FAQs
How often should I use the BiOrb Maintenance Kit?
The kit contains supplies for two services; we recommend performing a full service every 8 weeks.
Can I use these cleaning pads on glass tanks?
These pads are specifically designed for acrylic BiOrb tanks; use on glass may be ineffective and is not recommended.
Do I need to remove fish when using these chemicals?
No, all products included in the kit are designed to be safe for your fish when used according to the provided instructions.
What if I lose the microfibre cloth?
Only use high-quality, non-abrasive microfibre cloths to avoid scratching the acrylic surface.
Is the water conditioner safe for sensitive species?
Yes, the conditioner neutralizes chlorine and heavy metals, making tap water safe for all common aquarium inhabitants.
Troubleshooting
Water appears cloudy after filter change
This is normal during the first 24 hours as the biological booster activates. Ensure you have not overfed the fish during the cleaning process.
Air stone produces large bubbles or noise
Ensure the air stone is pushed firmly into the housing. If the noise persists, it may be time to replace the air stone included in the kit.
Streaks left on the tank after cleaning
Ensure the surface is dry before applying the high gloss polish and use only the supplied microfibre cloth.
