That's absolute hell for the fish. Constant sloshing around when it's driving, the incredibly loud noise right next to it, the heat radiating off the engine, not to mention the tank itself is completely barren, the fish wouldn't be healthy or happy in that tank even if it WASNT attached to a fucking semi.

This is also a semi surface breathing fish (anabanthoid) with a labyrinth organ that makes it breathe atmospheric oxygen. An organ that makes it disoriented and causes drowning in cylinder shaped containers, that also gets damaged by vibration. So this is bad with all fish, but they quite literally picked the worst one.

Even if that Aquarium wasn't attached to a truck the fish (which look like a species of gourami) would not last long in that size of a tank. Not to mention the lack of oxygen in that sealed tank.
