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.

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.
