Back in 1998 I built my own MacQuarium. I even built the tank to exact specifications. I kept a goldfish in it named Kumud for three years. 'Mud passed away one summer and the MacQuarium was put away. In 2007, I found a cool little acquarium at the local Family Dollar that was just the right size to fit inside my Mac 128K shell so I picked it up along with a few fish. A goldfish named Ackbar, who lives in his own 1 gallon bowl, a GloFish named Steve and a ghost shrimp named Woz (named after Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, co-founders of Apple Computer... seemed appropriate since they're living in a MacQuarium).

Can he see his reflection? |
Or is it an optical illusion? |

Not much to do in a bowl of water. |

Steve's on the move. The image behind the tank is that of a Mac 128K motherboard. |
An unusual roommate. |
