You would have to keep the water level in both tanks at all times or it would brake the suction. Also I would think it would make it very hard to do water changes because of that. You would have to re-suction it every time.

The bridge would keep the water in both tanks at the same level, at least until it dopped low enough to empty the bridge. Water changes would be easy enough if the ends of the bridge extended far enough down into the water.

Good morning. Looks a bit scary to me! It's not something I would strive for myself but it sure is neat to view.

I like the extreme version. That would be awesome in our house! I could have my fishies everywhere!

However, the "princess" protested and I'm not quite that mechanically inclined.

if the hamster tubes do let some water leak out, what would I use to seal it?

Aquarium-safe silicone would probably be your best bet.
