ABSTRACT:
An aquarium includes a tank with a canopy forming a top for the tank. A well is formed in the canopy with a ledge and a hollow hinged door fastened to the canopy and resting on the ledge. The door includes a transparent bottom panel and a removable top panel with a lighting fixture mounted on the top panel and positioned so that it illuminates the interior of the tank. The door can be opened for tasks such as cleaning the tank. The described configuration isolates the light fixture from the tank such that changing of the bulb or tube or servicing of the light fixture may be accomplished with minimum danger of electrical shocks from contact with water in the tank. A smaller port on one side of the canopy provides ready access to the tanks for feeding the fish.
