Cate & Kevin Byers Kevin & Cate Byers put a little ingenuity into designing the lighting apparatus for their MacQuarium. Two nightlights, a 3-socket swiveling adapter, and an extension cord installed inside a custom enclosure provides a great glow inside the tank. |
CCMacQuarium resurrected October 7, 2005...nearly finished October 9 |
CD Burning Macquarium This is to the best of my knowledge the world's first CD burning fish tank. A full gallery of James Donohoe's own Macquarium pictures can be viewed at his website: www.macquarium.tk |
David Dameron David went with an old standby, the Mac Plus. It also looks like he built an air pump into an old floppy disk drive case. Good work! |
Dirk Brewer With a little care, any old compact Mac can make for a great MacQuarium, including a beat-up Mac Plus. |
Ed Tech The Ed Tech MacQuarium is a departmental tank in the University of Rochester's Educational Technology group. The faux menu bar at the top of the screen cutout is a nice touch, but what Dr. Webster is curious about is why there appears to be a picture of Rudy Giuliani in a zoot suit behind the tank. |
Eric Notarnicola In order to fund his MacQuarium project, Eric agreed to replace his last name with that of the Not Arni Cola soft drink company. Way to go! |
Gibran Salomão Gibran Salomão is from Brazil (or Brasília, as they call it), hence the funny little squiggly above the second "a" in his last name. The MacQuarium he made, however, doesn't appear to be too squiggly though, and it sports a nifty top-mounted light box. |
Jem Dowse I was trying to think of something funny to say about how Jem misspelled "MacQuarium" but failed utterly. Sorry. |
Joel Stein Joel Stein has finally answered the question we all have been asking: what the hell do we're supposed do with those old plastic Apple mousepads we've accumulated over the years: use 'em as MacQuarium backdrops! Since they're plastic, when they get wet they won't get all funky like cloth mousepads would. |
Michael Carroll Bettas are great fish for MacQuariums, and Mike here has a vibrant red one. |
Michael Gustafson Michael lives in an early iteration of The Matrix, a purely digital environment. It's run off of a Mac IIcx buried in Tom's basement, but because of the machine's underpowered video card, everything is pixelated. |
Mitch Leung Mitch Leung has apparently done a good job with his Mac SE MacQuarium. I inquired as to why the tank is only filled three-fourths of the way and he replied that if it were filled any more his fish would jump out. |
Nathan Sumner Nathan's MacQuarium appears to be of high quality craftsmanship.. Nathan also apparently only wants the best for his fish, as he has a thermometer and charcoal filter installed--very chic. Good job, N |
NK Computers This is the first Power Mac 5200 aquarium I've seen, and it sure looks good. |
