Why bore your fish with a humdrum aquarium when you can house them in the Spillarium, a spherical 5 gallon tank that features color-changing LED lights and a spilling waterfall that plunges into a bigger fish’s ceramic maw.<\/p>\n

Though the MythBusters proved that goldfish don’t really<\/i> have a 3 second memory—they trained fish to swim through mazes and found that their times improved as they became familiar with the course—the Spillarium fish tank will constantly<\/i> make your fish swim like its life depends on it. Lest that little fishy fall into a bigger fishy’s mouth, carried to his cannibalistic fate by a stream of water that continually spills out of a hole in the tank.<\/p>\n

The waterfall effect is designed to circulate water in the aquarium; the water is purified in the base and recycled back up into the sphere. But I like to think it’s for keeping your fish on their best behavior. [Oh Gizmo<\/a>]<\/p>\n
