Home renovators looking to bring life to the smallest room in their home now have the chance -- with a toilet that doubles as an aquarium. The Fish 'n Flush is a clear two-piece toilet tank that replaces a standard toilet tank, with a see-through aquarium wrapping itself around a conventional toilet tank. Reuters/Handout

Would you buy one? I wouldn't. Who want's to look at fish while "taking care of business?"

Given some of the toilets I've seen in Japan... it gets a *meh* from me.

I've seen a much better one a few months ago. Same "concept" except it looked less childish; was very slick.

I voted no, but only because I don't want to have to feed them.

How do you use the toilet!? Surely you'd be facing the opposite direction?

If one is a male, one supposes one would stand and face the tank when urinating.

But, sitting backwards on the toilet is so much funnier.

Love it. Kitchy, weird and downright fun I say. Where can I get one???

Wouldn't bother me sitting. If I was standing, might be a little weird, but I could get used to it.

Dude....

I wouldn't buy one. Ever. A regular toilet's good enough.

That's pretty cool. Combine it with one of those Japanese "super" toilets & it would be unbeatable.

Is that a Spongebob Squarepants in the tank?

My sister-in-law has a toilet seat and cover that's made of clear plastic and has tropical fish toys in it. It's pretty cool, as far as it goes.

In our house it's the kitchen. (Just to clarify, I wouldn't want it in the kitchen.)

I suppose. But I wouldn't really class that as using the toilet. As one needn't neccessarily use any of the mechanations.

Perhaps we can just agree that backwards toilet using makes a funny image?

Something else to clean.

Nah. The last thing I want is the cat spending even more time in the bathroom.

... one apartment I was looking to renting... the smallest room was the bedroom. seriously, the closet was larger than the bedroom which could barely fit a bed inside.

Apparently you're not a fan of guys flushing after taking a piss...

As for the toilet...that looks tacky as hell...I would absolutely not have that thing in my bathroom
