Wine glass fish

I am not telling anyone else to do this only relaying my experience today. A friend of mine asked me to come over to take a look at his fish in QT. He thought it had the start of lateral line erosion. Not being able to get a clear view of his fish I came up with this great, crazy and dumb idea. I asked him if he had a large very clear wine glass. He did I told him I would take responsibility for the fishes demise. He caught the fish put it in the wine glass (with tank water of course) and low and behold we had a captive in a small environment and an exceptionally clear and close up view.
My fellow hobbyists take it for what it is

Yes it did and with all due respect to cat woman adding to her post count it works very well in getting a good look at your fish

Actually it is a great idea. Curvature of the glass gave you magnification! I would suggest getting cheap plastic glasses in the future to avoid cuts/breakage.
