ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an aquarium designed to simulate a television set for aesthetic reasons. The invention involves providing an aquarium assembly having a one piece frame member with a floor section and four vertical wall sections including a front wall section. All of the wall sections of the frame member have openings and transparent sheet material for covering the openings are attached to the inside of the wall sections in fluid sealing relation. Decorator panels for selected ones of the openings other than the opening of the front wall section are provided having respectively the same sizes as the selected openings and are attachable as covers for the selected openings by press fitting from the exteriors of the three vertical wall sections. The aquarium has a hood and the decorator panels have external coverings which harmonize with the external coverings of the frame member and the hood. The panels have aesthetically choosen internal coverings which produce a desired visual effect when viewed through the opening of the front wall. In the front part of the aquarium, for viewing purposes, is a bubble bar tank having closely spaced side walls of a transparent material. A perforated tube in the bubble bar tank extends horizontally along the bottom thereof and has a series of air outlet ports. An air feeding tube is connected to the bubble tube for supplying pressurized air thereto. Air escaping from the bubble bar outlet ports bubbles up through the liquid in the bubble bar tank to produce a desired viewing effect.
