fishbites Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 At a unit price of $121 everyone will be buying them!!! The tank is a bit narrow but at 1.3litres capacity isn't that much smaller than beanie boxes and it does have a feeding reminder and a heater! Imagine jarring all your fry in them! feeding alarms going off all the time and at only $121 per fish.... you'd have to be crazy... or rich and crazy!

delyall Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Wow Ive also seen a betta tank with a handle 'so your child can take their fishy friends wherever they go' *headdesk* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 That is too much. Will people actually buy them? I've also seen tanks for Bettas that double as speaker for an iPod! Ridiculous! The fish will NOT have enough room, plus I bet it will be vibrating from the music. Here is the link: HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skitch Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Am I the only one that thinks this is kind of good idea? Yeah the tank is a bit small.. but seriously, I'd much rather see bettas in offices in something with a heater, filter and light rather than those horrid vase/bowl things with a really narrow opening where they are just left to rot . Part of my job requires that I visit alot of offices around SA and I see some pretty sad looking neglected fish.. they'd be much better off in something like this (shame it's not a touch bigger though!).

fishbites Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 They'd be much better off in a small Aqua One or Hailea or simlar tanks to this..... and they are much larger, better looking and not much different in price to that cheap plastic toy tank....

Sarah Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 You are right Wayne. If people want to spend a lot of money for a little tank then why not get that one? For $100 though, I could get a 33L tank, heater, sponge filter, air pump and a few little things I may need like air-line tubing! Still.. I cannot believe the things people make! Also adding electronics to water? That can also be a bad idea. I'm not even going to start with the awful things, as you all know what they are anyways.

fishbites Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Also adding electronics to water? That can also be a bad idea. You mean like a thermostatically controlled heater? an R2D2 tank??? LOL.... time for a new movie... The Betta Bites Back..... or The Revenge of the Betta....

Sarah Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 I know, when I told my mum about this months ago, I also said heaters.. but plugging cameras into tanks? They aren't usually waterproof. But you are right there Wayne. I wonder who thought of the R2D2 tank... a HUGE Star Wars fan, and fish guy. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
