DIY Washing Machine Aquarium

Convert a washing machine into a novel aquarium! Get a front load washing machine, take it apart, and thoroughly wash all internal parts and pipes. Remove any hardware or wiring inside the machine. Use aquarium silicone to glue LED light ropes along the inside of the large tub, then reassemble the large and small tubs. Use silicone to hold the tub bearing in place and bolt the tubs in place, then silicone and bolt the door in place. Cut a hatch in the top of the tubs for access. Reattach the drain pump to the tubs, attach a bubble tube to the air pressure hose port and install a filter.
