How I perceive my fish tank

[tunicate]

Having setup an office tank on my desk, it is not surprising to start seeing some similarity to the computer sitting not too far away. Below is what I came up with:

TANK = COMPUTER

WATER = DISK STORAGE

WATER SURFACE FOR O2 EXCHANGE = SYSTEM MEMORY

LIVE STOCK = SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS

FISH DIES = PROGRAM CORRUPTION

RETURN PUMP = POWER SUPPLY

CHILLER = AIR-CON

MECHANICAL FILTER = ANTI-VIRUS

CHANGE FILTER MEDIA = UPDATE ANTI-VIRUS

BIO-FILTRATION = HARDWARE MONITORING

PROTEIN SKIMMER = APPLICATION HOUSEKEEPING PROGRAM

TANK CRASH = BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH

Interesting! If it's a computer a few things are missing, let's see how to map them back?

1) operating system = water parameters

2) keyboard/mouse = dosing pump or CR?

Friday is finally here!!!

Thanks Wilson, I never thought about that.

Nice one, let me try to add to it

Actually I see the display tank more of like the screen?

And the sump tank plus the equipments would be the CPU

motherboard would be the sump where all the equipments are link up to one another

The processor would be the skimmer

haha sorry if contradict with ya,

geek talk, omg!

Yes Puppet, I agree with you if viewed from hardware perspective.
