She created aStar Warsthemed aquarium, where the remains of an AT-AT walker is swimming with the fishesliterally.
The idea for the the sci-fi-inspired tank came when Thompsons brother bought her an AT-AT aquarium decoration for Christmas.
However, she decided to try something new.
I knew that I wanted it to look as natural as possible, Thompson tells My Modern Met.
I recalled the map Kashyyk in the video gameStar Wars: Jedi Fallen Order.
That and theMoon of Endorfrom theStar Warsmovies were my inspiration for this tank.
It took Thompson around three days to design and put together the fish tank.
She used a common aquarium wood called cholla to create the tall, burly tree trunks.
She then used java moss and a three-leaf seed to create the mossy jungle appearance.
The marine life that I chose to put into this tank was a very difficult decision, Thompson reveals.
Their fiery red color and the overall natural behavior of these fish are what made me want them.
I purchased five of them at my local pet store and stocked my tank, she says.
These fish were so curious and active in the tank.
