The XBOX 360 aquarium by Blue World Aquariums is simply a stunning work of both video game console modding and ingenious pico reef aquarium design.

This was a custom project that was just for fun. It’s a fully functional saltwater aquarium, complete with live corals, fish, crabs, snails, and shrimp. The tank is built into an Xbox 360 case. The tank itself is made of glass, and is approximately 6? long, 8? tall, and 2.5? wide. Water volume inside the tank is 0.45 gallons. The tank is lit with a color-changing (RGB) LED strip. Lighting color and intensity is controlled with a wireless remote.

The maintenance schedule for this tank will be a weekly water change, and daily feeding and top-up. 60% water changes are easily accomplished by disconnecting and refilling the canister filter with freshly mixed saltwater. We’ve also made a tiny cleaning magnet for the the front glass.
