Fishbowl A fishbowl is a transparent container, often made of glass, used for keeping live fish. The term "fishbowl" can also refer to a specific type of discussion format used in meetings and conferences.
Fishbowl as an Aquarium[edit]
Fishbowls are a popular choice for small aquariums due to their simplicity and aesthetic appeal. They are typically round and can vary in size, but they are generally small, making them suitable for housing a limited number of small fish species. Common fish kept in fishbowls include goldfish and betta fish.
Maintenance[edit]
Maintaining a fishbowl requires regular cleaning and water changes to ensure a healthy environment for the fish. Unlike larger aquariums, fishbowls do not usually have filtration systems, so it is crucial to monitor water quality closely. Overfeeding should be avoided to prevent water contamination.
Criticism[edit]
Fishbowls have been criticized by some aquarists and animal welfare advocates for being too small to provide an adequate living environment for fish. The limited space can lead to poor water quality and stress for the fish. As a result, many experts recommend larger, filtered aquariums for keeping fish.
Fishbowl Discussion Format[edit]
The fishbowl discussion format is a method used to facilitate open and dynamic group conversations. It is particularly useful in workshops, seminars, and public forums.
Structure[edit]
In a fishbowl discussion, a small group of participants sits in a circle (the "fishbowl") while the rest of the participants sit in an outer circle. The inner circle engages in a discussion, while the outer circle listens. Participants from the outer circle can join the inner circle by replacing one of the current members, allowing for a fluid and inclusive conversation.
Applications[edit]
Fishbowl discussions are used in various settings, including educational institutions, corporate training, and community meetings. They are effective for exploring complex issues, encouraging diverse perspectives, and fostering active listening.
