Show that solutions of differential equation has horizontal asymptote

Show that all solutions of differential equation $$ x' = \left( \frac{x^2+1}{t^4+1} \right)^{1/3}$$ have two horizontal asymptotes.

Obviously, the derivative is positive everywhere, so it is sufficient to show that all solutions are bounded. However, i have no clue how to do that.
