Story
Nanoquarium is a real aquarium that lives on your desktop. Pop the tank out and the fish drift across your screen, swimming over your open windows while your clicks pass straight through to your work, or keep it tucked in a cosy corner, always on top. All the fun of a fish tank, none of the water changes. Built by someone who bred tropical fish for years, so every fish looks, behaves and breeds like the real animal, not a reskin. A tank that's always alive It pootles along beside your work whether you're watching or not, so feed it between emails and come back to fry you never saw coming. Tetras shoal, bettas blow bubble nests, corydoras dash up to gulp air, plecos graze the driftwood, shrimp climb the plants. And there's no way to lose : stocking goes by bioload, not fussy fish-count caps, coins tick along while you're away, and nothing ever dies of neglect. Cosy, never punishing. Collect 200+ real fish Every fish is based on a real one, with the right shape, size and personality, across three little worlds: a warm tropical community, a cool coldwater tank, and a saltwater reef where coral grows in and clownfish nest in an anemone. 207 species in all, as males and females,...
