              Product information

              Information on CO2-carrying hoses: Not every material is suitable for conducting CO2 gas, because many plastics are suitable for air but are permeable to CO2 gas. This is because CO2 diffuses differently to air. That’s why air hoses are unsuitable for CO2 systems. The plastic used for JBL PROFLORA T3 hoses is suitable for CO2 and fits all common CO2 systems.

              Install the hose connections so that they are as short as possible. The shorter the CO2-carrying hoses, the faster the whole system will react when you increase or decrease the pressure at the fine needle valve. But even with short hoses your settings will always have a delayed reaction. So don't wildly turn the fine needle valve of the pressure reducer: adjust it slightly and wait a little before the number of bubbles in the bubble counter (JBL PROFLORA COUNTSAFE) changes.

              CO2 hoses also harden over time and should then be replaced. JBL offers special CO2-resistant hoses: JBL PROFLORA T3.

              FAQ
              How can I remove the hose from the device?

              At first the air hoses and special CO2 hoses can easily be pushed on the connection piece. The hoses harden more and more as the months go on and can only be removed from the connection piece using great force. If you pull the hose hard it will only strain the connection, which could, in the worst case, even break off. Instead cut the hoses you want to remove laterally at the ends and carefully remove them. For this it’s always advisable to install hoses with some reserve in its hose length.

              Why is carbon dioxide (CO2) the most important plant nutrient in the aquarium?

              Carbon dioxide is the nutritional basis for aquatic plants which is supplemented through micro and macronutrients and light. The balance between all these elements is necessary for thriving plant growth in the aquarium.

              Fertilization is not just fertilization Part 1

              Unlike in natural waters, aquariums with fish mostly have a surplus of nutrients caused by feeding and the resulting fish excrement. Thus nitrates and phosphates in large (often too large!) quantities are available for the plants.

              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.

              A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event outside the context of a website, such as a new blog post, a competition or a voucher.

              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.
