The Ultimate Goldfish Tank

September 13, 2012 - by specialK

In Japan there is an art collective that have been installing goldfish tank phone booths on the streets of Osaka. The name of the five member collective is Kingyobu, which translates to "The Goldfish" in English. The tanks/phone booths are interesting, but the installations leave me with a few questions: How long can the tanks last? Are they going to let the fish starve or will they be fed? What about maintenance? And, the main question, why is Kingyobu doing this?
