both poor for actually keeping fish in them.
Wall one just isnt safe imo. Having built a fair few tank stands I know how heavy full tanks are and I just wouldnt trust one on the wall.
Coffee table tanks arent too bad, aslong as its a decent one with the top able to come off to clean it. But TBH you'd be having to do this all the time to keep it looking any good like the pics you see. And also not sure how the filtering works in these to keep it hidden.

cheers cosmo
table ones you can do yourself by buying a good size tank and putting it on the floor then a glass table on top?

link no worky.
Something like that other link would work well, as is basically just an aquarium (so have the filter, hood and lighting setup as normal) and the table around it. So wouldnt look shitty after a few days with condensation, etc.
