The lights are cool, but the fish are by-catch, a terrible ecological waste. I don't have a problem with ethical consumption of animals, but with puffers they're turned into lamps just because they happen to be there. I also have a problem with dried seahorses and the like for souvenirs. I've kept brackish Figure 8 puffers in the past, and damn, they're surprisingly intelligent. I'm not going to begrudge anyone who has a lamp like this, but yeah, I'd like a good fake alternative.
