I keep finding empty snail shells, often even 2 a day. By chance I saw the culprit, or rather the culprits. I didn't exactly expect that! But see for yourself in the video. Please forgive me, it was made with a very low light source. But I think you can see enough. Some will be surprised :-(
Now it has happened to us. Despite all my caution, I wasn't paying attention. One of our green storage containers simply overflowed! We were really lucky that not much happened and that it was only a few litres of water. Because it's all too easy to get damaged, no matter whether it's the aquarium (wooden cabinet that gets wet) or even other furniture that's nearby. So the following product comes just in time to prevent just such things. We report on the Auto Aqua Smart ASOV system, which prevents such things electronically.
I can still remember how we were with Theo in Belgium at the end of 2017 and were able to take pictures under blue light for the first time with a film. That was a huge difference. At Interzoo in May 2018, the first clip filter came onto the market. This came from D-D Solution. In December 2018, the ARKA MY Reef Studio came out, which is quite similar, but was offered at a slightly lower price.
In July 2019, the new Reeflight LED models will be on the market, in the lengths 60cm, 90cm, 120cm and 150 cm. We were at the wholesaler Aquaperfekt and made a video about it. Because there have been some changes.
The adsorbers have to be changed or the filter cleaned? You squeeze yourself into the technical tank and often have to heave out the entire filter with pump, each time being careful not to bump into anything so as not to damage the filter or tear off the pump, excess water dripping onto the floor, then painstakingly undoing screw connections, making sure that no dirt gets into the thread, and and and.....for many aquarists this has been a horror for years, considering that these activities often have to be repeated in a short time. - We have tested the Magnetic Filter! So everything in the video :-)
At the beginning of July, the holiday periods of the federal states are slowly beginning. This can sometimes be a headache, especially for newcomers. We have thought about this and put it together in a video. Maybe some of you will find the right tip in it. Have fun reading.
Presented at Interzoo 2018 and widely acclaimed, the Reebot is now actually available. A computer for the automated measurement of various water parameters in marine aquariums. Immo Gerber took a look at the Reefbot and reports on it in this article. As a treat, there is a complete view of the software as a video.
Kai Friedrich, a friend of ours, called one day and asked me if we would like to do a report on the development of a Dreambox. What a question, we wouldn't let something like that pass us by. So we went to Royal Exklusiv. There we met a very nice newbie in the MW scene who had just picked up his Dreambox. But we will come to Stephan, the newbie in the hobby, separately. That will be really funny.
The import ban from Indonesia is still in place. Since May 2018, no more corals have been coming from there and almost all of them are coming via Australia. This reduces the species enormously. What is the trade doing now with regard to offspring corals? We went to Aquapferkt, a wholesaler, and took a look at their breeding efforts. The whole thing as usual via video.
We visited Klaus Jansen in Lohmar and took the opportunity to film his basement tank extensively. It holds 1,500 litres and has become a very beautiful piece of reef in only 5 months. We hope you like the video!
T5 or LED? Or a hybrid? In other words, a mixture of both? We took a closer look at the hybrid luminaire from Pacific Sun, not only at the luminaire and the reflectors, but also at the software that controls the luminaire. Enjoy the video and the photos :-)
Ever since Interzoo 2018, we have been planning to visit Aqua Türkis in Waldshut. Since it's not exactly around the corner, we took advantage of a visit to an aquarist on Lake Constance to take a look at Ulas. Aqua Türkis in particular always shines with great and colourful photos of corals. Of course, we also made a video. You can find all this in the article.
Catch bowl, the catching ladle for easy and gentle removal of fish and invertebrates from the aquarium.
The CalcFeeders are a family of revolutionary and innovative calcium reactors of the latest generation. They contain optical sensors to measure the amount of carbon dioxide in the reactor. More info and a detailed video presentation in the article.
The 31st episode of our Aqua Medic Armatus is about a little tip. Namely, replacing the filter socks with something else. The innovation is also a little quieter.
