BiOrb Classic 105 Aquarium with MCR - 28 Gallon, Silver

First let me say that the aquarium looks great. We purchased the largest biOrn Classic and it’s enormous, but we have gotten a lot of compliments and it suits the fish. We have had the aquarium for about six weeks now and it has worked as advertised. As long as you follow the instructions the water remains clear. The first water replacement was a little laborious due to the fact that the replacement water is to be treated for 24 hours. I had to treat the water in two five gallon buckets and used a third to exchange the water using the biOrb water siphon. Took a little planning but was manageable with one person. Tank had gotten a little cloudy after four weeks and the water change and filter replacement cleared everything up. Very satisfied overall. Also, really like the mcr lighting. We use the different colors as a way to keep track of whether the fish was fed and it looks pretty cool at night all lit up.

The media could not be loaded. Love this biorb fish tankIt is the largest one that Amazon sellsIt is beautifulThe only problem I found was that the disc filter built into the tank is exactly the same size as the smaller tanksThis has created major challenges and upkeep to keepThe tank clean and the fish in pristine conditionI had to buy an external cartridge filter by tetra which has solved my problemIt is wrong to sell this large biorb tank with the same size built in filter as the othersAlso the pump is so tiny cheap and very weak so I also had to buy a much stronger pump to aerate the water and the bubbles actually circulate the water via the built in little filterBut the pump and the filter are definitely not adequate for the largest biorb tankThis is ridiculousEven so I love my biorb and my fish are now nearly 3 years old and have grown triple in sizePlease see video how beautiful this tank isThank you

I LOVE this bowl. The decorations I got from biOrb are beautiful in it and it is super clear. It magnifies what's inside so you really don't need THAT many decorations. Apparently, it works as a giant fire-causing magnifying glass and you shouldn't put it near direct sunlight - it came packaged with several warnings. Be aware that the "filter" seems to function as mostly an aerator. It forces air into the bowl producing the bubbles, I can't see how the sponge filter actually detoxifies anything. I killed 2 betta fish in 3 weeks before I figured that out. You really need to do weekly water changes. So far, my 3rd victim (his name is Vic) has survived 3 weeks on this schedule. The 2nd fish (RIP☝️🙏) died after 2 weeks of no water change. Overall, I love this bowl and get lots of compliments.

GREAT, beautiful, easy to set up fish tank. Had to search for the proper stand to support the large size/weight (the stand sold on Amazon is only for the smaller sizes of the biorb classic). The tank is gorgeous. Everyone in the house loves to see it.

Recurved in the mail yesterday. Light source does not work. Blinks on once when turned on then goes out.

I’m a bit disappointed with this fish tank. The tubing is a pain in the rear, and because of that I can hear the vibration of the air battery. The lid does not latch on and for $10-15 more I wish I would have gotten the other option that had the air tube on the bottom and the color changing lights with hatch lid.

Got the 16gal white. Overall it looks and fancy for its oval shape. Came with small scratches but customer service provide me with a partial refund

The media could not be loaded. Keeping my fish happy and alive, you will need to change the filter pretty regularly. I added a second filter to alleviate the stress on the main filter.
