A Guide For Setting Up Saltwater Aquariums (Part I) by Allen Jesson
So, you are wondering if a Saltwater Aquarium is for you. Most people believe that marine aquarium keeping is infinitely more difficult than freshwater. Not so. The simple truth is that saltwater fish and invertebrates are not necessarily more difficult to keep, they just have different requirements than freshwater fish and are a bit less forgiving when it comes to mistakes. The key to fully understanding this section is to understand the basics presented here.
With the outstanding assortment of beautiful saltwater fish to choose from, it is no wonder that so many hobbyists dream of maintaining a marine aquarium. This guide is intended to answer many of the questions a novice marine aquarist may have, and to provide some basic guidelines for selecting and caring for saltwater fish and invertebrates. In addition, we hope that every saltwater hobbyist will read several good, current books on the subject.
Reef Tank and Fish Tank: What is the Difference ?
There are many different ways you can set up an aquarium depending on what you would like to keep and what interests you most in the hobby. Accordingly hobbyists tend to put names on the different types of aquariums that can be set up because they have similar general requirements depending on the classification of tank.
Fish Only Tank
A Fish Only Tank is a tank that is dedicated to keeping fish, without any sort of corals, anemones or clams. They can contain some mobile invertebrates mainly for helping keep the tank clean. This set up is easier to set up and less costly then a reef tank. This type of tank can be classified into two different areas as well, fish only or fish only with Live Rock.
Reef Aquarium
A Reef Aquarium contains a lot of life with the main focus being corals or anemones. This type of system generally contains a huge variety of species that require an extremely specialized setup. The needs of the corals or anemones take priority whereas fish in these tanks are considered secondary. Although we generally classify all tanks with corals in it as a reef tank, there are still different types of reef tanks such as softy, LPS (large polyp stony) and SPS (small polyp stony) tanks. These three tanks also have different requirements as well.
Here is a brief summary of some of the different equipment requirements for the two types of tanks.

BiOrb and BiUbe fish tanks - opinions on these please?
I am thinking of buying a 30L BiOrb, or a BiUbe aquarium, to keep a few small Tropical Fish. I've seen mixed reviews on how good these are and how suitable they are for the fish. Any guidance or thoughts would be much appreciated.
I've kept tropical fish for years in conventional rectangular tanks and like the idea of looking at something a bit different!
Many thanks.
The problem with BiOrbs and BiUbes is that although they are aesthetically pleasing, the construction of the tanks are far from an optimal environment for fish.
I personally had contemplated purchasing one because of the uniqueness of it's looks. However, after looking into the design of the tank, it looks as though there are a few flaws.
1. The filtration is inadequate for most fish. The filtration system is setup like an undergravel filter with built in mechanical, chemical, and biological filtration. The cartridges which need to be replaced though would basically wipe out your tank of most of the bacterial colonies keeping your cycle in check each time it's replaced.
2. Water volume is insufficient for most fish. Both aquariums I think range between 8-12 gallons depending on the size and style you get. Either way, 8-12 gallons is barely cutting the minimum amount of space needed for even small tropical fish (especially since most small tropicals are schooling fish.) It may be suitable for a single betta, but it doesn't seem like it would be worth the price of such a fancy aquarium for just one fish.
3. The design. Again as previously stated, although very aesthetically pleasing, the design is not made very well for fish keeping in that it doesn't allow for very much surface area. The globe shaped tank has the least amount of surface area the closer you get to the top. Although it does provide a stream of bubbles, usually the more surface area to allow for oxygenation and gas exchange in the tank the better.
--------------------------------
I must say however, that I have never personally owned one. If I did, I would definitely stock it to the bare minimum.
