I have an antique chest and a 60 gal aqaurium I could blend into an original masterpiece.

Just a thought. I was going to incorporate the chest into our yard. I'm out of land and happy with what is.

Just a thought.

sounds awesome. but I never carved an aquarium. besides, I dont want to make everything I own. sticking one in an old chest sounds very cool though.

I've been looking for examples... but no such luck.
I've seen wooden chest that were made into aquariums as well as plastic children's aquariums. But of course... you never find one when you want one.

There is a someone here in the Denver area listing this 55 gallon treasure chest aqaurium on Craigslist ($300 OBO). Looks homemade, but pretty cool.

Is this your aquarium? I have a metal framed one just like it that I would love to modify to look like the ones above. The hood is missing a piece so it's not complete, so it's a great contender for modification. Right now it's housing some fish and live plants. Here's the pic before the fish and plants:

Hello everyone, I am new to Tiki Central and noticed that some of you are looking for treasure chest aquariums. My husband actually makes them out of wood, they hold a 20 gallon tank. We have made many custom chests as well to suit someones specifications for tank size, wood color etc. We have just recently obtained a website http://www.aquariumchest.com we don't have pictures up yet but they will be soon. Let me know if anyone would like me to email them pictures I would be happy to do that.
