baby biOrb Aquarium Kit with Light

• Compact size
• Perfect for small spaces
• Crystal clear acrylic that is 10 times stronger than glass

Best suited for one goldfish....:
I previously owned the larger BiOrb, but decided to downsize. The baby BiOrb is described on websites as being good for Betas, but my Beta hated it, there was too much aeration, water turbulence etc from the filter. So I gave the Beta away and moved my goldfish from the larger BiOrb to the Baby BiOrb and my goldfish is happy, plus the Beta is happy to be in his stagnant little bowl. Tips: leave half the water in there when you change it, or else your fish has lots of poor health reactions to totally clean water. Don't wash it with anything like Clorox Cleanup, you will kill your fish as it would be absorbed into the plastic. Use plastic plants if you don't want to continually fight algae. My Baby BiOrb is on the kitchen counter and with the light on at night it looks very dramatic!

Misleading:
I bought this tank at a great deal and was very pleased with how it functioned not to mention its beautiful appearance. After some research however, I found that, even though it is advertised as a "the new goldfish bowl" it is entirely too small for even one fancy goldfish. Not only do I have to change the water everyother day, but my poor goldfish will need an upgrade soon. So yeah, do your research before you buy (unlike me) Any SINGLE goldfish needs a 16 gallon tank minimum, 20 being the ideal. This is due to their waste production and scale (ALL goldfish grow up to 6-8 inches) The saying that they grow to the size of the bowl is a myth. Your fish will merely suffer from stunted growth and die very prematurely. This bowl is only sutable for guppies or minnows- don't be fooled by the pictures!!!!!!

My fish love it!:
This aquarium came with everything to set it up. I was a very easy setup. It is streamline and looks great on my desk. I currently have 3 goldfish in it, and they seem very happy swimming in their bi-Orb.
