No this article isn’t about the Insaniquarium game. And it isn’t about the Wii Aquarium either. It’s about the COMFISH USB Mini Aquarium. The Aquarium, made by a Korean company, call the COMFISH the new concept for personal aquarium. Their target are fish lovers who are not very good at taking care of their fish or are too lazy to monitor the needed environment, especially tropical that of tropical fish.

The aquarium comes with a heater used for climate control appropriate for tropical fish, LED lighting in the tank, water oxygenation and anion production. All these aquarium features are controllable from your PC. By connecting the COMFISH aquarium via USB to your PC you can monitor and control your fish’s environment to make it ideal for the kind of fish you own. For those who have no idea what the ideal conditions are COMFISH can help you out so that using the aquarium can actually be a learning experience.

Aside from being a pet haven and an educational tool COMFISH claims that it also help humidify your room and can also be used as a nightlight. I guess ANY aquarium with lighting can now be called a nightlight.

COMFISH might be cool but if your reason for not getting a fishbowl is laziness then your fish could still die on you. After all the computer won’t feed the fish for you nor will it change the water it declares unfit.

The COMFISH bowl comes in different colors and a price tag of $52.
