Product Information
Full details
The SuperFish ORBIQ 11 Aquarium is a sleek, 11-litre cylindrical tank designed for hobbyists looking for a modern, compact display for small aquatic setups. Featuring 360-degree views, energy-efficient LED lighting, and a sophisticated bamboo base, it provides an elegant focal point for offices or home surfaces, though its small capacity makes it best suited for nano-aquascaping or single-betta environments rather than large fish communities.

FAQs
How many fish can I keep in the ORBIQ 11?
Due to its 11-litre capacity, it is recommended for a single betta fish or a small group of freshwater shrimp to maintain a healthy ecosystem.
Can I use this aquarium for saltwater fish?
This tank is primarily designed for freshwater setups and is not suitable for saltwater marine environments.
How often should I change the filter cartridge?
It is recommended to replace the activated carbon cartridge every 4 to 6 weeks to ensure water clarity.
Is the lighting dimmable?
The lighting features a touch-control interface, but its primary function is an atmospheric on/off glow.
Does the tank include a heater?
The ORBIQ 11 does not come with a heater. If you are keeping tropical fish, you may need to purchase a small, compatible aquarium heater separately.
How do I clean the curved glass?
Use a soft, lint-free cloth or a specifically designed magnetic cleaner for curved tanks to avoid scratching.
Troubleshooting
The filter pump is making a rattling noise.
Check the pump housing for debris or air pockets. Ensure the impeller is properly seated and clean.
LED light is not turning on.
Verify the power adapter is securely connected and that the power outlet is functioning properly.
Water appears cloudy.
This may indicate a bacterial bloom or overfeeding. Reduce feeding amounts and check the condition of the activated carbon media.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Placement: Ensure the bamboo base is positioned on a flat, stable surface that can support the weight of 11 litres of water plus decorations.
- Filtration Setup: Rinse the ceramic media and activated carbon cartridge under tap water before installing them into the pump housing.
- Water Conditioning: Always treat tap water with a water conditioner before filling the tank to remove chlorine and heavy metals.
- Maintenance: Perform a 10-15% water change weekly. Check the filter media monthly; rinse ceramic media in removed tank water (not tap water) to preserve beneficial bacteria. Replace the activated carbon cartridge every 4-6 weeks for optimal filtration.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, non-abrasive sponge to clean the curved glass to avoid scratching the surface.
