Bringing Serene Nature to Your Daily Lives

Flying high and looking afar, bird is the angel of great hope, bringing us the joy of love, pureness and freedom.  Looking at an aquarium from the bird’s eye view, we shall exclaim in delight at the beautiful aqua world filled with love of nature and life.

Bird’s Eye Aquarium is a table aquarium that allows you to showcase aquatic scenery from the top clearly and embrace adorable aquatic lives in your daily life in a way that has never been done before.

Designed to be with no air layer between the top glass plate and the water surface in the viewing tank, Bird’s Eye Aquarium allows fish to swim all the way up to the top glass plate.  It looks like that they are very close to you!  With the table aquarium placed in the center of your room, it simply transforms your space into a lively yet tranquil gallery, allowing you to experience and enjoy the beauty and love of nature and life within a normal and everyday setting.

Unprecedented Design

Bird’s Eye Aquarium is a table aquarium with a crystal clear view on top, which you’ll find nowhere else!  Thanks to our own patented design, once the water pump is on, the water in the viewing tank rises all the way to the underside of the tempered glass top, removing the air in between and flattening the water surface.  With no image distortion, you can enjoy a clear bird's eye view of the inhabitants of this unique table aquarium.

(Patent Obtained #PCT/JP2012/066448)

Bird’s Eye Aquarium is an all-in-one aquarium that comes in

①  Tempered Glass Top
②  Acrylic Viewing Tank
③  LED Light Gutter
④  Electrical Compartment*
⑤  Filter Space
⑥  Piping System
⑦  Base with Wheels*

* Exception in some models

,

Bird's Eye Aquarium is available in around 20 standard color combinations.  We also offer customized colors for those who are looking for a perfect fit for their interior.

No one makes a table aquar
ium like Bird’s Eye Aquarium.

Powerful Filter Space

The health of fish – the real user – is something that we must not omit.  We designed Bird’s Eye Aquarium by keeping an almost 1:1 volume ratio of the filter space to the viewing tank in order to maintain a high filtering power of the aquarium.  Fish live healthily in the aquarium, and we – the fish keepers – can enjoy a hassle-free aquatic showcase with family, friends, customers and associates in our daily lives.

① Once the water pump in the filter space is switched on, clean water in filter space is pumped up to the viewing tank via the water supply piping system, rising the water level in the viewing tank until it reaches the underneath of the top glass plate seemlessly to provide a crystal clear top view.

② Excessive water in the viewing tank overflows to the table flange, where it falls to the filter space at the bottom.

③ The flowing water creates a large surface area which allows oxygen to dissolve. This is how oxygenation occurs.

④ Fish waste and uneaten food, which will prevent filtration from taking place effectively, is filtered here, by wool.

⑤ The water flows through a number of filtering compartments, in where filtering materials are placed to remove toxic substances in the water biologically.

⑥ The filtration process ends in the final compartment where the water pump is located, which pumps the filtered water back to the viewing tank. This is another circulation.

Personalized Layout

Designing a layout from the top is just as simple as making a picture.  With Bird’s Eye Aquarium, everyone could become a designer. 



Bird’s Eye Aquarium showcases any possible layout to be viewed from the top.  You could just design a layout of your own and display it inside your living room, office, shop or restaurant.

Infinite Possibilities

Each unit is being made to order by our craftsmen in Japan, marking it a piece of art customized to your need.  Bird’s Eye Aquarium is not only a high-quality aquarium, but a gorgeous piece of furniture that you will be proud to show to anyone.  It can be:

  • A lighting table in a restaurant

  • A display stand in a public aquarium

  • An eye-catching showcase in a shop selling waterproof products

  • An educating tool in a school

  • A luxury decoration in a shopping mall

  • A welcoming area in an office

  • A topic in a family

The possibilities are just infinite.

Our Ultimate Goal

We are aquarists as well as innovators.  We invented Bird’s Eye Aquarium, which is featured with an amazing clear top view.  The reason why we invented and put this beautiful art into business is that we love fish and we hope that more people, even laymen, could enjoy the precious moment of watching fish in their daily life, resulting in developing a character of love – love of animals, love of human beings and love of the nature.  Yet, this is just our concept and we need substantial global support to make our wish come true.

Risks and Challenges

We have spent years designing and improving this innovative product by trial and error.  Although Bird’s Eye Aquarium may be an excellent idea and concept, when it comes into commercialization, problems appear one after one.  However, since that we are the innovator in the industry, there are just no existing products or business that could be seen as an example or a rule to be followed.  We have to find creative solutions for each and every issue occurred.

  • Design – Different persons have different taste.  We have got the bird’s eye concept but we need more resources so that we could design more fashionable products in terms of shape and exterior material in order to suit the various needs of our worldwide customers.
  • Cost – We have completed around 90% of the design and engineering of our products which are all made by our Japanese craftsmen one by one.  This leads to an extremely high production cost.  We have to shorten this pre-product phase as soon as possible in order to deliver a full-consumer-grade product to our fans all over the world.
  • Packing – We could make nice products, but yet we still need to provide packings that are protective enough for international delivery.  However, in order to do it in a professional way, we have to first increase the production scale in consideration of cost-effectiveness.
  • Production Flow – This is a brand new product that has no precedent.  We have made the structural design but we have to decide the production flow all on our own.  Up till now, we have already set up some rules and guidelines but yet, we need more experience from real production in order to optimize our operations.
  • Sales Channels – Now we are using expensive courier to deliver our sizable products around the globe one by one to our customers, but our ultimate goal is to find global buyers who believe in our concept and are willing to purchase our products in bulk and resell them to customers in his or her local market as our distributors.

Ways You Can Help

We need your support in order to move on.  In return, we would provide you our brand new Bird’s Eye Aquarium so that you could enjoy watching fish swimming in it as an early adopter.  Please do share the fun with your family and friends.
