I had been meaning to ask my dad if I could make an aquarium out of our family's old Mac Plus, like I had seen online. It had been sitting in a travel case in their garage for around 15 years. Little did I know he was building it already, to give to me for Christmas. One of the most thoughtful presents I've received in a while.

I'm planning on doing the same with an iMac G3 . It's a pretty funny story though, it reminds me of a book I read when I was a child.

What type of filter ist it using? Air pump?

[mr. burns]

Yeah, air pump. The bigger tank you can fit in an iMac would definitely give you more options as far as fish goes. I'm pretty limited with my little 2 gallon tank.

Right now I'm thinking of either turning it into an aquarium or a bed for my cat.
With two gallons you can only have one fish, right? Also, why don't you get a water filter? It will extend the time in between water changes.

Er, maybe I misunderstood. It pumps the water through a filter. It's at the back top of the tank so you can't really see it in the picture. I have a couple little ~1" 'starter fish' in there right now. I think they're zebra danios but I'm not sure. I'm still learning this stuff. I read the rule of thumb is 1 gallon for every inch length of fish you have. So if I got a betta, it would have to be just one.

Nice I didn't know the rule of thumb, so thanks!

Best wishes to your fish,
