We have talked about some cool USB aquariums before like the mini version back in 2008. The USB aquarium that we are checking out today is nowhere near as small as that older one. This thing will hold a couple fish along with a bunch of other stuff in the attached bin.
The aquarium has gravel a filter, and internal LEDs that are all powered by your USB port. The water return tube looks like a faucet just to be different and a desk lamp on top is on a flexible stalk to light up the tank or whatever you may be working on.
On the right side of the tank is a cubbyhole that can hold your iPhone, scissors, pens, and anything else you can cram into it. On the front of that bin is a display with the time, date, and temperature displayed. Apparently, it will sell for about $40 per unit. I have never been particularly interested in fish on my desk, those tanks tend to stink and you have to clean them a lot.
