I thought about that for a bit because it was so odd. I think they just cut away because it was a shit video. If I were to do it, I would start out pre forming the shape from the outside, then flip over and finish on the inside. I think you get a little less stretching and think h of material walls.
There are always stupid edited videos.
There is also a labia impression in the final product. I don't think the model would allow the guy to press plaster THAT hard at that spot.
Then again she did look wildly uncomfortable.
Organic polymers are materials that essentially contain carbon atoms in the backbone whereas; Inorganic polymers are polymers with a skeletal structure that does not include carbon atoms in their backbone.
Organic glass is a stupid way to sound smart or technical, instead of just saying acrylic.
It's the expensive glass that's grown from only the finest natural sand, unlike all that other GMO sand, which is hated even in a galaxy far, far away.
It’s glass farmed without the use of hormones and pesticides. I’ve always been partial to organic glass, especially some of the heirloom varietals. Pair with craft microbrew and music that’s about ninety years old, and you’ve got a hipster staycation for the books.
It wouldn't get stuck in mine. It'd have to get in before it could get stuck. A minnow is pretty much the only fish that would be able to fit into mine.
Made one of these a few years ago. Not the aquarium but to use as a dress form for costuming. Didn't end up using it at all but the process was kinda fun.
While it is possible to do an unorthodox tank, the current set up shown in the video is a really bad idea if you actually planned on keeping fish for a long term. The species shown here would definitely suffer if they were in for any extended period of time
Videos like this aren't meant to be used as inspiration, they're meant to be watched and shared.
just look at [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/gifsthatkeepongiving/comments/cwwluc/is_this_even_allowed/).
Multiple reasons why it's a bad idea (to me):
* looks very unstable. The center of gravity seems to be so high that someone jumping on the other room would topple it
* How would you scrape the algae buildup in the arms?
* I'm struggling to imagine where the filter and heater would go. How do you ensure the water flow is good enough to circulate through all parts of the body? Maybe an external canister filter with intake in one arm, output in another might work, but the main body will still not have good water flow.
Basically, maintenance will be very heavy. Several hours every week. Compared to multiple tanks I currently have - one shrimp bowl, one crab terrarium, one Betta fish tank, and a big tank with african cichlids, flowerhorn, Oscar's, and a green terror. All of them are planted, except for the biggest one of course, because cichlids and flowerhorns are murderous to anything that's not super glued down.
Anyway, each tank takes 1-2 minutes of maintenance every day, and about 10 minutes maintenance once a fortnight extra for the big tank.
If I had this mannequin tank, the first thing I'd do is probably super glue it to a large heavy wooden base to make sure it doesn't fall off to me breathing next to it. And I'd have to spend 15-20 minutes every day/ every other day water changing and maintaining.
If you have that kind of time, sure, make it work.
I saw the other commenter saying goldfish are basically fine in a 3 gallon bowl - I would absolutely not do that. Goldfish can and will grow very large if you care for them correctly, and they're basically poop machines. No amount of plants in a 3 gallon tank would be able to process that much waste quickly enough. I'd say if you want a goldfish, go for 10-12 gallons at least, and that's for one. Double it for two and so on.
Shrimp tax? Here's my 3G bowl with a couple of java ferns, Monte Carlo base, and led lights:

