Big Screen Aquarium
 
Here's a picture of my Sony 16:9 65" TV with the aquarium running on it. I've got my son standing in the picture for scale.

Looks great, but you need the widescreen version.

widescreen running
 
Thanks Jim, I just installed the widescreen version. I like it even better than the normal aquarium (but I do miss the starfish ;) ).

Now I'm looking forwrd to the multiple monitor version (as are several other people I've turned on to the aquarium).

Question for ~Ferny
 
what vidio card are u using for that
and allso is that black space/strip at the bottom of the tv screen a black gap that the card wont display the aquarium picture in

what im trying to get at is ; does the tank fill the screen totally 100% or is there a black strip about an inch thick at the bottm where the picture should fill in but dont ?

Looks really good! I bet these fish are close to their real size!

video card
 
The video card I am using is built into my laptop. I have a Dell Inspiron 7500. I believe the card is an ATI Mobility.

The black bar is from the card. I have since bought a VGA to Composite converter that allows me to fill the screen.

Hope that's helpful.

vga to composite converter
 
I got my converter from Buy.com. It allows me to move and resize the output from the vga connector on the laptop. I use an s-video cable from the converter to the tv.

I still have a somewhat fuzzy display on my tv screen though, so I want to find another alternative that will also sharpen my vga output on the tv.

Here's the link to the device:
