. Targeted individual feeding always makes more sense. A plastic tube can be very helpful to bring a wafer to a specific spot.JBL PRONOVO food is prebioticScientists agree that (pre-)prebiotic food promotes digestion and therefore health. In the case of crayfish there is another important aspect: Better digestion results in less excretion and therefore less pollution of the water, resulting in fewer algae problems and cleaner water.A head start through researchThe results of JBL research expeditions, together with the knowledge of the JBL research and development team, have led to optimal, balanced food mixtures made from high-quality ingredients.
