Does anyone know where I could find any Pac-Man (themed) fish tank decorations?

Jul 2, 2011 2:21 PM

I'e been starting to get things together for a new fish tank, and I want to do it with a Pac-Man theme. I intend to do the background as a level, and the fishies are getting named after Pac-Man characters. I cannot however find ANY tank decorations that are even remotely Pac-Man themed, not even fruit shapes. So does anyone have any advice as to where I might find some fitting stuff?

I checked the following websites:

www.ThatFishPlace.com
www.BigAlsOnline.com
www.DrsFosterSmith.com
www.PetSmart.com
www.PetCo.com
www.Amazon.com
www.ebay.com

None had any fish items related to PacMan. I know there are frogs called Pacman -- would that work? http://www.theherpshop.com/catalog/item/7895787/8477997.htm

I would dare say such an ornament doesn't exist.

You may have to buy a Pac Man Christmas ornament (one that's safe in an aquarium environment)and get creative. There are lots of these ornaments on the interwebs.

I'd even be happy with like fruit shaped tank ornaments, and/or keys, galaxans, pretzels, and bells, as I will be doing the back of the tank with a level, and could simply paint Pac-Man onto that part.

How handy are you with a pair of scissors? You could make stick ons out of those old fashioned Colorforms.

@capguncowboy: When you checked eBay, did you look for pacman, or did you do a search specifically tailored to find pacman items for aquariums?

I note that there are several pacman board games available on eBay, and those came with plastic ghosts, and four differently colored playing pieces. There might have been other items too, I don't remember any more. We used to have one, when it was new (circa early eighties). I think the plastic parts were pretty safe, although I don't know how they'd stand up to long term immersion.

Most of the pieces for the games are too small and they generally float. I did end up finding a silicone pac-man pot holder that I'm going to use, and if I find some other stuff GREAT, if not, oh well..

I have a couple ideas, they are mostly searches on pacman toys and glass. Glass and ceramic are usually safe in aquariums. There may be something in there you can use, or it will give you other ideas on what to search for. Good luck!

drop fish food crumbs slowly, and go: "waka waka waka..."

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
