Weird Tanks – The Fish Tank Toilet
A Chinese firm has come up with the perfect solution for pet-loving families who don’t have the space to keep animals: the fish tank toilet.
The toilet has three separate tanks – one for water flowing in, one for water flowing out, and a third for fish and underwater plants – ensuring that the fish always have enough water to swim in, and are never sucked into the bowl.
The firm behind the toilets say they are ideal for Chinese families seeking company for their only children, but without the room for a stand-alone fish tank or bigger pet.
They are also environmentally friendly – because the flushing tank has been reduced to make space for the fish tank, the toilet uses far less water than similar models.
The LED device that lights the fish tank can also be used instead of bathroom lighting, cutting electricity bills. [Via]
