Why bore your fish with a humdrum aquarium when you can house them in the Spillarium, a spherical 19-litre tank that features colour-changing LED lights and a spilling waterfall that plunges into a bigger fish’s ceramic maw. More »
Showering standing up? That’s for savages. I want to lie down when I bathe—and I want it to be on a bed of colourful fish. I want a Hydroglass.
Wouldn’t it be nice, while waiting for the bus, to have an aquarium full of fish to look at? At least for those first few days, until they die, at which point it’d get depressing.
People who have birds and fish probably set the cage near the tank, but the Duplex stacks the two—cage on bottom, tank on top—in a genius move that everyone except the pets themselves will enjoy.
A four-way, USB 2.0 hub. A magnetic paperclip holder. A fake fish tank. A seven-colour LED illuminator. Mix them all together, and what have you got? Yes: possibly the worst USB gizmo ever. I mean, what’s next? A USB hub with built-in electric dog-polisher? I don’t know though: if you’re a collector of USB naffness then maybe you’d prize this thing… available now for US$20. [Gadget4All]
RhythmFish is a suction-cupped USB webcam concept that sticks to the side of a fishbowl, tracking the movements of your little shiny-scaled compadres. Sensors inside the bowl measure the “currents” made by fish swimming, and your computer combines both data feeds into a visualisation meant for “inter-organism communication.” Talking to goldfish? From the looks of the invention, I thought designer Sangmin Bae had seen one too many Terry Gilliam flicks, but on second thought, he may just be addicted to American Dad. [Coroflot via OhGizmo]
