So it's a sort of motorised watery maggot? Your best idea yet. + |

(+)...but I dare you to fess up as to the inspiration. |

Without a tube around, this the device would be quite ineffcient. and as you have something physically moving from front to back (as oppposed to something virtually moving like in an undulating fish) you put a cap on top speed.
This might be something for high viscosity environments (proven by maggots living in such, but no fish-like movers) |

I know it's kind of pedestrian for around here, but wouldn't magnetohydrodynamic propulsion be so much simpler? |
|

For that matter, wouldn't a tesla pump also be simpler (and still be quiet)? |
