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)

You can get regular cheap fish tanks for around $8.00 - $50.00 now.
It would be a lot safer and a lot more reliable.

+1 for creativity
That tank would be very nicely insulated for the inhabitants

Oh dear god. As mentioned before, That will probably explode right quick, lol. But ingenous I guess sorta :P

But its much easier to buy a 'clear plastic bin' like another video suggests... cause that will work, and I did it once out of necessity! Haha.
