Default New fish tank.

Hello,

I am about to setup a Marine Fish Tank in my hall, about 30 inches wide, and
24 inches deep, sitting on a 24 inch deep stand.
Do you think the tank will drive my cats nuts and really annoy them? I
really want it, but will avoid if it is cruel on the cats.

Regards,

Gary.

Our cat has never given my aquarium a second glance, course he totally
ignored the wife's birds also.

Cruel? No way! It will be very entertaining for them. Be
absolutely sure they can't open it up and go fishing.
Eventually they may tire of it when they realize they
can't get the fish.

Our cats could care less about the fish. The oldest cat is mildly afraid of
the fish, she has a strong aversion to water. The young cat looks at them,
but that's about it.

Ditto here. We actually set up a chair near the aquarium when we
first adopted our cats, thinking they might like to watch the fish,
but they never showed any interest at all. Probably for the best
