JBL ProFlora Stand for CO2

The JBL ProFlora base serves CO2 storage bottles with 500g for optimal installation and prevents accidental falling over.

Unlike the compressed air bottles of the divers, CO2 bottles have to be operated vertically because the CO2 gas becomes liquid under pressure. Only when the bottle is standing does the liquid CO2 not reach the valve. Therefore, the JBL CO2 bottles either have a "built-in" stand or the bottle is placed in this stand, which is available separately. The JBL ProFlora stand is suitable for the operation of CO2 storage bottles with a diameter of up to 60mm and does not require any drilling.

CO2 in the aquarium
The correct amount of CO2 in the water is of the utmost importance for the aquarium plants. The plants use carbon dioxide as a nutrient, trace elements and thus as a growth promoter for full development. Plants use the CO2 for photosynthesis and thereby supply the water with vital oxygen. They prevent algae growth, remove pollutants, offer hiding places and reduce pathogens.

CO2 is the main food that all aquarium plants need in order to grow healthy and vigorously. Healthy plants can be equated with reduced algae production since the food is deprived of them due to the improved growth of the plants. To develop the plant, the following needs should be met: Light as an energy source for photosynthesis CO2, nutrients and trace elements as growth promoters. JBL plant fertilisers supply the plants with all the main nutrients and essential trace elements via the water. This gives the plants all the nutrients they need to be absorbed through the leaves and roots.

However, CO2 offers even more advantages for the aquarium: Most of the well-kept fish come from slightly acidic waters and are sensitive to fluctuating water values. CO2 is able to slightly acidify the aquarium water and stabilise water values. The pH value in the aquarium, which is usually too high anyway, is reduced to a level appropriate for plants and fish and supplies the plants with their main nutrient.
