JBL ProNovo Pleco Wafer M

Staple food wafers in size XL for all plant- and algae-eating sucking catfish from 15 to 40 cm.

  • Large food wafers for all sucking catfish that feed on plants and algae, such as many Hypostomus species. Included wood content covers the needs of catfish species that need to rasp wood
  • Directions for use: Allow to sink to the bottom in the aquarium. For twilight and nocturnal species, feed only after switching off the lights.
  • 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 by fussy species thanks to high-quality raw materials such as spinach, salmon, spirulina and shrimps
  • Scope of delivery: Original sealed, airtight and lightproof, recyclable tin with dosing aid inside the lid ( for 250, 1000 ml)

The group of sucking catfishes is quite diverse in terms of diet: The majority of species feed herbivorously on plants and algae. Of these, many species are also wood eaters. However, there are also species, such as the zebra or cactus catfish, which do not eat plants but micro-organisms, insects and even dead fish. For these species the JBL PRONOVO TAB are the right choice. For all other sucking catfish the JBL PRONOVO PLECO have been developed, which are available in two sizes. Incidentally, experts can tell what the catfish is eating by its teeth.

Some species of sucking catfish do not come out when the light is still on. If you then feed them food tablets, they will disintegrate and tend to be eaten by the other fish, if they like "green food tablets". In this case 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 of a consistency at the time when the catfish are active, so that the sucking catfish have to grate vigorously (important for the teeth - no joke!).

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

Fish also have a sense of taste and would refuse food if it didn't taste good to them. Furthermore, we do NOT keep any species among the 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 sucking 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 its species-appropriate nutrition.

JBL ProNovo Malawi Flakes M
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 PRONOVO CORYDORAS TAB M 100ml
JBL ProNovo Corydoras Tab MAquarium staple food tablets in size M for all armored catfish species from 1 to 20 cm in size in community aquaria.Ideal staple food for all armoured catfish (Corydoras, Aspidoras, Brochis, Scleromystax, Dianema, Hoplosternum etc.).Directions for use: Allow to sink to the bottom of the aquarium. For species that are active at dusk, feed only after the lights have been switched off.Natural raw materials without artificial additives for a natural diet and healthy armoured catfish. Tested on JBL research expeditions in the tropicsVery high acceptance even by fussy species thanks to high-quality raw materials such as salmon, krill, shrimps and spirulinaScope of delivery: original sealed, airtight and lightproof, recyclable tin with dosage aid inside the lidCorys are bottom-dwelling fish species from South America that search for food with their barbels on or in the bottom. Therefore, the substrate should not be coarse and never sharp-edged. They like to live socially (except C. acutus) and are peaceful.Corys are omnivores that eat detritus (crushed organic matter) on or in the substrate. This means that their food spectrum covers almost everything that can be found in natural waters. In JBL PRONOVO CORYDORAS this is taken into account in the composition with plant and animal components.How can you proceed if you keep different bottom dwellers in ONE aquarium?Fish also have a sense of taste and would refuse food if it does not taste good to them. In addition, we do NOT keep any species among the 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 CORYDORAS for armoured catfish and JBL PRONOVO BOTIA for loaches) at the same time. It is even positive for the fish as they are offered more variety.What is the difference between tablets and wafers?From a production point of view, food tablets (e.g. JBL PRONOVO TAB, JBL PRONOVO CORYDORAS) are mechanically pressed together from fine flake or granulated food. Wafers, on the other hand, are thinly cut from a slurry and an "endless sausage" pressed out of the extruder and then dried. The diameter of the "sausage" then gives the diameter of the wafer. In the case of JBL PRONOVO PLECO, this results in two sizes: M and XL.In the production process, wafers can be made harder than food tablets, so that they are still available to the sucking catfish as "hard" food to grate even after some waiting time (until it gets dark).

