Review on 🐠 biOrb CLASSIC 15 Aquarium with LED - Silver, 4 Gallon by Alexis Sanchez

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It didn't work on my beta.

I was VERY excited about this tank. It didn't live up to my expectations and I'm sending it back for two main reasons. First, the shape and material of the ball makes it difficult to see your fish (I had a Betta there) unless it is directly in front of you. If he swims backwards he will seem to disappear and you will have to move your head to find him again or wait for him to swim forward. The size and shape of your fish and plants/decoration is distorted. Second, the airflow was too strong for my little guy. I've tried pinching the tube as others have suggested and that has reduced the flow, but the placement (right in the middle) makes it such that the betta is never calm on the surface, even with lighter flow. The entire surface is bubbly. My fish couldn't eat because the food flew to the edge so quickly and it just scared him. All of this to say that this is a beautiful tank with what appears to be a high quality filter, simple in design and would probably be great for another species of fish or a strong, hardy and exciting Betta!

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Vulgarity
