 Amazing! January 12, 2007

I had to put this review in because of the unfair one previously given.
Before I purchased this software, I checked out 5-6 of the major fish screensavers out their and this one is by far the most realistic, (movement, background, lighting, and noise). I have two computers, one 800 mHz the other 1.4 gHz processor and the program runs perfect on both. The goldfish screensaver is just as impressive, if you're into that kind of fish. Don't let other marine/freshwater screen savers fool you by advertising more fish and backgrounds, the quality in all aspects, especially 3d-graphics and color (which are a must if your looking for realism), are poor. I personally thought I'd like the extra fish and backgrounds (turtles in particular) in a competitors screen saver, so I purchased it instead of this one. After trying it, I was very disapointed and luckily I was able to receive a refund. I purchased Marine Aquariun and have never regretted it since. What's great is they have a demo on their website your can try out too.

When I was ten, one of my memories was helping my best friend clean out his aquarium. After that, I thought I'll never have one of these, and I have not -- until now. I love tropical fish. God has created such beauty in their colors, shapes, and even their movement. After some careful shopping, I bought this for myself for Christmas. I wish I had gotten it years ago. I've used the adjustments to enhance the lighting, and the overall effect is just beautiful. What a great gift idea this would make! Definitely worth the money. (I'm not crazy about the goldfish screensaver that also comes with it, though)
And I will never have to worry about overfeeding them, or keeping the tank clean, or hearing the bubbles all night long, or even worrying about the cat!
Whoever the creator/designer was certainly did a super job!

I think this is a pretty good screensaver, but I wish you could have more fish on the screen and an included shark would be nice (epatulate, bamboo, etc). the goldfish are nice too, but i wish there were more to choose from. otherwise, i think this is an awesome screensaver

This is my first aquarium screensaver. The fish and aquarium scenes are very realistic and entertaining. One of the cats in the house will come and watch, pawing at the screen trying to get the fish! It gets four stars instead of five because of the limited number of fish on the screen at one time (seven on my older laptop with 512 MB). An ocean screensaver from this company with sharks, rays and bigger fish would be nice.
