ABSTRACT:
The combination of two aquarium fish tanks bridged by a plastic bridge tube is disclosed. The bridge tube is shaped to accommodate the insertion of the ends of said bridge tubes in each of the fish tanks. A pump and filter are connected to a narrow diameter tube to force water and air in one of the tanks to flow to the other tank and then back to the first tank through the plastic bridge tube to equalize the water level in both fish tanks, and to enhance the flow of fish through the plastic bridge tube. The combination of tanks may have two plastic brackets supporting the bridge tube. One of each of the brackets is coupled to the top of each fish tank. The plastic brackets are shaped with a vertical planar surface and horizontal planar surface, each surface having a substantially semi-circular cut out in the planar surface of substantially the same diameter as the diameter of the fish tank bridge tube to provide stable support of the bridge tube both above and within the aquarium fish tanks being bridged.
