When former NBA player Gilbert Arenas sold his Virginia mansion in 2014, the sharks in his tank weren’t part of the deal … possibly because they cost $6,500 a month to maintain?

This seven-bedroom Marina Del Rey, California home is kind of the epitome of where we’d expect to find a 10,000-gallon residential shark tank; it also has a glass-bottom pool on the roof and a see-through piano.

Reveal: Tracy Morgan's Shark Tank | Tanked

In a 2012 episode of Animal Planet’s Tanked, Tracy Morgan requested a giant, Jaws-themed shark tank. Is it any wonder that Tracy Jordan’s mantra on 30 Rock was, “Live every week like it’s shark week”?

I would not like someone to invite me to step into their office if there were sharks swimming around in there. It just seems menacing.

Located in Saudi Arabia, Issham Aquatics makes some incredible aquariums. The company claims the royal palace shark encounter it built for a private client is the largest residential aquarium. Considering it’s over 420,000 gallons, we believe it.

Are robotic pool cleaners worth it?
The Airper Seagull SE robotic pool cleaner at the bottom of a swimming pool.

The worst part of owning a swimming pool is taking care of it From filter maintenance and skimming debris from the surface to managing chemicals and more, you'll likely find yourself hanging out around the water more often than you're actually in the water. Robotic pool cleaners are designed to alleviate this pinch point of pool ownership by giving you back your time and automating most of your tasks.

But are robotic pool cleaners worth it, or are they a gimmick that still require heaps of manual input? Here's a closer look to help you decide if one would be a good addition to your backyard.

Best Buy cut this air fryer’s price in half, down to just $25
The Bella Pro Series 3 Quart Air Fryer near food.

If you want your food crispy all over without having to deal with draining a ton of oil, your best bet is to use an air fryer. They're never too expensive and there are always great air fryer deals going on, but you'll rarely find one with a price like this. Right now, the Bella Pro Series 3 Quart Analog Air Fryer is half off, moving its price from $50 to $25. To pick yours up today all you need to do is tap the button below. If you're interested in our take, however, be sure to keep reading.

Why you should buy the Bella Pro Series 3 Quart Air Fryer
The Bella Pro Series 3 Quart Air Fryer holds up to about 2.5 pounds of food, heats up to 400 degrees, and has easily-removable dishwasher-safe parts. If you notice it is "analog" that is because it has a 60 minute shut off timer to give you peace of mind and an easy way to time your cooking. Of course, this means there aren't a ton of digital options, buttons, and settings. However, this can be a plus for some and possibly you. Not every item in the home needs to be "smart" and less can certainly feel like more.
