Presenting the very pinnacle of frame engineering...the Aquarius

Aquarius combines a fully stocked fish tank with a water cooled rig, ingenuously controlling the temperature of the tropical fresh water fish tank whilst lowering the
temperature of your GPUs through water-cooling. Make Aquarius the centrepiece of your living room, and become the envy of the neighbourhood all over again...



An Aquarius filled with Hotorius Dogarinus fish

Are these stackable?

When the subject of buying BTC with Paypal comes up, I often remember this:

Yes, but you need to purchase a separate Joint Oiled Keeling Enclosure to allow the fish to swim between compartments.

Can the swimming fish help carry bits n bytes to and from GPUs, thus speeding up mining?

Our next variant is going to implement TCP/FP (TCP over Fish Paste) which will basically allow for an unlimited number of GPUs, as the bandwidth requirements are small enough for the fish to carry the necessary data.

Thank's, I like it well done ! LOL

You have probably written a special configuration file for CGminer to set temperature of water and the cooking time as well, isn't it ?

Yes - here's some sample syntax:


cgminer --fishscales 2048 --algae-concurrency 8192 --boiling-temp 100 --tanksize 256 --aquatic-plants 2

So how do you cool the cards ? Yeah they are watercooled but how is it connected to the tank?

I would really like some more information Smiley

If you go to the product page and click on "Add to cart" there's a stack of extra information on the cart page, pretty much everything you need to know.

That's precisely what we're trying to avoid...by not making this into an actual product;)
