Biube Aquarium - What Makes It Different?
Researching Reef One products on the internet you always hear about the Biorb Aquarium, but never much about the Biube. This article highlights the Biube Aquariums and what makes them different than the Classic Biorb Aquariums.
Biube Aquariums - What Makes Them Different?
Honestly, there isn't a big difference in construction or materials from the Biube and Biorbs. They are all made from the same strong acrylic, use the same filtration, biorb service kit, light, air pump, and transformer. In addition, the Biorb Intelligent LED light fits all of them (except Baby Biorb). They all come with the same parts like the biorb ceramic media. The only significant difference between the Biube Tanks and the Biorb Tanks is the shape, size, and design of the Biube.
There are two different Biube Fish Tanks, the Classic Biube (available in Silver or Black), and the Biube Pure. Both Biube Aquariums are 9 gallons and are cylindrical in shape, rather than spherical like the classic Biorb Aquariums. The Biube Dimensions are 14.5'' x 14.5'' x 18.5''(height).
What Would Make Me Choose a Biube Over a Biorb?
1. The main reason customers choose the Biube over a Classic Biorb is because they like the shape and design better than the regular Biorb Tanks.
2. Another reason is that the Biube Aquariums don't have as much curve, so there is less distortion of the fish when looking at your biube fish tank.
3. Many people like that the biube is tall and cylindrical because it allows their fish to have more vertical swimming room.
4. Another reason is that the biube and 8 gallon biorb are very close in price, yet the Biube holds nine gallons of water, rather than eight.
Summary
The only significant difference between the Biube Aquariums and the Classic Biorb Tanks is the shape and design of the cylindrical Biube. If you like the shape of the Biube, then you will be happy with it, as it uses the same filtration and construction as Classic Biorb Aquariums. It is similar in price to the 8 Gallon Biorb, but holds an extra gallon of water, and for more bang for your buck, check out the Biube Pure. It is $195.95 and comes with the Biorb Intelligent LED Light ($105 value) that means if you were thinking about getting the Intelligent LED Light anyways, that means you get the Biube Pure for $90 ( a great deal). |
