Grain-free food for cats Interquell offers two grain-free products in its “Supreme” range for cats. “Happy Cat Fit & Well Junior Grain-Free” and “Happy Cat Fit & Well Adult Grain-Free” are tasty, highly digestible recipes containing poultry, gluten-free potato and Yucca Shidigera, according to the company. To counter food allergies or intolerances, the recipes contain only potatoes as a source of carbohydrate. Fish has also been deliberately dispensed with as a source of animal protein. The two grain-free varieties come in three pack sizes from 300 g to 4 kg. www.happycat.de Help for breeders The “Reptibator” from Zoo Med is a digital egg incubator, controlled by a pulse proportional thermostat that will keep the incubator temperature within a precise programmed range.

Plant material, including spirulina, is a source of natural carotenoids, which enhance colouring. The second new product is a high-protein, sinking granule for predatory bottom feeders (carnivores). The low carbohydrate content protects carnivorous fish from fatty degeneration of internal organs. Both products are packed in new transparent tins with a UV filter, enabling the client to see the food without having to open the container and compromise the safety of the food and its nutrients. www.tropical.pl Filter technology debut Söll presents two filters for garden ponds, which it says are a new departure for the company. The filters have a long service life, require little maintenance and are easy to handle. The material is much more effective than other products, making it possible to use not only smaller filters but also less powerful pumps. “Titan” and “Thor” combine…
