Download:A steady stream of new technologies (PDF file)Versatile UV clarifierThe new "UV-C-System 5 W" water clarifier from Sera is designed for aquariums of up to 500 litres. It clarifies both fresh water and saltwater and can be operated with a feed pump or an external filter. The ultra-violet light eliminates floating algae and bacterial cloudiness, ensuring crystal-clear water. The clarifier is also effective against spores of other algae, thereby reducing their spread. In addition, the pathogen concentration in the aqua­rium is reduced, minimising the risk of infectious diseases. Sera recommends connection to a feed pump (e.g. "sera P 1200") or an external filter (e.g. "sera fil bioactive 130").www.sera.deNew illuminationAll premium Juwel aquariums are now available with 4-tube illumination utilising modern, powerful "T-5" technology. This is a brand new feature for the models "Rio 300" and "Rio 400" as well as for the "Trigon 350" and the "Vision 450". This standard equipment is designed to raise these models to a unique lighting supply level. The length of the tubes is coordinated to the size of the aquarium, offering excellent brightness for the plants, the fish and the fish-keeper.www.juwel-aquarium.deSmall and attractiveAquatlantis has just launched its newest compact model "Mini-cub".
