Part of their Forever! series, BCXSY designed this polygonal aquarium so that fish endlessly swim around the geometrical shape. Similar to modern-day insane asylums, which are designed with connected lap-like hallways instead of dead end hallways, the fish can swim around in circles 'till their heart's content.It's hand-crafted from hand-cut glass and you can find more info and a video at BCSXY

Not even goldfish are blessed with "goldfish memory":
NEWSFLASH ! : http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,22049,23231704-5001028,00.html
For the sake of aquarium-fish I hope they look out at us in the misconception(?) that humans also are trapped.

These started out as feeder fish meant to prepare the container but they turned out to live quite well within it. They have since produced offspring and passed on.
