BiOrb One Way Valve

Buy a One Way Valve now!

Another short one for you today, This quick little video is to show you what the One Way Valve looks like.  The one way valve connects to the biorb air pump to prevent water from leaking back into the air pump.  If the air pump is kept below the aquarium and the one way valve fails water can leak into the biorb air pump causing it to malfunction.

This video shows the Reef One biOrb/biUbe One Way Valve in the bag. The valve provides extra insurance in the unlikely event of water leaking into your air line, or for extending your air line.

At least every 6 months a check should be made by disconnecting the air pump and lowering the air line below the water line. If you wish to extend the length of the air line from your aquarium it is advisable to do so with a one way valve.

This video shows the Biorb Light Unit in and out of its packaging. You can see the light’s size and design is an easy fit accessory. The low voltage light unit illuminates the biOrb and its inhabitants, turning the BiOrb into an illuminated aquarium. The light unit does not impose on the biOrb’s attractive shape and has a hole in the top for easy fish feeding. The white light simulates daylight, which assists with plant growth and brings out the true colors of the fish in your BiOrb. With the anti-glare shield removed (see instructions) the biOrb can be transformed into a living table lamp.

The Biorb light bulb is included with the unit. Use the light unit only with Biorb and Biube aquariums. No transformer is included and fits the 8, 9, and 16 gallon Biorb and Biube aquariums.

BiOrb Bubble Tube Guard

Buy a Bubble Tube Guard now!

Yet again, a short little clip, simply showing you what the BiOrb Bubble Tube Guard looks like so you can know before you buy.

Some fish like to try a squeeze themselves into the most unlikely places. Just in case one of the fish in your BiOrb aquarium enjoys this behavior, we have a top for the BiOrb bubble tube, which prevents fish from getting in, while still allowing bubbles to get out.

The biorb tube guard slides over the opening of the biorb bubble tube to prevent your fish from swimming down the bubble tube and getting stuck in your filter.  The biorb bubble tube guard might just be the difference between life and death for your fish.

Featured Product: Seachem Ammonia Alert

Buy a Seachem Ammonia Alert now!

The Seachem Ammonia Alert is an innovative product. No strips, no tests, just constant readings.

In the absence of ammonia the unit will assume a yellow-green color. It is normal for the dry sensor to have a greenish hue. It may take up to a few days for a dry sensor to equilibrate with the water. No sampling of water, chemicals, or test procedures are required. The presence of the free ammonia is detectable continuously with a response time of about 15 minutes. Response to decreasing ammonia is slower, requiring about 4 hours to go from TOXIC to SAFE on removal of ammonia.

As little as 0.02 mg/L of free ammonia will produce a greenish hue on the detector surface. This corresponds to a total ammonia (both ionized and free ammonia) of 0.25 mg/L in marine water at pH 8.3. In freshwater at pH 7.0, this corresponds to 3.6 mg/L total ammonia. Free ammonia is much more toxic than ionized ammonia. As free ammonia, the ALERT color corresponds to about 0.05 mg/L, ALARM to about 0.2 mg/L, and TOXIC to about 0.5 mg/L. The ALERT concentration is tolerated for several days, ALARM for a few days, and TOXIC is rapidly harmful. This product is not recommended for use at acid pH

No care is required, simply wipe with soft cloth, to remove algae.

Featured Product: Biorb & Biube No Algae Filter Kit

Buy a Biorb No Algae Filter Kit now!
Watch the Biorb No Algae Filter Kit video in our blog!

Today’s featured product is the Biorb & Biube No Algae Filter Kit. This filter kit is specifically for use in place of the Biorb & Biube Service Kit, its installed in the same way, but it gets rid of any excessive algae that gathers in your Biorb & Biube.

Algae is the bane of many aquarists. No matter how many times you clean the algae off, it always grows back. However, algae can be both a good and a bad thing to your fish. Algae consume nutrients in the aquarium that, if allowed to grow, and multiply, can harm your fish. There is no way to fully get rid of algae, without sacrificing the other life in your aquarium. Small amounts of algae are natural, but excessive growth could be a sign of poor water quality, caused by a number of factors.

The Biorb No Algae Filter Kit is great for getting rid of that pesky algae that always grows on your Biorb. The process for installing the No algae filter kit is simple:

  • Wipe inside of aquarium with the provided cleaning pad. Let aquarium sit for, at least, 4 hours to allow floating algae to collect into your existing filter.
  • remove your bubble tube, and filter.
  • seperate the bubble tube from the old filter.
  • place the No Algae filter on bubble tube. And place back in aquarium.
  • add the contents of one packet into aquarium. Water will remain cloudy for 2 days. If water does not clear up in 2 days, add contents of second packet.

WARNING: this is a treatment filter and must be replaced with a standard service kit after 7 days. NOT FOR PROLONGED USE.
