Right. Imagine being watched by humans with no way to hide in the tank. No matter where you go, someone can observe you and you won't even know. They will alter your behaviour by placing new products inside the tank every so and then. Put new shiny stones, hanging weed etc to coax you to do something they want. You may not get a big tank because your owner might not be able to afford the bigger tank as price of them keep increasing. Pretty isolating.

It's good that you are not a fish but a human.
