Xiaomi has launched a portable nano-aquarium or fish tank suitable for homes and offices. The fish tank comes with a 299 yuan ($43) price tag.

The fish tank is designed in such a way to maintain the ecological balance such that you don’t need to change the water frequently as nitrates and other wastes are removed. At the top is a compartment where flowers can be raised. Also, you won’t need to open the entire upper lid of the fish tank if the fish needed to be fed. There is an adjustment knob by the side for feeding the fish and also to adjust the oxygen supply.

The fish tank incorporates the siphon principle to balance up the fish rearing and keeping the plant watered via water vapour. When the fish tank stores water, the water vapour is directly sent up to the plant.

The fish tank adopts a user-friendly design and one-button control. The water can be changed automatically with just the press of a button, thus removing the cumbersome water change process associated with home aquariums. The gadget also comes with a four-stage filtration system, volcanic stone and magnetic ring stone culture nitrifying bacteria, activated carbon to kill harmful bacteria, upper filter cotton and lower layer biochemical cotton which can filter debris, keeping it cleaner and efficient.

The design also includes a 360-degree curved glass which ensures there is no viewing dead angle. It also comes integrated with different beautiful lights to add ambience. The fish tank has low power consumption such that it can be powered by a power bank.
