There is SO much you could do with those...but not as much as you could do with regular 860, or 1,000 gallon tanks.

Those are pretty sweet though!

Those are sick, they make my 50g Hex (Which is useless and why it's empty, lol) look like a Goldfish bowl.

They'd make really cool giant ant farms. ;)

Seriously though, I'd probably make them into vivariums with boa constrictors or water monitors, myself.

Those are octagon's not hexes :p

I'm actually aware of that, but i didn't realize I need to be specific in the comparison. Not much of a difference between hex and octagon shaped fish tank when talking about practicality of applications.

could you put more than one beta in one of those since there is so much space or would they still duke it out?
