JBL TV #66 Water changes in the aquarium - tips & tricks and a comparison with nature

Water changes, or more precisely partial water changes, are essential for successful aquarium maintenance. They flush out many substances that accumulate in the aquarium water despite filtering and bring in fresh water. It’s just like airing a room. In addition to renewing part of the water volume, it is also extremely important to remove dirt from the substrate. After all, airing a room doesn’t remove the dirt from our carpet. Only the vacuum cleaner can help here. This video explains why partial water changes in the aquarium are so important.

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).

Web notifications are part of the W3C standard and define an API for end user notifications. A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event, such as a new blog post, outside the context of a website.

JBL GmbH & Co. KG provides this service free of charge, and it is easy to activate or deactivate.
