67 Incredible Aquarium Innovations

From Mermaid Bars to Interactive Pet Habitats

— March 3, 2011 — Lifestyle
The amazing aquarium innovations go far beyond your basic four-walled fish tanks. These cool creations take on a variety of styles, shapes and placements. There is the two-story modern fish condo, that provides the ultimate in luxurious habitats for your swimming pets. I suggest taking a look at the Muuto Nouveau Pet cat dome that includes an overhead fish tank, allowing your furry felines and fish friends to play safely in close quarters.

Of course, there are all the incredible spots around the world that feature some of the most breathtaking aquarium innovations I have ever come across, such as the dance floor aquarium and underwater restaurants. Check out the slideshow to see the fascinating aquariums I've mentioned and many more.
