Can food lead to illness?

Nutritional deficiencies

It’s a strange-sounding topic, but unfortunately an important one. On production, quality food, such as JBL’s, has the high vitamin content the fish need for their immune system. About 3 months after first opening the container/bucket, the vitamin content has decreased dramatically due to the air and the influence of light and the food needs to be used up or new food purchased. This is comparable to frozen vegetables in an open packet. If the same food is still being fed 3 months later, it can lead to vitamin deficiencies, which in turn can lead to an increased susceptibility to germs.

If you buy very cheap brown pellets, either to save money or because you don't know the difference, you won’t usually get pond fish food, you'll get trout or carp fattening feed, with a composition completely unsuitable for your pond fish. It will massively overfatten your pond fish and eventually lead to their death.

Like us humans, fish also need a balanced diet, as they have adapted to their dietary needs in the course of their evolution, and their diet in the wild is generally very diverse. This diversity and the metabolism’s demand on the food was a consideration during the development of the PROPOND® range. Each individual PROPOND® / NEO Index® food can be fed to your fish as a complete food to keep them healthy. Nevertheless fish appreciate variety too and they’ll reward you with even more beautiful colours, increased growth, trust and often also with offspring. Have a look at the JBL PROPOND concept and make one or two additions to your basic food.

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.
