About

Fishtank Strawberries Guy refers to TikToker @WallyWhatThe, known for going viral in May 2024 for eating and drinking food out of a 100-litre fish tank. The creator began posting videos in late April 2024, first going viral for a time-lapse of him "drinking" 100 liters of Monster Energy drink with a fork, and eventually going viral again for "eating" enough strawberries to fill a large fish tank. The clip of the man rapidly consuming food also notably became the source of memes and jokes.
