Geeky 8-Bit Aquariums

The Super Mario Fish Tank Lets Sea Creatures Swim with Goombas

— May 30, 2012 — Tech
The bar for all aquatic animal enclosures has officially been raised thanks to the Super Mario fish tank. This ingenious fish tank is modeled after a level from the original 8-bit classic. The architect of this tank is currently unknown, but what is known is that the tank weighs in at 55 gallons, and that the structures are made from LEGO. It is unconfirmed whether or not the goombas are real.

The design of the Super Mario fish tank is impeccable, save for the fact that the level that the tank is modeled after isn't one of the game's underwater ones. Still, this colorful aquarium is sure to appeal to the fish in tanks more than a simple castle and colored rocks ever would.
