Product information

Armored catfish are bottom-dwelling fish species from South America which search for food with their barbels on or in the substrate. That’s why it’s important the substrate is never coarse or sharp-edged. They like to live socially (except C. acutus) and are peaceful creatures.

Armored catfish are omnivores which 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 the JBL PRONOVO CORYDORAS this is taken into account in the composition with plant and animal components.

What do you do if you have different bottom dwellers in one aquarium?
Fish also have a sense of taste and refuse food they don’t like. We do not keep ANY bottom-dwelling species, which would experience problems if they ate from a food tablet intended for another species (e.g. loaches). So feed both types of tablets (e.g. JBL PRONOVO CORYDORAS for armored catfish and JBL PRONOVO BOTIA for loaches) at the same time. It is even beneficial for the fish, as they are being offered more variety.

What is the difference between tablets and wafers?
During the food production process, food tablets (e.g. JBL PRONOVO TAB, JBL PRONOVO CORYDORAS) are mechanically compressed from fine flake or granulate food. Wafers, on the other hand, are thinly cut from a pulp, pressed out of the extruder as a "continuous sausage" and then dried. The diameter of the "sausage" is then 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 scrape off even after some waiting time (until it gets dark).

FAQ
How long does the food keep after opening?

Please ensure you buy a packaging size suitable for your aquarium/terrarium/pond so that the quantity contained is used up within 4 months. Compare it with a tin of biscuits lying around for several months. When properly stored they are not necessarily soggy, but they are not quite as tasty as when the packet was opened. Therefore it is not advisable to use the food after this time.

The repeated opening and closing of the packaging brings the food into contact with bacteria and humidity over a longer storage period. Thus the quality of the premium food reduces continuously and this influences the vitamin content and the freshness of the food. For the benefit of your animals you always should feed them fresh food.

Amazing food! I have a 150P tank with 20 adolfoi corydoras and they seem to like this a lot! I have tried some other brands too, just to compare them and they always prefer this one! I am going to buy it again! 5/5 stars !

Sinkt schnell ab und lässt sich auch in kleinere Brocken teilen. Die Welse (Corydoras, Hexenwelse, L-Welse) gehen gut dran. Auch die Skalare tauchen ab und fressen davon.

Wir sind genauso zufrieden mit dem Fischfutter für die Corys wie unsere Community.

Sie sagen, sowie wir, es ist ein super Preis Leistungsverhältnis und die anderen Welse mögen sich ebenfalls gerne daran bedienen

Una comida especifica para corydoras, pero los gupys y ancistrus también se acercan a comer. En pocas palabras para corydoras es perfecta pero también para los demás miembros del acuario

Una comida perfecta para las corydoras, se disuelve en el tiempo justo para que un grupo de 6 corydoras les de tiempo de comer, es cierto que también pican de las pastillas otros peces y eso significa que han dado con la fórmula exacta de lo que le gustan a nuestros peces. Recomendable!

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).
