Weird Aquarium

[Back in the fold]

This is one of two aquariums that are in the nursing home where my wife is temporarily ensconced . I don’t know the exact dimensions but I eyeballed it at 24 Inches wide by 12 inches front to back and about 36 inches deep . It is built out of 1/2 inch thick glass and appears homemade . It’s got a deep gravel layer and I saw that it is filtered with an under gravel filter run by two power heads . I have never seen anything like this and I stared at it like you would a car wreck . Four fancy Goldfish occupy the thing .

Well that's something different

It sure is !

The dimentions are very weird. I'm guessing it was purpose-made for that gap it's located in?

I think it is a gap of somesort.. Are there any other pics of this peculiar aquarium

Also hope everything is ok with the Mrs

Is there a bar above that you tie your ankles to to clean the bottom of that tank? Seeing that might cheer your wife up.

I thought that too . It seems purpose built to fit there . It was hard to get a decent picture because the room is very sunny with a lot of windows . Lots of glare .

Yeah , how would you reach in that well ?
