BiOrb aquariums

by mro2you2

Does anyone have experience with the BiOrb aquariums? I always wanted dwarf puffers and I thought the BiOrbs would look cool.

I would only get 1 male and 3 females in the BiOrb.

Dwarf puffer would be a tight squeeze. They have a three stripe with two clowns and plastic plants. Those clowns are done for.

Overpriced.... yes. Don't waist your money on one. Buy a hydrometer instead.

Three stripe damsel... Thats why the clowns are doomed. They are not compatible in such a small tank. I owned one and he was the devil.
