Amazon Customer: Exactly what it states. Arrived quickly and an original bio orb part

Rebecca Rodriguez: Hope you didn’t get the small rocks and put them in there like I did! They get stuck and make it hard to remove the old filter and place a new one in. Go ahead and invest in the larger river rocks if the ones that came with your tank are too abrasive for your fish. All in all, I love how easy it is to change the tank filter. Without me having to hand pick all the tiny rocks out of the way, the change honestly could have taken seconds.

Lashley M.: It's a fish filter. It does it's job. Why the hell it is inset in the bottom of the tank and not through the middle of the tube or something I don't know. It is a pain in the arse to keep the rocks out and get the base snapped back in. And if you have a planted tank, which is hard but doable, it's really hard to see and make sure you aren't hurting any of your animals. If the base portion was a little higher or the bottom half of the tub instead of the base it would be easier and just as effective.

WahooLawyer: After neglecting my aquarium with inconsistent maintenance and occasional over feeding, I put this on subscription to remind me when it is time to take care of my finned friends. After just two months, my aquarium is about 1/3 as nasty as when I started. (Seriously, I suddenly realized that my fish would be perfectly justified if they died on me, though they didn’t. They deserve so much better!) Once I had all the tools in place, it takes me less than 10 minutes to get the replacement water ready the day before, +3 minutes to change the filter and another 15 to “vacuum” and change the water. I’m going to be a much better keeper from now on.

Sasal: Produit original donc aucun problème pour le mettre en place par contre l’emballage pour l’envoi l’écrase et déforme les points d’attaches que l’on peut remettre en place

JkdiscereJkdiscere: It was not clear what this kit included or didn’t include and I was reluctant to purchase if this only included the sponges ( similar to some third parties that don’t include the charcoal) but this kit was better than expected for the price! Actual biorb brand so you don’t have to worry about fit or function. Includes water clarifier as well. These replacements are pricy but I find even with 10 fish in the tank I only need to do an 1/8th of a tank water change every 2-3 weeks as long as the filter ( and carbon) is changed out every 6 months or so. To me the time saved in tank maintenance is worth the 5-10$ extra it costs to buy the set.

Scrub pads work great. Wish there were more but they can be used a couple times.

Water clarifier, honestly not much value added ( especially if you do water changes regularly). But if you find that you stir something up when you move decor or catch a fish this will clear it up quickly.

Packets for water treatment are ok. Care with concentration. It has put a fish into shock once because it hadn’t mixed in well enough.

Bloodbuzz459: 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...
