Modular fish tank feels more like a hamster home

gal_img1.jpg

Remember your first hamster? I do—his name was bullet. He died, but that's a different story. He had this amazing modular hamster cage that allowed him to go all over the place for fun and entertainment. Now Octopus Studios, a furniture and aquarium design firm is offering up similar type of modular designs, but for fish with the Silverfish Aquarium. The entire kit is custom build to order by Octopus Studios. It comes with extensive instructions for installation, or you can pay even more to get Octopus Studios to install it for you.

The fish tank is designed for fresh-water fish and would make a great training gym for beta fish. Train fish in each individual module and then let them go at it in a center ring. I'd pay to watch that.

That looks amazing, I think I could watch something like that for hours... I don't want to think what it'd be like to clean it though.

By MikeT at 7:14 PM ON 02/03/08

Imagine what it must be like to clean the inside of this thing?

Fighting bettas is a horrible practice and is cruel to the fish. It is a bad idea to advertise this tank for the purpose of fighting fish with other fish.

I think its just GREAT that nobody answers the questions!

This tank looks very interesting but is completely impractical. I cannot foresee anything thriving in this environment much less surviving. There doesn't seem to be any presence of a filter or an easy way to vaccum the wastes on the lower levels. Which results in nitrate levels through the roof and loss of all fish. Not to mention once algae starts growing on the walls how will it be removed? The designer of this tanks apparently is not a fish keeper themself.
