King of Queens. S6:E12

They were going back in time to when they first bought a house. There was an "older style" house with this hex countertop tank somewhat built into the wall.

The Highlander (1986) Coming home     Connor Macleod's bowfront aquarium

 

Many of you have probably seen the commercial for the special sunglasses that allows you to see the Bald Eagle on the otherwise blank card.  Look at the Aquarium again.  Do you see something else?  ...no, its not an eagle.

Just curious.

Really surprised no one has mentioned the aquariums of the Bond villains yet. The Aquarium waterbed in "Diamonds Are Forever", and the aquariums of "Dr. No", and Karl Stromberg's aquarium from "The Spy Who Loved Me". Then again those were a long time ago, yet they rerun frequently.

Not TV but similarly the other day I was in a professional training by Zoom and one of the other participants had a tank I could clearly see--rimless, lots of plants! I was dying to ask them about it but no....had to settle for the glimpse in the background. Definitely made me curious about the person who had it more/differently than if I had not seen it!

For anyone with small kids. In the Bluey episode "Octopus", Chloe's dad has a big planted aquarium with what looks like one male betta and a school of neon tetras.

When I saw it I just thought "Hey, someone actually does aquariums!"

You can also see it in the background of this video at around 1:15
