biOrb Service Kit, With Filter Cartridge, Water Treatment & Cleaning Pad

Excellent .

Great

Great price and very easy to install

Pretty much a given that you will have to buy this if you have biOrb, there are other brands out there that make them slightly cheaper and I know some purists like to make the filler and so on themselves but for ease at least for now I have just stuck with this. In pack is obviously the filter cartridge, cleaning wipe and a sachet of water conditioner and bio booster. There are wide ranging opinions on how often you need to change the filter and biOrb from memory say every 4-6 weeks which many dispute, personally I'm on the fence. I think it ultimately comes down to the type of fish you stock and most importantly how many. Though in my honest opinion I'm not convinced the biOrb filtration is as good as it should be and so I perform water changes weekly (15-25%) and change the filter every 6-8 weeks. I keep about a third of the old sponge though for bacteria purposes. This rotation seems to keep the fish happy and my ammonia levels etc. just about in check. I keep the conditioner and bio boosters for emergencies but don't use them, I stick with the Fluval products which I feel a little more reassured in using. I also haven't used the cleaning wipes as my biOrb does seem to be keeping quite clean as I do keep on top of it as much as possible and I am hesitant to start scrubbing the acrylic because it is notorious for scratching. Overall no complaints, wether you consider it an expensive ongoing cost is debatable I probably don't begrudge £6-£7 every 6-8 weeks and you can buy multi packs which are a little more cost effective.

We have been buying these for our biorb for several years. They are easy to use and fit easily. They work well supplying the tank with a good amount of bubbles. They filter the water well and we find it lasts about 8 weeks so is good value for money really.

Good value kit, consistently high quality.

I always buy the genuine filters for my biorb ,seem to be better quality and last ,I find i can remove the filter sponge ,wash it though and use it again ,keeps the water clean,easy to to use .

Great product, order every 6 weeks for my fish tank,I’m just cross that the delivery driver left it by my gate all night, because they were too lazy to walk down my path and leave it by my front door.

Es correcto en cuanto a los productos y el filtro

I love these service kits and being able to easily and cleanly change them out regularly. They fit any biorb aquarium but need to be changed more often for larger bio loads. The filter quality is a medium permeable sponge allowing for the filter to potentially get clogged if not changed regularly enough but not so fine that they clog in a week, which would cause it to lose suction. I change my filter out once a month but keep healthy bacteria with a coarse donut shaped sponge (cut to fit) surrounding the bottom around the filter as a pre-filter that doesn’t need to be changed except every couple years.

Tutto ok

Il est essentiel à mon aquarium BiOrb, il fonctionne parfaitement, il vient avec une lingette pour nettoyer la vitre, ainsi que deux enveloppes de traitement pour l'eau.

Excelente servicio gracias...
