Ideas For A Cool Aquarium

[lozronz]

I used to know this fish farmer in Winchester, who was really into Koi, he put a seat with a seat belt into the concrete side of the pond (underwater) with a kind of built in snorkle and he used to take down a mask. He called it his thinking place and would strap himself in and sit watching and feeding the Koi for hours.

I would love one of those but with a tropical pond, something very relaxing like a Discus pond!

I like the swimming pool idea with loads of tropicals. Or maybe a huge fish house in my back garden. The list would be endless! Oh well...I'll keep on dreaming.

a really massive circular marine tank, with all different levels so you could have reef at the top, sharks lower down etc etc... like public aquarium type size, then then house built around the outside of it so every room has big 'windows' looking onto the aquarium.

would be ace!!

On a small scale, I would like to own a house (instead of renting one) and have a big pond with waterfalls in my backyard. I also think it would be really cool to have a separate fish house on my property, kind of like a glass arboretum, all heated and hooked up to it's own water line with tropical plants and flowers. I don't think I'd ever leave there!

Hollow glass walls... the outside walls made of opaque glass, all the others or normal glass... the wall-tanks would be HEAVILY planted, hence, creating the illusion of green walls...

Obviously a colony of small friends would be nice, some tetras and killis for example

I have been lucky enough to get a bespoke aquarium project passed off by the boss (the wife).

It has taken me months of planning and now is just finished.

I'd like a big enough tank to swim in, or at least enter and swim widdie fishes

Wow, this is an old thread resurrected, and I feel just for the purposes of spam?

 

[TimNorwich]

I wouldn't call it spam, and don't see the harm. Your post is spam as you didn't partake in the tropical discussion

errrm, I dont think that is the definition of spam.

 

[TimNorwich]

Not quite, however, it is irrelivent to the topic of the thread.

A massive tank and then a tunnel underneath. Like the ones at sealife centres. I'd also have a pool for seals and the daddy seal would be called bruno

So you think that the definition of spam is not taking part in tropical discussions? Weird

I felt it was weird that someone had dug up an old thread just to post to their own website. Also suspiciously called 'bespoke aquarium' so seemed on the face of it - without clicking the link - to be advertising their services. Oh and the fact that this is this person's first post. Seemed strange that a person who hasn't posted on the forum before, actually searched for this thread, then posted.

Maybe I just have a suspicious mind

^It was clearly spam! And having looked at the tank in the link I'm not that impressed. But that's just me.
I'd love to have a house with two swimming pools, one that could be converted into a tropical tank in which I'd keep an African biotope as I love the catfish and the colours of the rift valley cichlids. The other would be used for swimming, because I love swimming. Not sure I'd want to swim in with the fish themselves as I might infect the tank with lord knows what.

Spam is a canned precooked meat (apparently)

How many pages did you go down in the listing to find a post from 2006?
