Oxygen Explosion in the Aquarium – The Right Fertilisation

May I introduce you to my aquarium? A lot of JBL employees have an aquarium at home and this hobby extends into their private life. Every evening my aquarium resembles a “whirlpool“ with a thousand little oxygen bubbles. This is the time I relax and wind down after a long day. This doesn’t only make me feel good but is obviously good for the plants too. And it’s not a lot of effort to maintain either.

Let’s start with the facts:

- aquarium: 300 l, running time 6 months

- lighting: 4 x 54W JBL SOLAR NATUR T5 ULTRA 24-39 W

- water values: - Fe 0.6 mg/l, K = 20 mg/l, Mg = 6 mg/l, PO4 = 0.6 mg/l, NO3 = 15 mg/l, CO2 = 32 mg/l (90 bubbles/min)

- water change: 50% weekly, pruning, - expenditure of time incl. water change 1.5 h/week

- daily dosage: 15-20 ml JBL PROSCAPE Fe +MICROELEMENTS , 15-20 ml JBL PROSCAPE NPK MACROELEMENTS occasionally JBL PROSCAPE N MACROELEMENTS

Background Knowledge

I’m sure quite a few of the values will seem unusual at first glance, perhaps even far too high. But anyone who has spent time researching aquatic plants fertilisation will quickly understand the reasons for the success.

Unlike in natural waters, fish feeding and the resulting excrement usually means that we have a surplus of fish food in aquariums. It also means that nitrates and phosphates are present in sufficient quantities for the plants, but that CO2 (carbon dioxide), iron (Fe), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg) and further trace elements need to be added. For this reason JBL Ferropol was developed. In a scaped aquarium the situation is different again, because of the low animal stock (and therefore lower food quantities). Here the supply of nitrates (N) and phosphates (P), usually provided by the food and the animal excrements, need to be added with the fertiliser.

Potassium is, furthermore, a fast depleting mineral, so JBL has designed a NPK fertiliser which contains three pre-mixed substances ( JBL PROSCAPE NPK MACROELEMENTS ). With the help of the JBL PROAQUATEST NO3 Nitrato , the JBL PROAQUATEST PO4 Phosphat Sensitive and the JBL PROAQUATEST K Potássio you can check, whether the JBL PROSCAPE NPK MACROELEMENTS fertiliser suits your plants’ consumption. If you find out that the nutrients are being consumed at different speeds, you can start to add them individually, while monitoring them all the time. For this reason JBL provides the components individually: JBL PROSCAPE N MACROELEMENTS , JBL PROSCAPE P MACROELEMENTS , JBL PROSCAPE K MACROELEMENTS e JBL PROSCAPE Mg MACROELEMENTS . A very popular supplement is primary rock powder, which contains a very high natural trace element content ( JBL PROSCAPE VOLCANO POWDER ).

PUSH messages from JBL

As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to users' desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. 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 for as long as its users have a browser open - regardless of 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.
