That's is great!!!
DOn't you love in these kind of pics though, the glass in CRYSTAL clear.. haha I know it's possible! But would be more difficult in a tank like that.. I was looking at these from the manufacturer one time.. they are a weee bit pricey! hah.

Pretty sweet tank, I would do it if I had a lot of extra time and money to blow. I have also seen the coffee table tanks, those are awesome too, would rather one of those then the sink imho.

We were just talking about the toilet bowl tank at our last local reef club meeting. We were thinking that if you were going to setup a toilet bowl tank, you might as well use have the water feeding it be from your tank. Every time you'd flush the toilet, the tank would get a mini water change. Of course, your auto top off reservoir has to be large enough to handle the volume of several flushes for when you have visitors over.

Wow, that toilet tank is pretty freaky. Looks crazy when you flush it. Looks nice at night though, have to admit. In any case I will stick with my current toilets, lol!

My guess would be that you would have to go through the plastic stoppers on the left and right.

So, this is a lesson to all the fish bhobbiests out there.....next time your wife/mother/guardian says "we dont have room for a stupid ol' fish tank", You can simply show them the links and tell them how you will have room
