Please do not tap the Aquarium glass while visiting, it disturbs the fish!

Ok so its been a long time since I have posted a fishtank as the home show, I guess I was just waiting for one that made me say "Oh wow, havent seen that before" and here it is!
I love how they used the carpet to give it a sculptured sand bottom, the blue paintings as a backdrop that actually encloses the tank and gives it a real watery feel. That along with the waterfall aeration system above and the green lighting makes for a spectacular display, Kudos!
If you want your home featured in the home show please just send me a PM with a link to an image of the project and a short description! thanks!

Using the carpet for the bottom of the tank andthe paintings as the background is truly creative. Nice work.

incredible fish tank, how did you make the background or whatever for it? Hope you don't mind if I give it a shot...
I dont mindThe background's just paintings (The Lucky Despot Wreckage) The backs are invisible so I just had all the paintings facing inwards and from the outside you cant see they are there but you can see a background from every angle.
I can't believe this got posted so fast, I thought there'd be a long queue of people and their creations ahead of mine
ingenius...

actually if you look paintings go all the way around it. but since you can see through the backs of paintings with only a tiny trim, where ever you are in the room you will see paintings on 3 sides. very inventive

Very cool looking aquarium! Anyone know where on Naboo (Starsider) that I might find this beauty? I'd love to check it out in person.

Ooh, that's really nice. I'm having a friend who's really good at this sort of thing decorate my house on Intrepid. I wonder if it'll turn out this well. Hehe, I hope so.

Hmm don't have the exact coordinates off hand, but, my vendor should be registered on the planatary map as Davidus' pets for Creature Handlers, or something like that. I know it's near Moenia, if you're facing the starport, go to the left around it, and keep heading in that general direction till you come to a big field of organic harvestors, keep goin and you'll find a PA hall, and thats it...

Using paintings like that is so clever! That is such a neat effect to have them facing inward like that for a background from any side. The ornate rug for a sandy bottom is a great idea too and must be a big item saver.
Not to meantion how awesome it looks all together w/ that lighting =)
