Pimp My Filter #76 - Biorb / Halo 15, 30, 60 and MORE

Biorb 15 aquarium (Amazon): https://geni.us/HMn7 Apologies for the length of this video - I got carried away but there are time stamps below for easy navigation. Skip the history lesson if you're not interested - the existing Biorb filtration starts at 08:54 and the upgrade starts at 15:37. Filter Kits, Foams, Biohome, Biogravel etc: http://www.filterpro.co.uk (FilterPro site has links to Biohome suppliers in other countries) Eheim Substrat Pro: https://geni.us/98euQaB Follow me on Odysee: https://odysee.com/$/invite/@PondGuru:0 Contact me on 07772848730 / [email protected] ******(I don't do texts)****** The Biorb tanks have been around for ages and have had NO upgrades to the filtration since the day they were launched which frustrates the living urins out of me ..... Aaaarrrggghh ....... Oase know that millions of fish die every year in the Biorb tanks yet continue to adopt the model of 'After Sales Potential' - basically profit over health ...... are they owned by Pfizer? (Shizer) ...... maybe, lol 'Mr. X' needs to sort this mess out..... I've backed Oase and dealt with them for well over 20 years - the vast majority of my pond videos use Oase pumps and filters because they are AWESOME but the Biorb filtration system????......damn, it needs an upgrade and now you've got it..... Amount of Biogravel in each kit is as follows: 1.5kg - 15 litre Orb / Halo 2kg - 30 litre Biorb / Halo 3.5kg - 60 litre Biorb / Halo 3.5kg - 15, 30, 60 litre Flow 3.5kg - 15, 30, 45, 60 litre Life I don't do a kit for the 105 Orb but it takes 5kg Biogravel to properly cover the foams. The amount of Biogravel needed is based on the tank base area since it is being used as a substrate in an under gravel filter system - with this system (using Biogravel) you are effectively creating a highly efficient, safe and easy-to-maintain super filter which replicates a living deep sand bed which will process ammonia, nitrite and nitrate for a FULL CYCLE. TIME STAMPS 00:00 Intro 00:28 My history with Biorbs and Oase 07:30 The Biorb disasters 08:54 How the Biorbs come set up from manufacturer 15:37 The new and improved set up 32:16 The water conditioner issue 34:08 Inside the Biorb 34:41 Other media options 36:56 Other Biorb kits available online 38:11 Outro The following videos will be useful for learning more about filtration and filter media: Sizing a canister properly and filter set up: https://goo.gl/om19un Looking INSIDE different filter media: https://goo.gl/hZWS6c Bacteria and filter media: https://goo.gl/123gAF How to clean an aquarium: https://goo.gl/bPMhvh Aquarium tips / filtration playlist: https://goo.gl/pXgqVj A full cycle is completed by bacteria - the aerobic part of biological filtration which processes ammonia to nitrite and nitrite to nitrate followed by an anaerobic part which processes nitrate into soluble nitrogen which bubbles off to the atmosphere. Therefore it requires a suitable amount of excellent quality filter media to be able to provide the environment for both aerobic AND anaerobic bacteria - that is what Biohome filter media does perfectly but even with such good media there are limitations and we recommend the following amounts for different stocking scenarios: (1 US Gallon = 3.8 litres) (1kg = 2.2 lbs) Average community tropical aquarium = 1kg per 100 litres Average coldwater aquarium = 1kg - 1.5kg per 100 litres Predator aquarium = 1.5kg - 2kg per 100 litres Large cichlid aquarium = 1.5kg - 2kg per 100 litres Malawi / Tanganyikan aquarium = 1.5kg - 2kg per 100 litres Marine aquarium = 1.5kg - 2kg per 100 litres Average mixed fish pond = 1kg per 200 litres Average koi pond = 1kg per 150 litres You may be disagreeing with the above figures but remember that they are for a FULL CYCLE not half a job - achieving 0 ammonia and 0 nitrite is quite easy since aerobic bacteria grows freely on any surface but the anaerobic bacteria responsible for COMPLETING the cycle needs more a specialized habitat. Remember to use a water conditioner which does not bind / detoxify ammonia, nitrite or nitrate as that type of conditioner will severely limit bacteria numbers by starving the bacteria of 'food'. Size a filter properly, set it up sensibly and you will have perfect water - it's that simple....and your filter won't be the dreaded 'Nitrate factory'.....you'll spend less money on treatments too......basically the filter is the foundation of a successful aquarium. This series of videos is all about trying to squeeze more efficiency out of internal and external aquarium filters which generally have a limited filtering capacity We all are on a long path of learning.........
