I liked the UI and the choice of tank sizes and shapes, what i dislike is that there are no shrimp and snails and some goups of fish need more for example freshwater gobies there is currently only one species and they should add peacock gudgeons as another species for that group or stiphodon gobies. (: great game 5/5

The best aquarium simulator I have played to date! If you are big on the intricacies of this sort of thing this is the one for you! Lots of details to enjoy, I am not even close to getting through all of them yet. Another perk is devs are very responsive to community feedback (and active), making you feel like you have a say in the direction of the game. Overall strongly reccomend contributing to this project and having fun along the way. The sale right now is a great time to do so :)

This is an unusual aquarium sim in that fish behavior is realistic. Catfish rest on the bottom, clownfish seek anemones to hide in, Big fish bully and chase little fish. The jellyfish DLC is quite lovely. One minus: filters and heaters and so forth do not actually appear visually. Warning to Linux users: I am running this game with Proton GE, and if you don't know what that is you need to do a little research. I am amazed that fish interact with plants and other items in the environment. I have not yet tried realistic mode in which fish can die or eat each other, and here the game itself tells you that you are on your own to research PH levels and other aspects of aquarium maintenance. Another Linux note--you seem to have to turn off the Steam cloud in order to save games. If you are running in Windows no doubt you'll have an easier time. I give this game a thumbs up. It's very relaxing to sit back and watch the virtual aquariums.

A great relaxing game, amazing graphics and realistic movement of fish, love the freedom to create anything you want Would love however if there were more objects to place, such as pillars, ruins, shipwrecks, general fishtankery decorations, while there still is a decent amount to choose from, it’s mainly natural things, plants, and rocks etc, everything else is perfect! Definitely worth the price!

At the moment it's basically just a cool screensaver. It'd be nice if there more to do than just decorate a tank and then be like "alright I guess i'll make another". I still like it though.
