It's been another 30 months since we started the small 400 litre tank in summer 2018. We are actually quite satisfied at the moment. But take a look for yourself. How else could it be documented than in a video. We have included a lot of slow-motion footage and think that it goes down quite well?
Now that's an interesting and useful device :-) An INOVATION-NEW! A simple & effective dirt vacuum cleaner! Make short work of your dirty sump or aquarium without substrate, according to the manufacturer.
We have now replaced our skimmer with the new Maxspect-Jump SK400, which is suitable for aquariums from 400 to 1000 litres, and as usual we have recorded our usual impressions in a video. How can it be cleaned? How loud is it? What is the result? But see for yourself in the article and video.
The Kessil® AP9X LED is a 185 Watt surface luminaire for saltwater aquariums with touch and WiFi control as well as digital K-Link control. It provides excellent coral growth and colouration thanks to its variable spectrum and outstanding coverage. It also features an innovative thermal management system with side exhaust vents. At the same time, the newly designed heat sink and an efficient vortex fan reduce the accumulation of dust and debris, which prolongs service life and increases efficiency. Important: KESSIL DOES NOT SUPPLY INTERNATIONAL (NON-US) DEALERS UNTIL THE END OF THE YEAR!
A memorable year with personal highs but also one or two limitations is coming to an end. We wish you all happy holidays with a little video :-) Please stay healthy!
In the past few years, we have visited many Kölle Zoo shops in Germany. And now our road trip in terms of "big pet stores" continues. This time we were at the Kölle Zoo branch in Esslingen. It is currently the newest Kölle Zoo of the 16 German and 5 Austrian branches. You can see what awaited us there in the video. You will soon be able to watch the whole video about the seawater department on the Kölle Zoo YouTube account. Have fun with it.
Every year in December there is a great promotion with 20% discount on products and corals from Korallenzucht.de. This year is no exception. Read more in the article.
The new Maxspect MJ-GF4K cross-flow pump has been installed in the pool for a few days now. Of course, we shot a video of it.
In part 44, we now have some pretty big changes coming up in the small AquaMedic Armatus 400. We want to change the RFP, the flow pumps, the skimmer and the light. As this is quite a lot, it will take a few weeks. There is also a summary after 25 months of operation.
In February we visited Markus Gerhardus in Mudersbach near Siegen. He operates his seawater systems completely differently from other competitors (without skimming) and is very successful. Since you had so many questions, we have now produced a second video in which Markus answers all your questions. Have fun with one hour of input.
It was that time again. A special house visit was on the agenda. Dominik Laux has a 2000-litre reef aquarium and his love is above all for fish. He has some great and rare species in his 250 cm long reef. You can find out more in the video
There are things that really make life easier for us aquarists. These undoubtedly include the products I show in the video. For example, the food pipe and a food pipette from Aqua Medic. Also the algae clips and the food egg by Waldemar Issak from 3DundMeer. As we mention products and companies by name, we have to mark the article as advertising. We received the products from Aquamedic and Waldemar Issak free of charge. They have no influence on the rating in the video.
After almost 2 years, thread algae suddenly appeared - despite good values. This is probably a type of Derbesia algae. It was interesting for me to see how the products Vibrant and Flux RX behaved. Due to the existing phophate deficiency, we decided not to continue using Vibrant. Please be sure to follow the instructions for use. Since we are recommending products here, I have to call this advertising. Both products were bought by ourselves.
We care for really great and often expensive animals. And most of them grow close to our hearts. A power failure, if it lasts longer, is a real disaster and can cost the animals their lives. Fortunately, there are also solutions for this from various companies, in addition to the well-known UPS devices from the electronics sector. As we are naming products, we have to mark this as advertising. The Jebao backup battery was regularly purchased by us.
It was that time again and there was a great seawater aquarium to visit. There is probably no better documented seawater tank than Martin's, which he maintains in great detail on his personal blog. We were very happy to be allowed to shoot there. Have fun with the 4,500-litre seawater facility.
