PET TRADE WORLD OCTOBER 2009www. pettradeworld. com Aquatic News And Products 4 0 2009 New to the CASCO range of ready-made and fully assembled shop fi ttings is the ECO Small Animal Pen. This pen is designed for displaying rabbits and guinea pigs in store. The new unit is made from glass and aluminium with clean fresh lines for a contemporary open look. The pen consists mainly of glass providing excellent visibility of the animals and provides plenty of space for animals to move around, stretch their legs and show themselves off to their best potential. Each pen is divided into two sections by way of a glass divide. The overall dimensions of the unit are 2000mm wide x 800mm deep by 1200mm high which provides spacious accommodation. The pens are open topped for ventilation, but high enough to stop customers touching the animals. Each section is accessed by way of a lift out mesh door on the front. The pen can be placed against a wall or used back to back to make an impressive island display area. As with the whole ECO range from CASCO, the base area of the pen is available in a choice of silver, black or blue to co- ordinated with other shop fi ttings. These units combine the usual excellent CASCO quality with exceptional value for money, simply because they are fully assembled to high quality specifi cations. The ECO Small Animal Pen is designed to fi t though a standard door way for quick and easy installation. Made by the CASCO group, the ECO units are stock lines and available for fast delivery. Once delivered at the store, these units can be used immediately. The ECO Small Animal Pen costs £ 1,145 or £ 1,290 for the version with the tapered sides. For shop fi tting information, prices and brochures call 08450 60 99 60 or visit www. casco- group. com ¦ CASCO Expand ECO Range ECO Small Animal Pen Zolux Hobby UK Limited have extended their range with 6 brand new aquatic products. Hobby has launched their range of Catfi sh Caves and Prawn Pyramids; clay tubes and tube- turrets that are ideal hideaways and retreats for Catfi sh, invertebrates and other aquaria species. The Dupla range has also introduced Dupla Clear Algae Magnets. Their air- fi lled ball and small weight at their lower end ensures when the inside magnet loses contact with the outside magnet; it slowly sinks to the bottom along the glass but is stabilised so not to penetrate the substrate too deeply. This also ensures that both sides of the magnet will come back into contact easily and the cleaning area of the magnet is kept clean and will not scratch the aquarium glass. Also new is the Bubble Bar Air Diff user, a combination of ornamental lighting and air diff user. With 6 waterproof LED lamps it gives an aquarium a coloured curtain of bubbles for ventilation and animation for your fi sh. It has a low power consumption and can be used for all types of fresh water aquariums. Zolux has also launched two new ornamental ranges, Pebbles and Triple Amphoras. The Pebble Ornaments range is available in 5 styles - ideal for low volume aquariums and with their simple and pure shapes, creates a serene and natural atmosphere. The Triple Amphoras ornaments are available in 3 styles and complete the current Amphoras and Christopher Columbus ranges.

The unit is splash resistant to IP55. Manufacturer Statement - The new ozone generator from Reef Scientifi c is a high quality product at a cost eff ective price. It's manufactured in the UK and more effi cient than other ozonisers utilising corona discharge technology. A very versatile product, capable of being run on mains power anywhere in the world.
