Inventor Jerry Huang is pushing his most recent creation, a mobile fish tank, up and down the streets of Taichung, Taiwan.

He'd witnessed people taking their cats, dogs and even snakes, lizards and spiders for a stroll and began to wonder if he could give underwater creatures a new perspective.

Huang was determined to come up with a solution and, after weeks of tinkering with the design, the idea of the goldfish stroller came to him.

He managed to piece it together from a few odd things he had lying about.

Having chosen goldfish because of their hardy nature, he began constructing the animals' mobile home.

The space-age looking contraption, costing between $300 and $400 to build, consists of a large water-filled plastic tank from which the fish can peer out at the world.

A battery-powered filtration and oxygen system sits on a trolley below the tank.

Much to his astonishment, Huang has attracted attention when walking his fish.

The fish appear to be enjoying the experience, and children and adults alike are fascinated by the unique invention as it rolls down the city streets.

From their tiny watery world, these fish have a huge and varied perspective of life on land.
