House of Fish is like any other large
doll's
house with its upper and lower floors;
rooms full of minutely crafted furniture
and accessories; connecting corridors;
doorways and staircases.
Its biggest difference is that it is full of
fish, happily swimming around from
room
to room
and up and down the stairs.
They
can do this, because House of Fish is
actually an aquarium.
Like any good doll's house, you can turn
it
around and swing open the back to
reveal
the insides of all the rooms
simultaneously
in cross section.
Alternatively, you can leave it facing
forward, in which case the occasional
guppy or swordtail will drift past a lace
curtained window, or peer upwards from
the attic skylight.

Habitrail for fish. So long as the water level in both tanks is the same height from the ground, it holds water in the tube. [Giblet, Aug 29 2007]
If they are going to pay the mortgage, they're going to need a work space.

Cool - I vote New Orleans shotgun style! |

The best aquarium I ever saw had been built inside a large antique birdcage, with the glass flush against the bars, so it looked like the fish were flying around the cage. |

open the front and all the water would fall out. |

Is it wet in here, or is it just me? |

+ hope your fish eat croissants! |

youd have better feed them in the kitchen,
but the real trick will be getting them to
use the bedrooms. and pumping bubbles
through the vents. lol |
