FAQs
What type of fish are best suited for the BiOrb LIFE 45L?
This aquarium is best suited for small, peaceful freshwater fish species that do not require a large swimming space. Examples include neon tetras, guppies, platies, endler's livebearers, and small schooling fish. A single betta fish can also be kept, provided the water is kept calm.
How often should I perform water changes?
For optimal health, perform a partial water change of 10-20% weekly or bi-weekly. The exact frequency depends on the fish stocking level and the efficiency of your biological filtration.
How do I clean the biological filter?
The biological filter media should only be rinsed gently in used tank water (water removed during a water change) to preserve the beneficial bacteria colonies. Avoid using tap water, as chlorine can kill these essential bacteria.
What is the lifespan of the LED lights?
The energy-efficient LED lighting system is rated for a lifespan of up to 50,000 hours, offering long-term illumination for your aquarium.
Can I use the remote control from a distance?
The remote control has a typical operating range for household use. Ensure there are no significant obstructions between the remote and the light receiver on the aquarium for best performance.
What is the weight of the aquarium when full?
When fully filled with water and decorations, the BiOrb LIFE 45L weighs approximately 50kg.
Does this aquarium come with a heater?
The standard BiOrb LIFE 45L package includes filtration and lighting. A separate aquarium heater may be required depending on your chosen fish species and the ambient room temperature. Please check the specific needs of your fish.
Troubleshooting
Aquarium water is cloudy
This can be due to a new tank cycle, overfeeding, or overstocking. Ensure the biological filter is running correctly and consider performing a partial water change. Reduce feeding if excessive.
Fish appear lethargic or stressed
Check water parameters (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, pH) using a test kit. Ensure the air pump is functioning correctly and the water is adequately aerated. Perform a partial water change if parameters are poor.
LED lights are not working
Check the power connection to the light unit and the remote control's battery. Ensure the remote is within range and try cycling through the colours and functions.
Filter is making unusual noise
Ensure the filter unit is properly seated and all connections are secure. Check the air pump and air stone for blockages or damage.
