How a marine aquarium is created Part 28: When space in the aquarium is at a premium.

Coral Banks or Coral Racks are a great invention. They are made of ceramic and have one or more magnets. They are a great way to extend the stone structure over the discs. We have made a small series about this, in which we also talk about other things that are currently on the agenda.

The new GNC BLU-RAY 130W LED LUMINAIRE

A very interesting LED with compact dimensions of 400x300x40 mm is coming onto the market in March 2019 via the distributor aquariOOm. We show you what the LED can do.

Magazine: Professional seawater and freshwater plant construction

Today we are talking about professional facility construction, which the Kölle Zoo Group calls individual projects. For us, this meant a whole day on the road with professional Thilo Schwarz, during which we were able to take a detailed look at a total of 5 professional marine and freshwater facilities. This resulted in a film that we are happy to show you today.

The marine aquariums of Paul and Carsten Teunissen

The home visit format seems to be fun and enjoyable for many people besides us, which is why we are happy to expand this format further. This time we went to Paul and Carsten Teunissen in Wuppertal. You'll get the full dose of aquaristics in two videos, one without, one with a filter.

New products: All-For-Reef - Mineral supply for the entry into marine aquaristics

Tropic Marin® ALL-FOR-REEF is an easy-to-use, highly concentrated all-round solution for the supply of all important minerals and trace elements in newly established and averagely stocked reef aquariums.

The DELTEC skimmer model 1000i

In addition to the actual operation of the Deltec 1000i, we go into the volume, take the 1000i completely apart for pump cleaning and show the settings on the device. The whole thing is shown on video, of course.

Press release: The new Maxspect RSX NANO 50W LED

Small aquariums can finally be equipped with an LED luminaire that can be controlled like its big sisters. The LED is well suited for nano aquariums up to 50 cm illumination.

A visit to Kölle Zoo Saarbrücken

We already visited many Kölle Zoo shops in Germany in 2016 and 2017. And now our road trip in terms of "big pet stores" continues. This time we were at the Kölle Zoo branch in Saarbrücken. It is currently the last new Kölle Zoo. You can see what awaited us there in the video. You can also find the whole video, i.e. beyond the seawater department, on the Kölle Zoo YouTube account. Have fun with it.

How a marine aquarium is created Part 27: Rust in the aquarium

After 6 months of operation, we take a closer look at the aquarium and the LEDs with their mounting brackets. After all, the mounting brackets come into almost direct contact with water. So rust is already an issue here, but that was to be expected. Aquaristik Singer has an idea for those who do not want to hang their LEDs.

A visit to Kölle Zoo Heidelberg

We already visited many Kölle Zoo shops in Germany in 2016 and 2017. And now our road trip in terms of "big pet stores" continues. This time we were at the Kölle Zoo branch in Heidelberg. You can see what awaited us there in the video. You can also find the whole video, i.e. beyond the seawater department, on the Kölle Zoo YouTube account. Have fun with it.

Glamorca RO1 - the somewhat different reverse osmosis system

Already presented at Interzoo 2018 by the distributor aquariOOm, it is now available on the market. Small, fine and has it all with up to 380 litres of output per day. A really well thought-out system for producing ultra-pure water for marine aquariums. Here you can find all the key data on the GLAMORCA reverse osmosis system, which is being launched on the market for 299.90 euros.

The 735 litre LPS seawater aquarium from Daniel Heups in Hilden, Germany

Every now and then, there were pictures of Daniel's pelvis in the Facebook groups. We were immediately captivated by these. An LPS dream aquarium. Just to give you a few figures.... 52 Scolymias, Trachys, Lobos... all special animals that Daniel keeps. Just watch the video. We wish you a lot of fun.

The Multi-Standard and the NP-Standard - from Tropic Marin

introduced at Interzo 2018, now available everywhere. The Multi Standard - a reference solution for checking test kits (Ca, Mg, KH, K+) and the NP Standard - a reference solution for checking test kits (NO3, PO4) both from Tropic Marin.

How a marine aquarium is created Part 26: Goodbye glass lice?

You can hardly believe it. After a few weeks now and the increasingly intensive emergence and growth of glass lice, I treated the large glass lice one last time with Aiptacap from Aquamedic. Well, what didn't work the first time seems to work now. The glass lice are gone, but the problem with the flatworms is getting worse.

The Aquatronica TOUCH CONTROLLER SYSTEM

A few days ago we received a very big package, namely the Aquatronica aquarium computer. Just to mention a few data: ... measures and controls the water level, measures and controls the temperature, measures PH, Redox and conductivity. Of course, it can also report faults, either via email or via an additional SMS module. There is a huge range of accessories such as pump controls, e.g. Tunze, etc., etc. We will now unpack the device and take a look at it. There will then be a comprehensive video about it.

The BONBON seawater aquarium by Kai Friedrich and the Reefloat

Kai Friedrich comes from Mannheim and is a marine aquarist with heart and soul. He is particularly fond of the large polyps. We finally managed to film the extremely colourful aquarium (which wasn't easy at all). A few days before our visit, the Reefloat arrived, which Immo Gerber introduced to us a long time ago. Here we were also allowed to film a little bit. The Reefloat will certainly divide opinion. Ultimately, it is an almost fully automated and gentle water change by means of a device.

How a marine aquarium is created Part 25: Fighting the glass lice

Unfortunately, the first action to destroy the glass lice did not really lead to success. Here we show you how to continue. This time the subject is Wurdemanni shrimps and a small nudibranch called Berghia, which likes glass lice.

How a seawater aquarium is created Part 24: Glass lice and turbellariae

Despite using dead rock, we now have the first glass lice in the aquarium after about 4 months (as of November). In addition, there are a few planaria, although the correct name is turbellaria. They were probably brought in with bought offshoots. In spite of all efforts to examine the corals, some of them managed to establish themselves in the 400 litre tank. We show how to deal with them, but also name animal enemies and their advantages and disadvantages.

The new pendix LED luminaire from Daytime

Announced at Fisch & Reptil by Dirk Sturm, the new pendix LED luminaire from daytime is already available. This is an ingenious modular LED system for open aquariums. We took a look at it at Megazoo Düsseldorf together with Horst Roguschke and of course shot a video about it.