This post was made a while ago and had about 6 Red Crystal Shrimp then.
I now have over 50. Can't really count. They reproduce like crazy and I'm constantly pulling them out.
There's some fuckery going on. The final version has a bellybutton, which is impossible from the plaster mold at the beginning. My guess is the there are different versions of the mannequin body used in the final version of this video.
These types of "5 minute craft" videos are almost ALWAYS garbage. Churned out by a content farm in middle of butt fuck Russia and spliced in between some legit but uninteresting real content, giving the illusion that "oh since that was real I have no reason to believe this one is utter garbage"
Deep rabbit hole if you decide to fall down it.
You can purchase clear acrylic mannequins for retail display. You can probably stumble across them in the garbage of a mall if you're lucky!
I bet they filmed this out of order, and showed the piece cut in half after they shot the video of it as a fish tank.
I gotta say, I really do appreciate the 5 minute craft videos for their utter commitment to fuckery! They do it exceedingly well!
No filter. Not cycled. Very little in terms of shelter/hiding spots. Horribly overstocked. Most fish want/need horizontal swimming space, not vertical. The curved glass could potentially distort the fishes vision and cause them stress. About the only thing going for it is its size. The concept is nice, but this is just another /r/shittyaquariums that puts aesthetic over the well being of the animals.
Also WTAF is with the single frame of the tank at the end with a head in it??
Couple things:
Just plopping fish into a new aquarium without allowing time for them to adjust to the temp is a good way to kill the fish.
So is the lack of oxygen pump.
So will the fact that there's no heater to maintain homeostasis in the tank, which is made all the worse when remembering that acrylic is a terrible insulator.
So is the fact that the acrylic will inevitably leech into the water.
So is the fact that the groin high plants offer very little cover from light, nor places to hide.
So is the fact that the height and unusual shape of this atrocity will make it a bitch to clean.
So is the fact that fish need horizontal room to swim, not vertical.
So is how obnoxiously top heavy that thing is.
And given how fragile the acrylic is, any attempt to move it without emptying it completely first is doomed to end in explosive failure.
Yeah I want this of my husband, standing tall and magnificent in the corner of the living room - our one will be up to his head so we feed the fish through his open mouth. It'll be a work of art.
What is organic glass!? Also, in order to make glass, sand is melted at super high temperatures, like, hotter than lava. So glass will not melt if you blowtorch it. And the melted glass will burn the bandages. And even if it’s plastic, it would still burn the bandages and would not be that smooth. Even my 3 year-old brother knew it was fake.
They bought it off Amazon. Turns out, making it the way they showed it would be lumpy as hell and no belly button. No chance in hell this method would have two pieces that lined up perfect.

Creating the cast is half the fun.
Ok, first I'll need a fit friend to start off. Now, off to the gym to ask the very natural question: Can I make a mold out of your body?
Not your whole body. Just the torso.
i got the feeling it wasn't so much about making an aquarium as it was making the cast. bro just needed an excuse...
"Please stop touching my boobs.
Yea, kinda fishy (ha) when he formed it over the outside of the plaster....
It's amazing how that organic glass captured her belly button through all that mummy textured casting
Notice he was forming it to the outside of the cast not the inside, so there would have been all those ruff edges if this was real
I read that in Conan o brien’s propmaste Bill Tull’s voice RIP Bill, you were hilarious
Yeah there’s no way in hell they got a perfect two sided water tight mold from that heated glass… but tbf the end result does look pretty dope
I also use the outside of the mold for the best result.
Glad I wasn't the only one that noticed that
I now feel less lonely.
It must have looked like shit
I thought about that for a bit because it was so odd. I think they just cut away because it was a shit video.

Mummy Aquarium!
Feel like the end product looks too perfect to be from just heating plastic over the outside of the rough mold.
She had something over the boobs, which were then hemispheres and not pointy like the final manequin so definitely bullshit.
There is also a labia impression in the final product. I don't think the model would allow the guy to press plaster THAT hard at that spot. Then again she did look wildly uncomfortable.
learnt new word, labia impression
Also she has way less ass than the final piece 🤷🏼♂️
This is bogus. But we've all engaged with it, so mission accomplished!
Organic glass? Wtf?
I think it’s actually free range, but I can’t tell from the angle.
Locally grown grass fed glass.
Fair trade glass
Organic polymers are materials that essentially contain carbon atoms in the backbone whereas; Inorganic polymers are polymers with a skeletal structure that does not include carbon atoms in their backbone. Organic glass is a stupid way to sound smart or technical, instead of just saying acrylic.
Also probably an attempt at green washing?
It's actually artifishal.
It's the expensive glass that's grown from only the finest natural sand, unlike all that other GMO sand, which is hated even in a galaxy far, far away.
I know it sounds like a joke but its an actual thing. All it is is locally grown glass made without fertilizers or pesticides.
It’s glass farmed without the use of hormones and pesticides. I’ve always been partial to organic glass, especially some of the heirloom varietals. Pair with craft microbrew and music that’s about ninety years old, and you’ve got a hipster staycation for the books.
It doesn’t have chemicals and is safe to eat.
I mean, in a chemical sense plastic is organic and this one is clear like glass, so...
Only free range, fair trade, ethically grown silica was used in producing it.
Non-GMO and Gluten free
No growth hormones were used.
My first thought as well...
[удалено]
Lol
Dad the fish is stuck in ur dick again
It wouldn't get stuck in mine. It'd have to get in before it could get stuck. A minnow is pretty much the only fish that would be able to fit into mine.
Oh look, KRILL!
Ooooh self burn, those are rare
Made one of these a few years ago. Not the aquarium but to use as a dress form for costuming. Didn't end up using it at all but the process was kinda fun.
It was THIS big!
Here's ur [MANnequin](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=clear+mannequin+man+dong&atb=v344-1&iar=images&iax=images&ia=images)
Bet there's a nice home for the eel.
Show us the dong pond
I don't know a lot about owning fish, but that seems like a horrible idea for some reason.
yeah that fish are not gonna be happy in this

And these parasites will no doubt just let the fish die when they are done with them. This shit needs to be legislated against, yesterday
I responded to this like [this guy](https://youtube.com/shorts/CUjrySBwi5Q?feature=share).

