I have also seen chair tanks too. ___________________________________________ If at first you DO succeed, try not to look astonished.

Incidently, looking at one of these tanks in a magazine on an airplane got me saying I wanted a fish tank, my mom said properly research it and I could have one for my birthday...shortly after getting my tank, I went to FP for help sotcking it full Last edited by Tetra Fan at 10-Aug-2005 16:04

Racso Mega Fish Some Assembly Required Posts: 1163 Kudos: 1442 Votes: 35 Registered: 19-Feb-2002	I think they're cool. I wouldn't put any fish in it that are skiddish though. However, it would provide a new way to look at fish. Another problem is that gravel vacs would be a pain, have to take the top glass off every time. Also, you would have a cord(s) running from the table to outlets. Something you usually don't have with coffe tables. Anyway, I think its a neat thing, if taken care of properly.

Tetra Fan Mega Fish Posts: 1203 Kudos: 1081 Votes: 63 Registered: 11-Apr-2004	And you wouldn't sit on it or put your feet on it if you had half a brain cell I was reffering to the chair tanks that lightbright mentioned

Hello Fishy Banned Posts: 32 Kudos: 27 Votes: 5 Registered: 13-Jul-2005	Its a cool idea, if you dont have things that would be hazardous to it such as pets, SISTERS or myself... If I ever got one, it would be destroyed within a week. sabrina

Janna Mega Fish Posts: 1386 Registered: 24-Aug-2003	They have a light in that corner thing. I think the idea is nice, but when it comes down to it, it would be too much of a pain to deal with to actually have longterm. Most coffeetables are put in well-lit rooms. Mine is close to a big picture window. Can you imagine scrubbing the algae that'll be sure to grow? Blech. They shade the glow of it with their mossy-misty costumes, They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver, So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces.
