Hmmmm Ok so it's FW but I think my next reef tank will be like this

I have no idea. I think it was on Fark or /. or reddit or one of those places.

I just thought it was hilarious someone would do that. I don't think it's a very viable thing to do and I don't think it improves the quality of life of the fish like the guy says, but if it's for real then it's just an interesting technical challenge.

If I build one of these tubes from my basement up to my living room, I don't really think I'd see my tang come up to tell me it's feeding time.

Very cool idea, but I'd also be scared that something would happen to release all the water.

Thanks for posting

I think this tank would be easier to do.

It would be super cool and benificial for an octopus tank.

Heh! Yeah, I saw this on RC a few days ago. Nuts.

I wouldnt think there would be much if any waterflow through something like that, thus you'd have a hard time changing the water in there. I mean I understand the fish swim through it but they wouldnt displace enough water to get the nutrients out. Fish can poop up in there too. Also, a waterchange would prove difficult because you cant go beyond the bottom of the tube, haha.

Definetly a cool technical challenge nontheless!

What happens when one of them die in a tube? Get a massive bending poker stick and poke it out?

That's insane. Talk about flood potential, I can soak my carpet easily enough as it is.