JBL PRONOVO BOTIA TAB M

JBL ProNovo Botia Tab MStaple food for all loaches fish in the aquarium Ideal staple food for all loaches (Botia species, sucking loaches, fin suckers, spiny loaches).Directions for use: Either let it sink to the bottom of the aquarium or attach it to the aquarium pane from the inside by applying slight pressureNatural 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 by fussy species thanks to high-quality raw materials such as salmon, spirulina and shrimpsScope of delivery: original sealed, airtight and lightproof, recyclable tin with dosing aid inside the lid ( for 100, 250, 1000 ml)All loaches come from Asia and are bottom-oriented fish. They therefore eat mainly from the bottom. Many species, such as the loach, mouse loach, reticulated loach and green loach are good snail eaters!How do bottom dwellers in a community aquarium get their food?You have certainly 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 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! For example, the loaches do not reach the food that ends up in the decoration. This can spoil and quickly lead to algae problems.Here's how it 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 feed 2 types of tablets (e.g. JBL PRONOVO CORYDORAS for armoured catfish and JBL PRONOVO BOTIA for loaches) at the same time without any problems. It is even positive for the fish, as they are offered more variety and yet each group of fish gets its species-appropriate nutrition.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 cut from a slurry and a "continuous sausage" pressed out of the extruder and dried.

JBL PRONOVO TAB M
Liter : 250ml
JBL ProNovo Tab MStaple food for all omnivorous bottom dwellers in the aquarium. Ideal for all bottom-dwelling fish species and also all others when the tablet is attached to the glass.Directions for use: Either let the tablet sink to the bottom of the aquarium or attach it to the aquarium glass with light pressure from the inside.Natural 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 fussy fish species thanks to high-quality raw materials such as shrimps, salmon and tubifexScope of delivery: original sealed, airtight and lightproof, recyclable tin with dosing aid inside the lid ( for 100, 250, 1000 ml)Bottom-dwelling fish tend to look for their food on the bottom, so sinking food tablets are ideal for them. Sinking granulated food for the other fish will also reach the bottom, but really only if too much has been fed! 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 also differ: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 ones take a bite. As soon as the tablet is attached to the pane, all the fish eat it very readily and it is great fun to watch them do so.Among the sucking catfish there are many species which feed mainly on plants (e.g. Antenna catfish, Ancistrus dolichopterus). JBL PRONOVO PLECO was developed for these species. But even among the sucker catfish there are species such as the zebra catfish (Hypancistrus zebra = L 46) or the cactus catfish (Pseudacanthicus cf. leopardus = L 114) which, although not predatory, do not eat plants but animal food.Corydoras have quite an extensive food spectrum. JBL PRONOVO CORYDORAS (Corydoras = scientific name of the armoured catfish species) therefore contains suitable 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 armoured catfish feel on the ground with their barbels.Loaches are also rather omnivorous, they like to eat snails, but sometimes also aquarium plants. JBL PRONOVO BOTIA has been designed for their diet.

JBL PRONOVO CRABS WAFER M
Liter : 100ml
JBL ProNovo Crabs Wafer MStaple food wafers in size M for all crayfish, crabs and shrimps from 1 to 20 cmComplete nutrition with fish and shrimp meat for beautiful colours and healthy growth in crayfish.High-quality, natural carotene (astaxanthin) from spirulina algae ensures beautiful colors in e.g. Cherax and Procambarus species.Ideally balanced ratio of animal and vegetable proteins for healthy growth and problem-free moultingPrebiotic & sinking crayfish food: Special ballast substances in the food provide the beneficial intestinal bacteria with nourishment for healthy digestionScope of delivery: Original sealed, airtight and light-proof, recyclable tin with dosage aid in the lidActually, biologically speaking, the term "crustaceans" is a generic term that includes shrimps, crabs and crayfish. But among aquarium hobbyists it has become accepted that we distinguish between crabs (claw-bearing) and shrimps. We also linguistically include crabs (with a rather round shell) among the crayfish. Among the crabs and hermit crabs there are also land-dwelling species that only visit the water to reproduce. When it comes to food, we can easily group all claw-bearing species together, as their feeding habits are very similar. JBL PRONOVO CRABS therefore contains shrimp and fish, but also vegetable ingredients such as spinach and spirulina. Wood fibres as dietary fibres are also included.When feeding several crayfish in an aquarium it can be useful to feed the crayfish the wafers one after the other. The fastest & strongest one gets the first wafer and then the others can be supplied with "their" wafers. Crayfish find food extremely quickly and reliably through their sense of smell. Therefore it is not necessary to throw a large amount of wafers into an aquarium. Targeted individual feeding is always more sensible. A plastic tube can be very helpful to bring a wafer very specifically to one spot.JBL PRONOVO food is prebioticScientists agree that (pre-)prebiotic food promotes digestion and thus health. In the case of crayfish there is another important aspect: Due to better digestion, less is excreted and thus the water is less polluted, resulting in fewer algae problems and keeping the water cleaner.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.
