When I was growing up in the late 60's early 70's before Green was even heard of. My Dad turned our T.V. that looks just like this picture, into a fish aquarium. Loads of fun that was having our fish in our converted T.V. It was so cool! Just an idea and take the toxic stuff and dispose of it properly. Well this is a funny topic.
