A Japanese aquarium has taken to powering its Christmas tree lights using electric eels.
The aquarium uses aluminum panels inside the tanks to channel the electricity generated by the eels' movements in to powering the lights on their Christmas tree, this year they've also added a robotic Santa in to the mix.Christmas traditions don't get much stranger than having an electric eel power the tree lights, but one Japanese aquarium has made such a display into a recurring eco-friendly theme for the past five years.
