The first patent for an aquarium was granted in 1850 to an Englishman named Philip Henry Gosse. He introduced the concept of a glass tank for keeping fish and aquatic plants. However, various forms of fish containers and tanks had existed long before this, but Gosse's patent marked a significant development in the design and popularity of home aquariums.
