Product information

Underwater gardener
Aquascaping is the term used to describe the technique of designing aquarium landscapes. This is the place for plant compositions, for the reproduction of a landscape above water or for natural biotopes. An aquascaping aquarium contains no or few fish and invertebrates.

Pro Scape Tool straight
Long pincers are especially well suited for the insertion of plants. Straight pincers are often used to insert single plants, whereas several plants can be inserted more easily with curved pincers.

FAQ
How do I maintain my tools properly?

Even the best tools need care. Since salts are present not only in seawater but also in fresh water, it is advisable to rinse the JBL PROSCAPE TOOLS in tap water and dry them after use. This removes adhering salts, which would lead to corrosion of stainless steel in the long run. Similar to the brake discs of a car, flash rust occurs. So if you have forgotten to take care of it, it can easily be removed again. The screw in the centre of the scissors can be maintained with JBL SiliconeSpray.

Why is there rust on my tools?

The ProScape tools are of stainless steel, made in Japan. They are made of a corrosion-resistant and acid proof steel grade. But rusting can’t be completely ruled out. They are extremely resistant to rust. Since numerous salts are to be found in freshwater, the tools need to be dried off after every use. If this doesn’t happen the salts will eat into the material and rust them.

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.
