This is the aquarIBM from the front, after adding gravel, but before filling
it with water.
Side view of aquarIBM. The grey feet at the back were constructed from 2x4,
painted grey to match the PS/2's grey trim.
Top view. Here you can see the screws for the hinges at the rear of the lid.
Also, the blue tab that was glued on to make it easy to open the lid. This
tab was from an IBM Microchannel network interface card.
Back view. Here you can see the ports that were reinstalled so as to fill
the openings left when the planar was removed from the machine. Also, the
AC receptacle, which accepts a standard PC power cable, and provides electricity
to all of the aqarium accessories (air pump, heater, lights) through this
single external connection.
