Where should I place the biOrb in my home?

The main cause of nuisance algae is sun light, if your aquarium develops a lot of algae you should consider moving it to a darker location in your home. The aquarium can really help brighten a dark corner of a room, and this will be an ideal location.

biOrb is an aquarium, water may besplashed or spilt, therefore:

  • Don't position the biOrb on or above items that are electrical or could be damaged by water.
  • Don't place biOrb near sources of heat such as radiators, powerful lamps or in hot conservatories.
  • Don't place biOrb in direct sunlight such as on a windowsill.
  • Never move biOrb full of water. (Remember it weighs 30 kg when activated).
