Fishy Skybridge
Back in my FOLR+cheato days, I built this up to link my 90gal with my 55gal. The fish really seemed to love it, many would take the trip back and forth about 50-100+ times a day. They would actaully have fishy traffic jams in there occasionally, and eventually establish a little fish pecking order (the large trigger was generally not challenged much).
I mounted that little stopcock in the top for easily sucking the air out (and hence water in). I know, I know, red silicon was all that I had at the time, and on my budget, I just make do with what i have.
The lawnmower and snails would keep the tube clean for me, and it was really a blast to have the fish hanging out in the tube over your head watching you eat dinner.

A fun idea, however there is a negative pressure issue with this setup. The water in the highest part of the bridge is at a lower pressure than normal seawater. Having said that, we doubt the minimal height difference will produce enough of a pressure differential to disturb the fish. If the tube had risen to ceiling height then there might be a problem.
