fish bowls
Spherical pet tanks
Fish bowls are round glass containers for keeping pet fish, typically goldfish.
The shape offers a clear view from all angles but provides poor conditions for fish—limited oxygen exchange and no filtration.
Figuratively, a fish bowl describes any situation of high visibility with no privacy: Living in a small town is like living in a fish bowl.
Also spelled fishbowls.
