Features

  • THE PERFECT AQUARIUM FOR SMALL SPACES The CLASSIC aquarium's design is inspired by the simple beauty of a classic fishbowl, a 360-degree view so you can admire all aspects of your biOrb. The 8-gallon (30 L) tank's size is ideal for tabletop display.
  • DURABLE CONSTRUCTION biOrb aquariums are made from acrylic, which is 10 times stronger, 50% lighter, and 23% clearer than ordinary glass aquariums. Acrylic is also a good insulator, so you don't lose as much heat as you would with a glass aquarium.
  • PATENTED FILTRATION SYSTEM IS EASY TO MAINTAIN All biOrb aquariums have a true 5-stage filtration system including biological, mechanical, chemical, water stabilization and oxygenation that keeps it clean. The filter is conveniently located at the bottom of the aquarium, and the ceramic media surrounding it promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria.
  • VIBRANT, MOOD-ENHANCING LIGHTING Use the included remote control to select one of the 16 preset colors, fade through the entire spectrum of colors, and control the brightness of the LED lights. You can also set automatic 8-, 10-, 12- or 14-hour day and night cycles for a more natural scene for your aquarium inhabitants. This natural cycle helps cut down on algae blooms, which benefits fish health, water quality, and cuts down on routine maintenance.
  • EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO GET STARTED, JUST ADD DECOR Includes a 8-gallon (30 L) acrylic aquarium, multi-colored LED lighting with remote, a new quiet air pump, a low-voltage 12V transformer, filter, air stone, ceramic media, starter water treatments, and instructions. Just add decorations! Also includes a 2-year warranty.

Description

These breathtaking underwater worlds add a sense of joy and wonder to your home. With chic and minimalist design, a biOrb CLASSIC 30 MCR aquarium makes it effortless for you to elevate any space. This 8-Gallon acrylic aquarium is inspired by the simple beauty of a classic fishbowl, a 360-degree view so you can admire all aspects of your biOrb. This biOrb CLASSIC has a bold black lid and base that create a stylish finished look to this unique aquarium. Everything you need to start your new hobby is included: low voltage pump, LED Multi-color Remote-controlled (MCR) lighting, filtration, and manual. All biOrb aquariums are made from acrylic, which is 10 times stronger and 23% clearer than glass. Acrylic is also a good insulator, so you don't lose as much heat as you would with a glass aquarium. The MCR light will change how you experience biOrb. Choose from 16 preset colors and control the brightness of the light. You can even set an automatic day and night light cycle. There's a setting to suit every mood and add to your sense of well-being. The 5-step Filtration ensures clear, healthy water with biological, mechanical and chemical filtration, water stabilization and oxygenation. Unlike most aquariums, a biOrb'­s filter is fitted at the bottom of the aquarium, because fish waste sinks. The ceramic media that surrounds the filter provides a large surface area for beneficial bacteria. With quick and easy set-up, you'­ll soon be setting your creativity free and decorating your biOrb with the endless combinations of biOrb aquarium decorations (sold separately). Additionally, biOrb aquariums are designed for easy maintenance and easy access to feed your fish. Depending on your choice of fish species, you may only need around 15 minutes of maintenance per month using the biOrb Service Kit (sold separately). The aquarium is backed by a 2-year warranty. Enjoy the priceless gift of nature's wonder in your home with biOrb.

  • Worth the Money - Long As You Set It Up Right
Style: Series 7 Color: Black with LED Lighting Size: 8 Gallon
The media could not be loaded. Meets every expectation! Most beautiful aquarium I've ever owned! NOTE - I have 20+ years experience keeping fish. But after reading so many negative comments (most of which are on the silver MCR-light version), just to make sure, I talked with my local fish store equipment experts to make sure the little guys in my current tank would transition ok to this new tank, before I even bought it. Here's my advice: Regardless, buy the air stream cap!! It's only $2, & it will make sure nobody gets stuck in that tube! (See newer pic with assassin snail). -If this is a brand new aquarium for you, I would set it up according to the instructions. *Yes the air pump will be loud if it's right next to the surface the tank is on, as it vibrates. I recommend putting the BiOrb on a cabinet/stand with a drawer/shelf inside that you can put the air pump in (with a hole in the back for the tube to connect through). *Keep in mind most tropical fish need a heater (yes the tank lid has space for its chord), so I would buy one. If you don't want to buy any decor not sold by BiOrb (like live plants & wood), you'll need to start slowly with your fish. I would add any bottom feeders (shrimp, snails, ottos) on the 1st day that you can add fish, & NOTHING else. (BiOrb DOES NOT recommend corys with their pebbles just FYI.) Wait another 2-3 more days, then add your other fish. Stay away from micro breeds & any digging breeds (again due to their pebbles) and don't overload the tank. The general rule is 1 inch of fish = 1 gallon of water. This model is an 8-gal tank, so no more than 8 fish total. Again, talking with your fish store expert will help. If everyone's happy in 8 months, you can be more flexible with this. -If you are transitioning fish from an old tank to this one, this will work great. Don't use the fake pebbles that come with the tank if you're fish are smaller than 2". These pebbles are large & oddly shaped (& this is why small fish get stuck in the filter). Use standard, large aquarium gravel, or river rocks as I have here. The goal is to cover the filter enough that no one will get caught inside, but there will still be flow. Sand is a no-no as it will get stuck in the filter. If you use substrate, you'll want to use it in combination with something else, & position it away from the filter. You might need a bottom feeder fish if you don't have any, &/or don't want to clean the tank with a gravel vac as the filter will work slightly slower with smaller gravel just FYI. As my picture shows, I've already moved all my rocks, wood & live plants to the new tank right away. I recommend this (your fish will be fine without decor for the 3-day period the BiOrb needs lol). This will establish the healthy biome faster, & prevent ammonia spikes when the fish are moved over. If you have a planted aquarium, I would move some, but not all, of that so neither tank's biome gets messed up. Also, I'm not using the water bio booster (that comes with) because I have live stuff already in the tank, again to prevent ammonia spikes. And I have my own water conditioner my fish like, so I'm also not using the one that comes with it. Hope this calms some nerves! This really is a beautiful aquarium, my fish will love it!! ------- Update 2/23: Still love, love, love this aquarium! It took a few months to get the ideal balance between fish, decor placement, & cleaning (this is an 8 gallon, my previous tank size for over a decade was 5 & a completely different shape/setup)... But I expected that. Currently it has: Cardinals, a couple danios & platies, a licorice gourami, that snail, & two amano shrimp (one of which is preggers, so yeah everyone is pretty happy lol). ... show more

