MY lfs has a toilet like that with a school of rummy nosed tetras in it. I wonder what those fish in the toilets see outside that tank when in a bathroom. LOL

That's terrible.

My bets are that it will go out of production pretty soon, as soon as the animal rights groups get on it.
Like the iPond. That was critized so much and so fast it made my head spin.


You know what would be really cool though?
Cutting out a hole in the wall and putting a 20 gallon in it, then putting a big picture frame around it and a little hanger. That would be look better and still have the same kind of look. Better for the fish too.

Really sad. That shows that aquariusts don't wanna care for their tank. That's part of owning fish. You have to be willing to spend money on your tank set it up, and maintain it to own one. An owner of one of those tanks most likely doesn't test/change the water, and if he/she tried SW will end up wth a big mess of rocks, really salty water, and a fillet 0' fish every night. There is also not nearly enough room. The only fish that can survive atleast a day in that thing is a day old school of fry.

some of those wall tanks are actually good for smaller fish like white clouds, they had a pretty good wall tank at london drugs, $400 for $200, with light, filter, heater, etc. it had i think 6" width

How would you get a filter on a tank that's right up against the wall?

That is very depressing.

another form of cruelty, are yellow tang abusers

2 yellow and 1 regal in a small tank

My personal favourite, not because he has a regal and a clown in a 20 gallon (BAD), but because he knows it's wrong but is doing it anyway.

yeah, people abuse tangs

the person im getting the light, wave maker, and skimmer from had a powder blue tang from their 20g for sale, if i already didnt have a tang (2 tangs in a tank under 200g will fight), i wouldve got him. they said someone bought ALL of the livestock at once, so i imagine he went to a big tank

and with your second link, i checked his profile a few months ago, he has proper large tanks for them but uses small tanks only to take the videos

"All fishes video are taken in a 10 or 20 gal VIDEO TANK in purpose of taking this short video only. The container in the video is NOT the fishes "official" home. I intend to use a smaller tank to show all aspects of the fish. I LOVE the fishes with all my heart and I know what I am doing, I will not and never risk the fishes' healthy for anything!"
