That must be pretty mind-blowing for the fish!
I bet they’re all - Wow! I can’t wait to get back and tell all the guys about this!
But sadly, that’s probly not going to happen…

ELI5: Why the need to maintain pressure? If you just bought this fish at the market, it was (presumably) in an unpressurized pool. Or is this just to make sure there’s enough oxygen saturated into the water for the poor fellow?

I’m seeing an extra business opportunity for “pet fish” carriers. No longer will pet fish be confined to staring at the same four walls, they can join you on adventures!
Y’know…like cat carriers.

It’s probably a worthwhile investment if you own a restaurant in japan where you can charge a higher premium for a fresher fish. They could make up the cost of it within a few months.

This is cruel to the fish…
One up it by having the kid with a cat be a fish-person and the kid with a fish be a cat-person.

We all have a different set of objectives in deciding our everyday carry. Some people want to survive an earthquake, some want the freshest sushi possible.

I’m very curious about what kind of fish care about pressure but not about temperature. Possibly this case is meant to be placed in a rocket payload?
This… This is good.
