    They wont be able to get in, some one has put a grille over it.:)

    But on a serious note, there doesn't seem to be any way for any wildlife to get out.

    Also no mention of filtration, and its a bit on the small side for the number of fish, goldfish can and do grow to over a foot long. :dunno:
