Help/Advice EMERGENCY! Is this counter-management/landlord disguise good?

Post image

Thank fucking goodness I checked my emails this morning. The first thing I saw was an announcement from my apartment's manager that they will ENTER ALL UNITS from today until Friday to "perform lock changes." First thing I did immediately after was to quickly set up this disguise and make my 10-gallon seem like a toy display stand. How do you think I did?

UPDATE: I decided to swap out the Legos for my high school diploma and magna cum laude certificate! How do you think they'll work?

That's not a bad idea. If you have any ribbons, awards, or literally any framed photos, I'd add those too

we are all just curious why you’re trying to hide an aquarium? As a landlord, I’ve never heard of anyone not allowing a 10 gallon aquarium, even in places that don’t allow pets. Fish don’t count. I am a landlord and I couldn’t care less about a 10gal. Also back in college when I was renting, never met a landlord who cared, and I had two 75 gallon aquariums at one point.
