Only if you have four flowerhorns, two arrowanas, three pacus, five plecos, and a few giant adult goldfish. :) right? right? Cause that's what people living in Japan do.

It's not a "Japanese Style"... It's north Americans hearing an unknown language in a youtube video showing an overstocked tank.

I don't think it has a ton to do with Youtube, or people not knowing asian languages.

I think it has alot to do with Monster Fish Keeper books. While this style of tank can see in other countrys in asia, it was covered with many many examples(basically in 8 volumes almost all being basically this style tank) in these books which are from japan. Plus japan gets what are some of the top fish in the world. Perhaps that's why we think of it as more of a japan phenomina..

You were right about the rest, alot of it is because of space constraints. "African cichlids" is in no way applicable to this style tank though I don't think.

That would be North American style.

Yeah someone in asia would never ever do that.. that's totally a north american thing..



(This was not posted to start a flame war about this tank being horrible. We've been there done that on this site before. Just to prove a point it's not a "North American" thing.)
