Fishbowl Shaped Like A World Map Is A Trip For Goldfish.

Designboom (who promoted the design competition) featured this fabulous fish tank concept, World Trip, which won a 2012 TIFF award. The clear acrylic tank was designed by Takuro Yamamoto and is made to emulate a world map through which the little fish can meander.

The First Affordable Desktop Tank Designed Specifically For Jellyfish.

Jellyfish Art has designed the first affordable desktop Jellyfish Tank. As easy to maintain as a desktop aquarium, the modern looking tank is especially designed for jellyfish since they tend get sucked into the filtration intakes and get liquefied in fish tanks.




The new Desktop Jellyfish Tank has been seen in WIRED Magazine, The New York Times and Gizmodo and is now looking for funding and support via kickstarter.



Pre-order the Desktop Jellyfish Tank for a pledge of $350 or more and you will be guaranteed to receive it once the first batch of tanks has been manufactured. Kickstarter donors get a $50 voucher redeemable towards the Beginner's Package (normally $149), which includes 3 Jellyfish and a package of Frozen Food.



Support the project by buying one here on kickstarter

You can also purchase the tank only, jelly fish, and other accessories like color LED lights, snails and hermit crabs from their site.
