Fish might not be as fun as dogs or cats to have around, but they're still beautiful pets that can be relatively easy to maintain. Many of us like to show them off in small, plain glass bowls, maybe with some fake plants and a little treasure chest, but even the most well-decorated bowls can get boring to look at after a while. To combat this, some people have gotten extremely creative with their aquariums, and the results are pretty spectacular.
We've seen some pretty awesome fish homes before. This DIY fish pond started out as an old, rusty spa pool, but you'd never guess it based on how it looks today! Of course, if you don't want to make an aquarium from scratch, you could always just add on to one that already exists. This man can show you a cool way to transform your outdoor fish pond into something that will both impress your guests and entertain your fish. Even if you don't have an outdoor pond, though, you can still make your indoor fish home catch everyone's eye.
Take a look at this video to see a bunch of nifty ideas to move your fish from an ordinary fish bowl into a piece of art. However, it should be noted that none of the betta fish in this clip are in proper homes: Those little tanks are far too small for these tropical animals. Bettas require at least a gallon of water to swim in, and ideally, they'll have at least a 2.5-gallon tank to live in. It's also good to buy a water filter and heater for them. And of course, no matter what decorations and cool lights you buy to adorn your tank, the most important thing is that your fish are happy, so make sure your upgraded aquarium is easy to clean and your little pets are fed well!
Make sure you SHARE these cool aquarium ideas with all your friends so they can be inspired by new ways to house their aquatic pets!
