This line of preformed ponds has been designed to be easy to unfold. Due to the flexibility of the rubber compound and the rigidity of the plastic compound, the ponds are also more resistant to breakage and wear while remaining very flexible. The ponds can withstand temperatures from -18° C to +40° C. The box contains all the components required to install the pond professionally: the pond shell, the streamlet, the pump with tubes and nozzles for water plays and a submersible light provided with three coloured lenses and all the necessary accessories and instructions. The kits are available in four different sizes.www.sicce.comNew-look foodThe German company IPH Group has given a new look to "Hakito", its premium food line for pond fish.
