Cleaning and Maintenance
When algae start to spread on the glassware, it is time to clean it. Cleaning is not difficult, but it should be done conscientiously. Afterwards, the glassware will shine like new again.
- Household chlorine cleaner (hygienic cleaner) without fragrances is needed. When working with chlorine bleach, be sure to observe the manufacturer's precautions.
- Put some of the chlorine cleaner into a container and mix it with 50% water. There should be enough of the solution to completely immerse the glassware in it.
- Leave the glassware to soak in the solution for 1-4 hours (depending on how dirty it is).
- Take the glassware out and rinse thoroughly
- Now all dirt should be removed and the glassware should shine again.
There is an extensive how-to (in German) with pictures on our aquascaping wiki Glaswaren reinigen.
Aquasabi
Aquasabi is our own brand, under which we offer high-quality products with a very good price-performance ratio. Carefully selected CO2 diffusers, CO2 bubble counters or lily pipes are just some of the items we sell under this brand and which will surely add to the value und the beauty of any aquascape. For this reason, many aquascapers and planted tank enthusiasts use products by Aquasabi.
Besides the good price-performance ratio, our main focus is on the satisfaction of our customers. This is the reason why our doors are always open for those who need help with our products.
When it comes to special aquatic plants, water plants from Aquasabi are just the thing for you. We offer rarities from our own cultivating tanks or import them specifically. These plants are otherwise hard to come by, and most of them cannot be purchased from other shops. We have high quality standards, which make Aquasabi plants a good choice for aquascapers, planted tank enthusiasts and aquatic plant collectors who want to enrich their tanks with rare aquatic plants. Special mosses, particular stem plants, hard-to-come-by ferns or very rare forms of the genus Bucephalandra are only a few of the plants we are proud to offer.
