um.. ya, there are so many things wrong there. I'm sure it was fun to build but I'm also pretty sure that the actual finished product is going to turn out to be an EPIC FAIL.

Um my jaw hit the floor! But I guess I can't judge to much, I very briefly wondered if I could turn a kiddy pool into an aquarium

I am sure it is very functional. You would need a better filter and algea would be a problem to get off because you can't use anything abrasive (could only clean the glass).

I just think it would be so EMBARRASSING when people came over IMO (I guess maybe i'm a snob)
