Darmar, a fish tank? We've seen families with odd devices at their campground (standing refrigerators and other large electrical devices but never asked why they have what they have. Many times they look like families who lost their homes and have resorted to camping to save funds. It's a sad but true state of the economy.
A/C units in the larger tents is starting to get very popular with many campers. The most effective is those standalone room A/C units and they'll cut a hole in the tent wall and seal the hole pretty good for exhaust ventilation. These units can easily cool a tent interior even though it's quite the battle with the hot sun beading down on the tent. Since many campgrounds have electric and water hookups, there's their power source, or they'll drag along a generator.
To help keep the tent even cooler they'll sometimes rig an oversized tarp over the whole tent to provide extra shade. Apparently this helps a lot. Sure, set up is a bear but if you can keep the tent cool and mama inside in the cool tent and able to read her book or visit with the other people, then that's their goal. The Dads will be outside with the kids and friends. This invariably leads to their first trailer and the rest they say, is history.
