SUPPLEMENT TO McHENRY r. >xh*a /o y • nothing "fishy" about aquarium breakthrough A dramatic new inven­ tion which promises to be a boon to gift-givers, den decorators and fish-fanciers alike has just begun ap­ pearing on the shelves of department and specialty stores throughout the U.S. The invention, light years ahead of all other technol­ ogy in the field, is an aquar­ ium that has virtually elim­ inated the tubing, wiring, algae and cleanup chores normally associated with enjoying tropical fish. The result of three years of research by the industry- leading Metaframe Corpo­ ration, the new "Living World" "UniQuarium" eliminates virtually every problem that has turned, off many potential aquarium hobbyists over the years. - This new product frees the' home aquarium from its heating, air filtration and related equipment by plac­ ing all apparatus out of sight in a drawer under­ neath the handsome hexa- PLAINDEALER - PAGE 23 • n r.« \f v: o gonal tank. The "Wood- tone" tank stands free and clear with fish -- not wiring and tubing--visible through every square inch of glass. The unique system of light­ ing the aquarium from the bottom produces a near stage-like effect that en­ hances the beauty of fish and fish tank alike. All tubes and wires are contained inside' the drawer, and run into the tank through its bottom, where, out of sight, the heating, filtering, and clean­ ing units do their work. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1977 ?*the resultant aquaritim 15 is both a decorator's and a hobbyist's dream. The 18" high tank can be used as a room divider, conversation centerpiece, or as the focal point for almost any room in the house. There are no complex procedures involved, and maintenance is minimal, as well. The new system has been designed to automate heat, light and filtration, making proper mainten­ ance of the fishes' life- support systems autc and virtually foolpr If vou are giving house plants for gifts, give the more popular varieties that grow with just an occasion­ al watering and feeding. Creeping Charlie, philo- dendrons, jade plants, san- sevieria, dieffenbachia and African violets grow easily in most regions of the coun­ try in the average indoor environment. House plants do not have to. be elegantly wrapped. Just wrap the pot in pretty foil paper and put a bow on it.
