fishbowls

Round pet tanks

Fishbowls are glass containers, typically round and open-topped, used to keep pet fish.

The transparent, exposed nature of a fishbowl extends to any space where someone is on display or lacks privacy: Living in a small town is like living in a fishbowl.

A fishbowl can also be a group discussion format where participants sit in a central circle while others observe from outside.
