Upon loading your aquarium, you will notice a lot of settings, bars and such EVERYWHERE! Do not panic! A lot of these are simply telling you useful information, and will not necessarily kill your fish instantly.

Starting at the top in the center, you will see many bars that have what appears like random information. (add Picture Here)

If you mouse over these, it will tell you what it is, what the levels are and why you should care.

If you double click on an object/fish or select it and press F you can have the camera 'follow' the selected thing.

1-7 on your keyboard toggles the things on the bottom. So, if you need to quickly buy something, just press 2!

The most common issue I've seen with plumbing is that people do not understand water direction is a thing. I was very frustrated at first because nothing was working.

But, I figured it out eventually! The blue arrows indicate the direction the water is going, so all you need to do is make sure it goes in the same direction.

All of these screenshots show setups that work for the different tanks I have. I can adapt any levels to accommodate for changes in the environment easily.

There is a suprising amount of interaction the player can actually have with their fish. You can name them by (insert directions that make sense).

But, you can also drag them around using the nudge tool! (Insert Screenshot)

When the fish are serching for food, it will say "food hunt" by the behavior area.

There really isn't much with the breeding mechanics, but there have been confirmed plans to add a lot more!

There are three stages before adulthood, which are the same for all fish types (so far... I hope to have live birth, sharks and rays someday).

Fish breed when all of their needs are met, low stress and not crowded. If you click on them it will say (adding what it says and a picture when I have time). The fish will find its partner and start circling with them. Eggs will drop from the animation, signaling the arrival of more fish.

Fish spawning. This seems to take 10-13 days to happen.

Fish fry. Lasts days.

Juvenile. Lasts days.


After the juvenile stage they become full adults. This takes days.

Currently there is NOTHING. However, when I see things I deem "useful" I may add them here. I will probably do a breakdown of all current fish and plants when I can, but only after I am more done with this guide.
