With such a small and portable body with hidden filtration features, one would not expect this aquarium to keep the water all that clean. However, the biOrb surprised us in that category as well. When it comes to the cons, one gripe that we do have with this aquarium is with the price tag. Sure, the tank itself is sturdy and made with high-quality materials, however for the price that we pay for it, we did expect it to come with some accessories which it didn’t. Does my biOrb AIR need daylight? No, it doesn’t. All the light your plants need to thrive is provided by the biOrb AIR. You can place your biOrb AIR in a dark room where house plants wouldn’t normally thrive and enjoy watching them grow.
Why is my Misting Unit only working occasionally? The misting unit will only mist when the humidity has dropped. The biOrb AIR has been designed to retain humidity and reduce the need for repeated topping up of the misting reservoir. What types of fish can I put in the biOrb? Whilst all coldwater fish are suitable for the biOrb, size should be a consideration. We recommend that the smaller the fish the better, and that you use some of the more hardy varieties such as white cloud minnows that do very well in a cold-water biOrb set-up. Always remember more fish equal more maintenance. The aquarium comes with a five-stage filtration system that cleans the water in five unique and separate stages. Where the standard filters clean the entirety of the water at one go using one single process; this system, on the other hand, divides the load into “biological, mechanical, chemical, water stabilization and oxygenation”. Why has my biOrb gone cloudy? Immediate cloudiness can be a result of insufficient cleaning of the ceramic media; if so it will eventually settle out. Wiping the inside of the bowl with your fingertips will also help. Cloudiness and smelliness, especially over a short period of time, indicates overfeeding or the use of the wrong type of food. All BiOrb fish tanks are fitted with their patented filtration system. The central air tube is at the heart of this system and is not just there to be attractive. This tube performs a vital task. This is known as the biorb filter.Another advantage that acrylic has over glass is that it’s much more scratch resistant. It’s flexible enough to resist bumps and physical damage better, and even if it falls from a greater height and breaks, the pieces are easier to remove than glass as well. The Filtration
Can I add a heater to my biOrb and make it tropical? Yes. All biOrbs can be set up as a tropical aquarium simply by adding a standard aquarium heater. A 50-watt heater should provide plenty of heat. Saw this on YouTube and sounded like a good idea, that is until I had water in tank and decided to take out the filter to adjust. Pushed all the media away from centre, but due to it being round it’s like digging in sand..just keeps rolling down and into the filter hole - I’m already thinking this is a bad idea.... and I’ve only just started cycling the tank(no fish in there yet!)....VIVARIUM What is the job of UVA light and what is the lifetime? UV-A stimulates pigmentation. Lifetime of the light is 20,000 hours Why do I have to keep the biOrb out of sunlight? All aquariums should be kept out of sunlight. There are three main reasons why; Moreover, the LED and the filter share the same electric lighting, and so rushing out to find another extension cord will not be necessary. What about the biOrb Aquarium disappoints?
