Populate the tank with those mechanical bobbing fish, and some bubbler toys.įill the tank with the mineral oil, drop in some aquarium bubbler stones for dramatic effect, and place a blacklight in the aquarium tank light of the cover. You can put a cable switch box in there to serve as the port end connect point, so your normal AV and HID cables arent hanging out of the 'water'. Where the charcoal filter would be in the tank filter, use wireties to control the cabling.
Route cables up and out the top through a repurposed aquarium filter tube. (I would suggest something in a tiny form factor, like a mini ITX, since you can use a beefy wall wart to power it, rather than a full blown PSU.) Put the systemboard, including the heatsink and fan, directly into the aquarium.
Put some shiny black light aquarium rocks in the bottom. Buy several large 4 liter cans of shop grade mineral oil (It doesnt have the 'perfume' normally found in baby oil, which is also mineral oil), and a small aquarium.
