Thank you very much. I try and do one video a week as I work a job and also run a private business, so my time is quite stretched. Also I don't want to make videos just for the sake of it and prefer to create content which has a purpose. Thanks for your feedback

Fabulous review. I really like the look at this as a short term storage tank rather than the bio orb tank. Think I would prefer a multi colour LED with dimmer so I could have it in my daughters room. But I wouldn't know where to start with changing the lighting. I like the MCR Bio orb lighting.

My first tropical tank I have done recently is the 6 gallon interpet cube for my blue male delta betta, 4 otocinclus and 3 snails 2 zebra and one red spotted which I absolutely love other than the lights on the lid and the crap filter which was sold as a 4 stage but turned up with just one stage carbon filter only however I bought a hyggar sponge and media filter and new light. My next tank will be the one you are discussing however I will be getting the 60 cube and I very much look forward to setting that up and eventually stocking it and will definitely be having a betta, pygmy or dwarf cory', wild green neons and shrimp, this was the initial stocking I wanted for my 6 gallon cube but decided it wouldn't necessarily be enough space for all these species and the amount of each that would have been needed for each group to feel happy and secure 😊

Hi, at the top of your filter is that just a piece of sponge you have cut and put there to stop fish going down into the filter cartridge?? Thanks

Ive recently installed this... the filter keeps floating up and lifting the little cover spilling water out of the tank. Cant see a way to remedy. Have had to put a heavy item o top to keep it down. Any ideas?

Hi! I'm a bit late to this and it might be a stupid question but here we go: the filter is supposed to be a activated charcoal filter, but I'm not too fond of that. Could i just use foam alone or does the pump or something not work for that?

I’m might have to get one of these, I really like the cube design and the lid bc you don’t have to lift it up every time you go to feed the shrimp. Great review bud!👍

Everyday Aquarist I could see it being an eyesore if its your only tank, but if you’ve got quite a few I could see it saving a bit of time.

Great informative review

Should the water level be just below where the water spills out of the filter or above the opening? There isn’t much water movement on the surface.

Any pointers on how to get the pump to work? It’s on but no water trickles from the top

Hello do you know how high I should fill this tank it doesn’t say in the instructions? My best regards.

fantastic!!!! how do you avoid shrimp sucked in filter slots? i put a panty hose over my filter , good or bad idea?

Bonjour est il possible de brancher un programmateur pour la lumière? Merci

Looks like you have better luck at keeping shrimp than me 😂

Has anyone had issues with the heater not staying on while inside the back of the filter unit? I’m assuming it’s due to the immediate area heating up quickly due to being a small space and turning off more frequently. I bought another heater thinking it was faulty. My query is if I put the nano heater in the unit will it keep the tank temp at the correct temp?

Hey Everyday Aquarist, I have the qubic 30 pro but the filter is really noisy, any recommendations to counter this? I have taken everything apart more than 10 times now and am unable to find the reason. I thought it was because tje filter is integrated in the tank, but the first 2 days I had no noise

Hello, what is the size of the base platform that the tank sits on

I didnt catch the height of the aqauarium (incl) led lamp. in cm please?

Strange question, but: How sturdy is the corvering? This is the most interesting model for shrimpkeeping I've seen, but I've got to factor in a curious cat that might test its limits at some point.

Does the filter just hang in the corner? It seems unrelated to the unit that houses the cartridge.

Love the tank! Can you include a link to where I can order one?

I would add that the folter is removable. There are three tabs at the bottom that if you press, should allow it to slide off

Awesome video. Just bought the QubiQ 30 pro led. One question, how did you put a timer on the light? A simple hardware store timer doesn't seem to work because the light doesn't 'remember' it's last mode. What do you have?

Nice video! It convinced me to try getting this tank. I have an issue with the heater though, and I can't seem to be able to find any information about it. I believe superfish nano 50 heaters (the recommended ones) are either not produced anymore, or they've been rebranded as just 'eco', since these are also 17 cm in lenght. I got a superfish 50 pro (the only one they had in the store) because the box said it's 17 cm as well! It fits firmly in the compartment, but the tip at the bottom has to be pushed all the way outside the filter box (there is a small plastic removable disc that can be removed at the bottom). Even so, the temperature knob of the heater remains too far up for the filter box lid to close properly. And at the bottom, where the heater tip shows outside of the box, a small space is formed that would allow for critters to slip in the whole compartment. In this video the heater seems so far down in its concealed space, what am I doing wrong?

How is the filter I've heard they are bad

Good review thank you! I am looking to upgrade my fluval chi to this one for my betta. Currently the chi is well cycled and having added extra light, a waterfall external filter and filter medium its brilliant but if I were to buy the Qubiq would I have to stick just to the filter caratridge or can I use the ceramic filter balls I already have for extra biological filtration? As much as the Qubiq looks nice, I do feel that I need to pimp my filter to do what I need it to do. Also is the lid really that far from the edge? looks about an inch? Thanks

The only thing I dont like is the glass lid as the light reflects back into your face but its a very minor issue. The tank is a good size and the filter is more than adequate. Mine is substrate and planted up and my plants needed pruning after a month as they grew too much! He has drift wood rocks a cocoa shell in there and plenty of moss to mooch around in. I guess he must be ok as he is always making bubble nests. I have an assassin snail in there as well called Sid.

MH Aquatics how would you stop this?

Apologies in advance - I'm new to the world of shrimp keeping/nano aquariums! In some comments you mentioned that you use an air driven sponge filter instead of the filter prefitted to the tank. Does this mean you removed the entire filter system, or just the filter media cartridge which slides out? I've watched some of your more recent videos but it appears that the prefitted filter is still in the tank, so does this mean it's just the cartridge you are replacing? If you did remove the full filter, how did you go about this? I am looking to keep shrimp and have purchased this tank, but having read some comments, I'm concerned that the filter may suck up the shrimp? Thank you.

Très mauvais aquarium, je ne conseille pas son achat pour les points suivant : 1) le filtre se bouche régulièrement, il faut le changer tous les 20 jours ce qui reste onéreux , si l'on ne surveille pas son fonctionnement, le filtre remonte et l'eau qui passe à travers arrive à déborder et couler à l'extérieur de l'aquarium....2) le couvercle de protection est en verre, il faut faire attention de ne pas le casser lorsque l'on intervient à l'intérieur de l'aquarium, risque de coupure. 3) les led d'éclairage ont une durée de vie de moins d'un an, impossible à changer sans casser le support... donc pour ces 3 raisons, prenez un modèle ayant des éléments séparés...ma note 2 sur 10 !!
