"self-cleaning" Betta tank

[dankdabe]

Definitely overpriced but an ingenious idea to have a built-in siphon

Yeah, RIDICULOUSLY overpriced, but it does seem to be a rather ingenious idea... though, what's the deal with the two males in the same tank??? Sigh...

Anyway... yeah... pretty neat idea, it looks like.

those 2 males were in separate tanks.

and if only this could be used for the main world.....oh wait, they outdated undergravel filters!

It's a great idea, but a tank that small is practicably tourchure for a fish of any size

This reminds me of an idea I had with those glass beverage dispensers. They have a lever pull down to empty the water, then you refill it. It would make a great bettaquarium. Even shrimp or other nano tank species. It would also be bigger for the fish and cheaper for the person. See? http://www.potterybarn.com/products/glass-drink-dispenser/?pkey=cpitchers-decanters

It might be a sign it is overpriced if Pottery Barn has a bigger and cheaper container

Fairly easy to do if you are willing to drill a tank. But the bigger the tank, the harder to do.

I have a pvc pipe over my tanks with hoses attached. I just roll out the hose, turn the knob to open and leave it to drain. It stops at the end of the hose. Then I attach that hose end to my faucet and refill. Close the knob, roll the hose and wait for the next w/c day. =D
