Cubesday: USB Mini Aquarium, Cruel & Awesome!

Comfish might just be the coolest looking USB gadget I’ve seen in a long, long time. It’s available in an array of colors, comes with special software to help you raise your fish, and the aquarium actually has a built in oxygen pump, water heater, and LED lights… all of which are powered by the USB port on your computer.

Does this mean when you leave the office for the weekend, your fish die without your computer on? I hope not. That happened with my USB hamster cage, and boy, my coworkers were upset.

It’ll run you a solid $50. Totally worth it, I think.

    That is awful, and I sincerely hope no one forces fish to live in that. It’s WAY too small to be humane for anything in my opinion.