  • Best Aquarium Ever!
Style: Series 7 Color: Silver with LED Lighting Size: 8 Gallon
I have had many typical fish tanks over the years and wanted something different this time around. I REALLY like the look and ease of upkeep with this. The bubbler pump is really quiet too. Highly recommend!

  • Overall this is a nice aquarium.
Style: 16 Gallon Color: Silver with LED Lighting Size: 16 Gallon
Overall this is a nice aquarium. Its a nice size without a very big footprint (I have the 16 gallon). I placed mine on a side table in the living room. The shape and look of the biorb is beautiful. The curved shape creates more visual interest when gazing into the aquarium due to the magnification effect and viewing angels. As other reviewers have mentioned it seems like box doesn't come with enough of the ceramic substrate media. You will likely need more plus your own rocks for decorating. Since both the light and air pump plug in to the same power pack/outlet it makes this impossible to put the light on a timer without also shutting off the air pump. The light that comes with the 16 gallon and smaller biorbs simply has an on and off switch. The largest size Biorb (28 gallon) does come with a different light that has an integrated timer. This same light can be purchased separately and used on any biorb. The company should include the integrated timer light with all biorbs since out of the box the customer cannot even use their own timer. Luckily, I had a spare air pump I am now using with my biorb. Doing this does allow me to use an outlet timer with the light since the air pump plugs in separately. Using your own air pump has the added bonus of being more powerful of the one included. This was very easy to set up. The air line is already in place and comes out the back of the bottom. Just place in the filter and bubble tube, fill with washed substrate media, decorations then water. Plug in your air pump and light. You should let this sit for at least a day before you put in any fish. Also, do not overstock these aquariums. I'm appalled by the number of fish I see that some people put in these. ... show more

  • Our 10yr old son is VERY disappointed and heartbroken
Style: Series 7 Color: Silver with LED Lighting Size: 8 Gallon
We bought this aquarium for our son as a Christmas gift. He was so excited to open it up and start the process of getting it ready for some fish. We followed the instructions to a T and waited the allotted time before getting 3 small guppies. After the first night, we woke up to cloudy water, which we thought didn’t seem right. We kept a close eye on the fish and they seemed to be ok. Day 2, we woke up to only one guppy and the two deceased guppies are no where to be found. Our son was absolutely devastated. Growing up, I’ve had my fair share of fish and definitely know how to take care of them. Before getting my son this Christmas present, I did quite a bit of research and felt buying the Biorb was going to not only fit in with our decor but be a great experience for him. To watch him run downstairs to say good morning to his new fish, to see the disappointment and defeat on his face when he can only find one fish, is absolutely heartbreaking. My husband and I are extremely disappointed with this purchase, especially with the amount of money we spent, not only on the tank but also the specifically designed Biorb decor. I wish we would have gone to our local pet store and purchased one of their tanks, which would have been cheaper. I will NEVER purchase a Biorb tank again. If only I could rate this product with ZERO stars, I would have. ... show more

The media could not be loaded. I purchased for my autistic son and I’m very impressed with this purchase I ended up ordering live grass also and let it grow in the aquarium for a couple weeks then added the water and let it get adjusted for about a week before purchasing fish but they are doing amazing and the lights are so cool also and come with a remote and you can put them on a timer which I like. The filter and pump system is all easy to put together super easy and was a fun project for us ... show more
