Ok in order for you to have an "Aquarium PC" you need to have a non conductive and viscous liquid (Like Mineral Oil or Specialized PC coolant For Example) to submerge your PC into, also you cannot place devices such as hard drives and or other moving mechanical components like you CD drives into the liquid. You can search other types of non conductive materials on google. As for your last question in simple terms, "the electrolyte is a material that dissolves in water to give a solution that conducts an electric current, which in turn produces free ions." so basically mix in salt with water and you have created a electrolyte/Ionic Solution that can conduct an electrical charge
