    There's one of those in a shop called The GoldFish Bowl in Oxford. Looks like a normal LianLi case with a special side panel. There's a pump to shift all the water round, and the little plastic fishies go zooming around the outside!

    Best of both worlds, make it into a resivoir and then put fish in it! I wonder if fish can survive in coolant...

    No, probably not.

    Seriously though, that would be the most insane res ever.

    i think you can mod it, the window fills with water right? and there is a pump, so just disconnect the pipe, stick in a barb connect the tube there you go

    Ive got it, you Mod the window to hold the PC, so the window holds maybe a Mini-ITX board etc and then the case is a goldfish tank. How about that?

    The pump pumps air to make the fish move. It's never going to be powerful enough to supply water to a WC setup.

    Sounds like a good idea, I've not seen it done and can't find anything on Google. Go for it mate :thumb:

    idk i think it should be half res and with some thin plexi make the other half gold fish safe so its like 2 windows that would be sorta cool i guess, or take the plastic fish out and put some killer fighting betas in!!! get the video camera though
