Glass Aquarium Tanks

These are self-contained units which plug into a standard socket and into which you plug your aquarium equipment, similar to an extension cord. They have the advantage of being able to be used wherever needed around the house, for instance with power saws hedge trimmers etc. but are quite expensive. The only one Ive seen in Canberra was over $100.

Lower maintenance and no significant expense of upkeep (no air stones or pump diaphragms)

Most occupy comparatively less
