Hay produced in South Africa are traditionally sun-dried whilst leading hay manufacturers such as Newhay and Bunny Nature are using the latest developments in technology to produce high quality feeding hay.
Newhay timothy hay has earned the well-deserved reputation as the gold standard for feeding rabbits, guinea pigs and chinchillas. After all, it’s high in fiber with the perfect ratio of nutrients for maintenance. Newhay timothy hay boasts a protein content of 12% compared to regular timothy hay (7% protein) from other producers. Timothy is also not the only grass hay on the block.
Bunny Nature meadow hay from nature conservation areas in Germany are also becoming very popular to feed small pets in South Africa because it contains a wide diversity of plants. Even the best drying method cannot significantly improve hay quality if the basis is not right.
A good meadow with grasses, clover and meadow herbs is, in addition to the optimal cutting time, t.. [More]

Pellets are a complementary addition to your rabbit, guinea pig or chinchilla's diet and can be a source of nutrition when fed correctly. Originally, pellets were developed as a cheap way to feed livestock and these earlier foods tended to be high in fat content and lacked the high quality nutrition needed to support long term health and wellbeing.
However, good-quality, high-fibre pellet diets are now more widely available. They often contain a base of grass (10-15%) with additional herbs and are supplemented with vitamins and minerals. Given properly, and in the correct amounts, high-quality pellets offer a variety of vitamins and minerals that can support good health. They should be provided as part of a balanced diet.
Bunny Nature, a manufacturer in Germany, makes pellets for small animals with unique recipe that contains an even higher content of grass, plants and herbs (50-60%) that originate from your pet's natural habitat.
Rabbits and guinea pigs need.. [More]

In the food and beverage industry, several secret recipes have been passed down and unchanged for generations such as KFC's original recipe and Coca-Cola's formula. These iconic brands feature the mystique of having a unique list of ingredients that make magic for their products.
The formulation of TOP's Parrot Food's organic pellets also features a unique list of ingredients that are different than any other pellet on the market. And since they were developed in 2003 by avian nutritionists, including Dr. Alicia McWatters, they have been unchanged and true to the original recipe. TOPs get inquiries from time to time asking if they have changed their formula, and they are proud to say “no,” their ingredients are the same as always.

After extensive research and development, NT Labs are proud to announce the arrival of their new and improved marine range. New products are joining the range, and a new stylish design has been introduced.
Their in-house marketing team have carefully studied the marine industry and redesigned the packaging to give it a fresh new look. With its bright, enticing imagery and easy to understand icons we are sure the range will appeal to all marine and reef keepers. In addition to this fresh new look, their in-house biologists have also been busy formulating two new products.
All marine keepers will be well aware of the pesky Aiptasia which can plague their reef aquarium. Aiptasia are polyp-like creatures found in marine aquariums usually introduced with corals or live rock. They can harm corals by outcompeting them for space and food as well as looking unsightly. NT Labs are pleased to be introducing Marine Anti-Aiptasia which is a contact solution to eradic.. [More]

Rossmont, as you may know, is the company behind the revolutionary, controllable, AC powered wave pump called Mover. The Rossmont Riser and Riser RX are radical new pumps which on the surface looks pretty standard-issue, but beneath the skin hides some exciting new technology.
The models available are Rossmont Riser R3200, RX5000 and RX6600 which are great standalone AC pumps with a decent flow curves. What is the difference between an AC and DC pump? What’s the advantage of one over another?
Many people are looking for a DC pump nowadays for its novelty and control features. However, an AC pump is more reliable because there is no power supply that can fail. The Rossmont AC pump is plugged directly into the wall outlet and it will operate normally at a fixed flow rate.
The main feature of these pumps are that if you use it as “stand-alone” it’s a standard AC pump, but if you plug into the Rossmont Waver controller it becomes an in.. [More]

A saltwater aquarium is often the pinnacle of every fish keepers’ dreams. The fascinating array of colours and behaviours, coupled with unique invertebrates and corals, can create a beautiful showpiece in any home. Marine aquariums are often accompanied with the preconception that they are harder to keep than freshwater setups. While marine fish are a little less tolerant of poor water quality, the same basic principles of care and maintenance apply to both.
Choosing the Marine Aquarium - Size, Shape & Positioning
Marine aquariums can come in an array of shapes and sizes. A trip to your local specialist marine retailer will give you the chance to see the latest aquariums the hobby has to offer. A traditional marine setup would consist of an aquarium on a cabinet containing another aquarium inside (the sump filter). This modular filtration system suits marines as it allows most of the equipment to be hidden underneath the main aquarium. The water will drain f.. [More]

Do you know what the term “Internet of things” means? It is a concept according to which clearly identifiable objects can directly or indirectly collect, process or exchange data by means of the KNX smart electrical installation or a computer network.

The Kamoer X1 is a wirelessly controlled single channel dosing pump and the natural evolution of what these standalone dosers should be. Without any button, screen or any kind of physical way to interface with the a Kamoer X1 pump, all interactions are performed through the Kamoer bluetooth app.
The pump itself is hardly more than a small box with a tiny peristaltic pump head, an input for power, a power output for daisy chaining multiple pumps, and just one single indicator LED to display connection status. The quick-disconnect peristaltic pump head is a must for keeping dosing pumps like these in working order so it will be a great convenience for user of the Kamoer X1.
The world of reef aquarium products has reached a level of level of refinement across many different devices but usually the software and wireless connection is the part that suffers. Thankfully, we are happy to report that the Kamoer X1 connected to the app near instantaneously and the app is streaml.. [More]
