The aquarium is supported end to end at center, front to back and under all sides by vertical supports, a base and top while still providing ample room for storage. The interlocking of the elements prevents movement of the aquarium under load. A foam layer between the aquarium and stand compensate for unevenness and vibration. The stand assembles and disassembles without tools or fasteners and stacks flat when not in use. The removable multifunctional decorative facade is constructed of various materials that provide decor and functionality such as storage, doors, folding sides, graphics, print, and perform functions that enable one to play games of skill or chance inside the aquarium where coin is exchanged for play and the controls are on the façade.
