Holiday

Holiday time - a rest for your aquarium and for you

Not even weekend trips and holiday journeys are a problem for your fish!

JBL has an automatic feeder which reliably takes over the feeding of your fish and invertebrates during your absence. For your technical items you may need a holiday replacement. For the light using a simple timer switch will suffice.

The modern Automatic feeder can be attached to each aquarium pane or cover. If this is not possible you simply can put the Automatic feeder with little suction cups above a feeder opening. It really fits everywhere!!

Alternatively, JBL also offers weekend and holiday food ( JBL PRONOVO BEL WEEKEND / JBL PRONOVO BEL HOLIDAY and for goldfish JBL PRONOVO RED HOLIDAY ). Here, food is contained in a mineral block. The fish smell the food and eat away at the block, causing the food to gradually dissolve. Leaving the feeding to your neighbour is often not a good idea. No offence meant to your neighbours, but they often have no experience in feeding aquarium fish and in 99 % of the cases will feed too much!

For holidays of up to 6 weeks a partial water change or the cleaning of an external filter is not necessary. With smaller filters it can become necessary to ask a neighbour or a friend for help. Alternatively you just buy a second filter to install but not yet use. Your neighbour now just has to take out the dirty filter and to rinse it under running water so that it doesn’t start to smell. Then just insert the plug of the second filter into the socket – that’s it!

Replacing CO2 cylinders: During several weeks of absence it can happen that your CO2 storage cylinder is empty. A refill entails a drive to the pet shop and often waiting time. JBL has therefore developed a system with which you can switch to the disposal cylinder system in no time provided that you use a refillable system. You unscrew the union nut from the pressure reducer of your refillable system ( Refillable (m) ) by using a size 6 Allen key.

Then the pressure reducer fits on the CO2 disposable cylinder ( JBL PROFLORA u500 ).

With the pressure gauge at the pressure reducer your holiday replacement can immediately recognise whether the cylinder is empty. Then they only need to unscrew the pressure reducer to screw it onto a full spare cylinder. They don’t need to change the CO2 quantity setting and can adopt it as it stands.

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.

JBL GmbH & Co. KG provides this service free of charge, and it is easy to activate or deactivate.
