Is your mind set on saltwater or are you willing to do fresh/brackish? Because another idea could be a strictly amphibian tank with water (duh) and a sandy beach. You could put in frogs, turtles, salamanders, snakes. Make it all pretty with tropical flowers and ferns.

or if all else fails, empty it all out, flip it upside down and use it as your new coffee table

Smile idea

How about cold salt water? you could just pick up staff from local beach in N. Van?
Anemonies, sea stars, barnicles, small crabs, filetr feeding corals (yes i have seen very pretty staff down there), small fish would be ok too.

hey yeah cold is a good one! Ive always wanted a tank with two cold local species : grunt sculpins because they're the cutest thigns ever and pacific spiny lumpsuckers because they're the most ridiculous looking things ever... the larvae look like commas, the adults look like golf balls.
