Pay Phone Tank

[JoshuA c]

My neighbors were in the pay phone business but because of cellphones, they have all of them in their house now and are giving them away. I picked one up and the coin mec works, but the smart board is gone so i can't use the phone as a phone. There is a decent amount of room in side the compartment f i take every thing out. So, obviously, i start thinking about making it into a tank. It would be cool if i could get it to work.

I was thinking about doing a filter that goes up on top of the tank, just really small, and then a DIY led fixture for lighting.

I don't really know what ecosystem i would make in this tank.

Also i was thinking of taking out the coin mec, making a slot for coins to go into the vault chamber. I have the keys and everything for that.

Any comments or advice are welcome.

Sounds like you watched the show "Tanked"

It' be neat. Have you seen the one they did on that show Tanked? I know its a terrible show in the sense that they don't seem to care for the animals well or offer up any info on how to care for them, and honestly I don't want to turn your thread into an "omfgweallhatetanked!!" explosion.

 

here's what they did for maybe an idea?
