Brooklyn residents create new makeshift aquarium next to repaired fire hydrant
Briefly

"Devang Shah, one of the local residents that helps manage the pond, said volunteers soon hope to outfit the aquarium with a solar-powered filtration system to replace the current battery-powered one. They also need to acquire a heating system before winter sets in and have visions of setting up a livestream so their admirers worldwide can tune in, he said."
"Shah said it's the fourth incarnation of guerrilla pond, which was originally formed when the leaky hydrant carved out a shallow pool in broken concrete, prompting residents to fill it with store-bought goldfish."
"The steady stream from the hydrant had provided a constant source of fresh water, so a filter system wasn't really needed, he explained. 'They seemed happier over there,' Shah said, gesturing to the hydrant surrounded by a now pristine slab of concrete."
