The incident was filmed in the Almi shopping centre in the city of Gomel in south-eastern Belarus, and the footage has been viewed 162,000 times on social media.
Filmed by his friend, the dejected young man removes his backpack and appears to explain the situation to a member of staff before climbing into the large tank and fishing out his ring.
According to local media, the 23-year-old man had just proposed to his girlfriend in the shop.
However, instead of a tearful acceptance, the unnamed woman didn't just decline his proposal, she also threw his ring into the aquarium for good measure. Wow, there's saying 'no' and there's saying 'NOOOOO'.
As well as being knocked back by the woman he planned to spend the rest of his life with, the young man also has to pay a fine for hooliganism, according to local media.
Reports said that supermarket security did not detain the man at the time,
but bosses decided to report him to the police afterwards.
When he heard that the cops were looking for him, he came to the police station himself.
We know exactly where this man went wrong. There were no dogs.
Take Maurice Goldstein as an example. He knows how to pop the question after asking his girlfriend, Laura Stampler, to marry him with the help of 16 very special, albeit slightly furry, recruits.
According to Brides, Maurice asked Laura to take a quick impromptu hike with him up Runyon Canyon but when they reached the top, the couple were met with a trail of rose petals.
Laura explained: "It wasn't until I saw the rose petals that I knew it was more. Like, a lot more."
The pups were released by Pack of Hearts, a group of gorgeous therapy dogs. Laura was clearly bowled over by the entire thing as she said: "I can't imagine anything more magical".
Taking to Instagram, Rebecca Yale, who snapped the entire thing said: "She [Laura] did everything in her power to ruin the proposal from being an hour late to lunch, forgetting her keys and showing up in her PJ's.
"I will forever appreciate the text from her that morning saying 'he better not propose today'. But all of that resulted in us being at the top of Runyon during the most incredible LA sunset of the year".
