Biorb- 8 U.s Gal/ 30 Liters

[tropicalwaters]

hey, Just out of curiosity:

- Does anyone have a biorb? what is your experience w/ them what do you have
- How would you stock it?

I got one for a gift and I just finished its cycle, its nice and empty and I am wondering what to do with it!
I already have a couple of tanks, so pretty good experience in both salt and freshwater.

Really for that size a tank, maybe a couple female betta's, maybe a male betta, or maybe some guppies. With such a small tank, possiblities, arent endless. You could also try breeding shrimp or something.

I am loking at some review and i am seeing that this tank is not the best. Anyone have any advice to give? I had just finished my cycle ( all zeros) and put in one male guppy and two days later hes dead! any advice?

what's all zeros? not everything should be at zero.
what exactly are your stats? maybe it can help narrow down possibilities.
ammonia
nitrite
nitrate
ph

I have one of these tanks which houses a male betta and an oto, I have never had any problems!!

I've got mine stocked with some neon tetras, did originally want to keep a male betta but didn't have any luck with those. I also have some lava rock in there I've planted with anubias and java moss.
