I have a biorb 30ltr tank which I like as i have always kept large tropical aquariums, but no longer have the space since moving out.

My tank has been running over a year, and I only have 3x white cloud mountain minnows in it.

It's a bit boring and most of the time it looks like there is no fish in it at a as they are so tiny.

Any recommendations of additional cold water fish I could have?

Sadly, with the size of the tank you can't really put anything else in there.

But you knew that didn't you? wink

The only solution is a 60x24x18 400 litre tank....

But you knew that, right

I kinda did.
Why do they bother selling stupid tanks that aren't big enough for anything you can actually see without a magnifying glass?!

I have been fish keeping for 10 years and regret that I no longer have the space for my 250ltr tank.

I love fish, but this biorb is a waste of time and space.

Going to get rid until I move to a bigger house and can have a proper set up again.

Fed up

Yep sad to say that the 30l bi-orb isn't really suitable for much :-(

Could you not use it for some shrimp or something?

Not my taste really, but maybe it might be something rather than nothing. But then again, it seems daft to set it up for shrimp if it's not your thing.

dont fancy shrimp really. I dont like the white cloud mountain minnows. They just dont have any personality like my old fish seemed to.

Does anyone want a biorb?
