Hey guys,
Just thought of a crazy idea.....removable perspex fish tank.
For my first Mod i wanted to do something crazy, im planning on adding an extension to a case and in the front part having a removable tank. Pic:

The fish will not be in the tank all the time, only when going to LAN partys and other show-off occasions. The fish will come from my fish tank at home and i will put in 3-4 fish. The tank will be about 18cm wide and around 20cm long, and however high i decide to make the extension.
I am planning on making this tank completly removable so when at home i can just take it out and clean it and so fourth.

I think this idea has a lot of potential, and am more than certain that no harm will be caused to the fish.

So let me know what you guys think.
Cheers, Chad.

As long as its well water proofed and insulated the fish will be fine

That kinda reminds me of the guy who put a gerbil in his case. It is sure to impress at any LAN event. Sure, there will be a water cooled systems, but how many cases have living creatures floating around in them...on purpose.

Just be careful not to put the fishies into shock when transferring them from tank to tank, they don't like sudden changes in water temp.

You say the tank is going to be removable?

Why not letting the fishes in the tank 24/7? that way you won't shock them :P Youd better get some kind of filtering system in it when you're at home to be sure your fishes will live long.

I like that Lan truck Idea, have the fun of driving your pc into a lan party sound so cool.