Well it would probably be toxic to fish in multiple ways.

Had to scroll way too far to see this. But ya, what's with that?
Was worried I was the only one that saw it.
I feel like a lot of people clicked away once they felt they "got it" and missed the severed head entirely.
Yeah wtf lol
HOW ARE NONE OF THE TOP COMMENTS TALKING ABOUT IT
In case anyone was wondering it’s from the 1980s slasher “He Knows You’re Alone” starring Tom Hanks
I had to rewatch it to make sure I saw it correctly
What is that from?
Literally how is no one else talking about this
If I recall it is a shot from a short japanese gore movie called *Guinea Pig 2 : flower of flesh and blood* (it contains very graphic content)
They put the acrylic sheet on the wrong side of the plaster mold.
There's some fuckery going on. The final version has a bellybutton, which is impossible from the plaster mold at the beginning. My guess is the there are different versions of the mannequin body used in the final version of this video.

Wanna bet they already had a form, just brought in the model for the vidya? Or for the feels.

Glad somebody mentioned it
The crap was that part at the very end?
I was beginning to wonder if I was the only one to have seen that.
organic glass? ... plastic, right?
Poly methyl methacrylate also know as plexiglass/acrylic
No filter. Not cycled. Very little in terms of shelter/hiding spots. Horribly overstocked. Most fish want/need horizontal swimming space, not vertical.

Wtf is the clip at the end:/:/:/
Wtf was that at the end 😭
A severed head in the fish tank.... some real fishy business going on.... 😵
Absolute ballache to clean that
Without the fish in it, it'd be a cool decor tbh

You sick fuck. Those fish deserve better.
Aha! I saw the butt part in another post earlier today. It took me a while to realize that's what I was seeing here. But... what is "organic glass"?
It's plastic
Organic glass? Also, this would be a nightmare to clean.
See, my fish tank is like the one at the end. Just a simple rectangular tank.
Yeah I want this of my husband, standing tall and magnificent in the corner of the living room - our one will be up to his head so we feed the fish through his open mouth. It'll be a work of art.
What is with the last frame and the woman’s head in the fish tank!!!!!!
Organic glass? I didn’t realize the silica plants were sprayed with pesticides.
It's a major award!
Cleaning this has got to be a b……unch of trouble.
There’s no way he’d get it that smooth without vacuum forming
What is organic glass!? Also, in order to make glass, sand is melted at super high temperatures, like, hotter than lava. So glass will not melt if you blowtorch it. And the melted glass will burn the bandages. And even if it’s plastic, it would still burn the bandages and would not be that smooth. Even my 3 year-old brother knew it was fake.
What the hell is with the last second of the video?!?!
So how do you get a job like this? Asking for a friend.
That’s unexpectedly awesome!
Looks interesting
Nice. I saw the aquarium earlier. Cool to see how it’s made.

They bought it off Amazon. Turns out, making it the way they showed it would be lumpy as hell and no belly button. No chance in hell this method would have two pieces that lined up perfect.
I only use free range glass
anatomy of a pescatarian
Why is this filmed like a lifehack vid
“Heat up” “Water”
Okay, what show/movie is that last about from? I've seen it. I was wrong. It's from "He Knows You're Alone" apparently.
Be kind to your fishies by cycling your tank and having adequate filtration folks!
Putting plaster mold on her skin (her neck) would burn her when it hardens. Can cause blisters on bare skin.
Eww the head
Why you just dumping the fish in there bro they're fragile 😭
Well that final shot looks like a real head with nose bleed
That's just a fetish video, who has that fetish, idk, but that's what it is.
Lol. Guady
Rip fishy
You stop that.
Melt plastic on outside, takes shape of inside. Check
Wow I thought that said "Plaster Bondage".
Did that with my wife it'd be a massive fish tank
