biOrb Classic 60 Acrylic Aquarium, 60.6 L, Black with Remote LED Lights

The biOrb CLASSIC 60 MCR is a 16-gallon (60 L) acrylic aquarium designed for tabletop display, with a 360-degree view for enjoying its underwater scene from every side.

• Acrylic is 10 times stronger, 50% lighter and 23% clearer than ordinary glass — a different material choice for a lighter, clearer aquarium.
• Five-stage filtration combines biological, mechanical and chemical filtration with water stabilization and oxygenation — supporting aquarium water care.
• Remote-controlled MCR LED lighting offers adjustable color and brightness plus automatic day-and-night cycles — letting you tailor the lighting scene.
• The included setup components cover lighting, pumping and filtration — so the aquarium comes with key equipment for getting started.
• A black lid and base frame the rounded aquarium — giving the tabletop display a defined finish.
• A 2-year warranty backs the aquarium — adding manufacturer warranty coverage.

This aquarium brings a full-view fish display to a tabletop setting, with a rounded form inspired by a classic fishbowl. Its design leaves the underwater scene visible from all sides, while the included lighting and filtration equipment support the aquarium setup. Decorations are sold separately, so you can choose how to arrange the interior.

What makes the CLASSIC 60 different from a glass aquarium?

The CLASSIC 60 is made from acrylic, which is 10 times stronger, 50% lighter and 23% clearer than ordinary glass aquariums. Acrylic also insulates better than glass, helping reduce heat loss compared with a glass aquarium. The bowl-shaped design provides a 360-degree viewing experience, and the black lid and base complete the display.

• Rounded, fishbowl-inspired form for viewing from all sides.
• Black lid and base included as part of the aquarium’s finished look.
• Designed for tabletop display; compare your intended space with the aquarium’s overall footprint before setting it up.

What equipment and accessories are included?

The package includes the acrylic aquarium, multi-color LED lighting with remote, a quiet air pump, a low-voltage 12V transformer, a filter, an air stone, ceramic media, starter water treatments and instructions. Decorations are not included and are sold separately.

The low-voltage pump and lighting are part of the supplied setup, along with the filtration components and ceramic media. The ceramic media sits around the filter and provides surface area for beneficial bacteria. Quick setup and access for feeding are part of the aquarium’s design.

• Starter water treatments and instructions are included.
• Decorations are sold separately, allowing you to select the aquarium’s decorative arrangement.

How do the lighting and filtration work?

The remote-controlled MCR LED system offers 16 preset colors, a spectrum-fade option and adjustable brightness. It can also be set to automatic 8-, 10-, 12- or 14-hour day-and-night cycles. The filtration system uses five stages: biological, mechanical and chemical filtration, water stabilization and oxygenation.

The filter is positioned at the bottom of the aquarium, where fish waste sinks, and ceramic media surrounds it to provide a surface for beneficial bacteria. The lighting cycle is designed to help reduce algae blooms, which can benefit fish health and water quality while reducing routine maintenance.

• Use the remote to choose a preset color, fade through the color spectrum or adjust brightness.
• Select one of four automatic cycle lengths: 8, 10, 12 or 14 hours.
• The bottom-mounted filter works with ceramic media and the five filtration stages.

What maintenance does the aquarium need?

Maintenance needs depend on the fish species; with the biOrb Service Kit, routine maintenance may take around 15 minutes per month. The Service Kit is sold separately. The filtration system is designed for easy maintenance, and the aquarium provides access for feeding.

The CLASSIC 60 suits shoppers who want an acrylic aquarium with a rounded, all-angle view, included lighting and filtration equipment, and remote-adjustable lighting. It is intended for a tabletop display, with decorations chosen separately and maintenance time dependent on the fish species. Its 16-gallon capacity, supplied equipment and 360-degree viewing design define the setup.
