Product information

Chemical-free and harmless
Due to excessive feeding snails in the aquarium can reproduce rapidly. With the chemical-free snail trap Lim Collect II snails can be harmlessly and effectively caught and thus reduced in the aquarium.

Lim Collect II
The chemical-free snail trap has 2 small rods, which can be variably inserted in height to prevent fish from entering unintentionally. Should this still happen, the fish will not get any oxygen problems because of the water supply. The trap is also suitable to catch shrimp or crabs.

Easy to use
At night most fish have a resting phase. The exception are nocturnal fish such as many armored catfish. There is therefore only a low probability that smaller fish will enter the trap at night. Fill the snail trap with food, select the height to insert the rods and place the snail trap in the aquarium. Due to the inside leading struts, the snails will not be able to leave the trap again.

FAQ
JBL LimCollect II: Why is it best to only use the snail trap at night?

At night most fish have a sort of rest phase (although they do not necessarily sleep). Here, darkness means night, since activity decreases with darkness. Nocturnal fish - like many loricariid catfish - are exceptions, but generally the chances of smaller fish passing the fish trap at night are lower.

When snails in the aquarium become a problem

Snails are welcome inhabitants in the aquarium and fulfil important tasks. However, there are also snail species that are hermaphroditic and seem to reproduce uncontrollably when a large food supply is present.

If you are facing problems with snails in your tank, then you should probably buy this product. It is really effective and you can have a snail-free tank, by removing all these unwanted snails within a few hours! You just have to insert a fish food tablet into the trap, and wait for the snails to act!

highly recommended !

When you don't want to buy killer snails this is a good alternative to get rid of a snail plague. It can always happen that you buy new plants that entail snail eggs. This can become a big plague fast. Since I use this method the plague is my tank is 80% reduced.

Le meilleur produit actuellement sur le marché.

J'avais peur point mes crevettes mais pas de problème, elles rentrent et sortent sans problème.

Je l'utilise dans tous mes bacs sauf un parce que j'y ai des sewellias, que j'ai retrouvés coincés. Mais c'est parce que c'est vraiment super fin.

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).

Web notifications are part of the W3C standard and define an API for end user notifications. A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event, such as a new blog post, outside the context of a website.
