Microbe-Lift Substrate Cleaner for aquariums
Microbe-Lift Substrate Cleaner - dirt & phosphate remover
A specially developed bacterial preparation for use in marine & freshwater aquariums. Contains special bacteria, cellulosic ingredients and selected biological accelerators that form an effective combination for the reduction of organic waste in the aquarium.
Features and benefits:
Reduces and binds nutrients including phosphates
Cleans the substrate
Reduces nitrate and phosphate sources in the substrate and rocks
Rapid and natural sludge and dirt removal
Eliminates harmful gaseous compounds
Achieves sustainable crystal clear water
Contains natural bacterial strains from mangrove areas Based on an organic accelerator with cellulosic ingredients.
Based on an organic and microbial foundation
Works 80% faster than commercially available bacterial products
When organic solids collect or dissolve on the bottom of the aquarium, toxic gases and their by-products are released into the aquarium. These gaseous by-products endanger fish and plants.
The Gravel&Substrate Cleaner breaks down these organic solids, reduces and eliminates the potentially harmful gaseous compounds and helps to clean the aquarium sustainably.
Recommended for use with all Microbe-Lift products.
Dosage:
Dirty aquariums:
For visible accumulations of mulm and dirt, add two teaspoons (10 ml) to 40 liters every 14 days until the substrate is clean. Then follow the maintenance and care schedule.
Maintenance and care:
Add one teaspoon (5 ml) to 40 liters once a month to prevent the accumulation of mulm and dirt.

Sanital multipurpose aquarium salt with aloe vera
This product works in a similar way to Ektozon.Tropical’s Sanital Multi-Purpose Aquarium Salt with Aloe Vera has been specially developed for prophylactic use and the preparation of baths for fish following transport or during the acclimatisation period. Active substances accelerate recovery and treat ionic imbalances caused by adverse environmental factors. Aloe vera accelerates the regeneration of the epidermis and stimulates the immune system. The liquid blue UV filter gives the water a sky-blue colour and prevents algae growth. Sanital can be used after every water change or as required. Thanks to its natural ingredients, it is harmless to fish and the environment. Sanital Multi-purpose Aquarium Salt can be used in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums.

Potassium from Easy Life
Easy Life Potassium is a macronutrient and at least as important as iron.
Potassium is used particularly in areas with soft water. This manifests itself in white, discoloured leaves at the growth point of a plant. Black spots may also appear on the leaves.
It is recommended to add both Easy Life Ferro and Easy Life Potassium to replenish and prevent deficiencies, particularly in aquariums with many fast-growing plants.
DosageOnce a week: 10 ml per 100 L of water 10 ml per 100 litres increases the calcium concentration by 4 ppm = 4 mg/l.

Natural lighting conditions
This is particularly important as it has not yet been possible to simulate natural light conditions in the terrarium. In nature, light intensities of 100,000 lux and more are achieved. A high light intensity is particularly important for the well-being of desert dwellers and influences the colouration and activity of the animals. Although the Bright Sun 70W does not quite come close to the sun with over 60,000 lux at a distance of 30 cm, it is far ahead of mixed-light UV spotlights (approx. 10,000 lux), fluorescent lamps and spotlights.
High energy efficiency
The basis for this high light output is the energy efficiency of the lamp. A large proportion of the energy used is converted into light, whereas with filament lamps 95% of the energy is converted into heat. As a result, the waste heat of the lamps is low and they can also be used in smaller terrariums. Thanks to the efficient reflector design, almost all the heat generated is concentrated in the light focus, making the lamp ideal for creating warm basking areas.
Optimised for desert reptiles
The spectrum of the lamp has been optimised for desert reptiles. Tests have shown that reptiles from desert regions prefer a daylight spectrum with a colour temperature of approx. 6000K. This is achieved by the BrightSun UV Desert. Together with the heat and UV radiation as well as the high illuminance, the animals practically have a small mini sun in the terrarium.
The expected lifespan is over 6000 hours; however, replacement is recommended after one year, as the spectrum begins to change after a certain age due to technological factors, and both UV radiation and overall light output diminish over time. The Bright Sun fits into E27 porcelain sockets, but requires a special ballast such as the Lucky Reptile Bright Control ballasts for operation.
