It is cool looking, but with any failure in the system I would not want to be the one cleaning up the mess.

Depends on how the tank is setup, it wouldn't be a big mess.
If you fill up the bottom tank, setup the vertical part, and vacuum the vertical part, you basically guarantee that if it fails, all the water would be sitting in the bottom tank. The water probably wouldn't splash either because of the vacuum that has been setup at the top. If the vacuum is stable, it technically will hold, since the only way that water will get out of there is by new air coming in. And basically as the new air comes in, the same, small volume of water water would be pushed out. ________ CD175 |

Interesting ... I bet that's it. I was thinking it was maybe a panel of glass separating the air curtain from the vacuum side but I bet you're onto something there. A "closed loop" but for air instead of water. :lol:

I guy could probably use a float switch to activate some kind of vacuum system when the air pocket got to a certain size.

If you look at the top of the tank he has a line drawn at the fill point of the waterline.
I also think this is done wiht mirrors. one scene the fish are in the top half then it cuts and they are all in the bottom. then when they swim under the top part they disappear. you can clearly se the top has a bottom pane of glass. |

This shows how the tank was built. No tricks, this works. |
