Product Description:

Watch as your monitor fills with water and real 3D fish begin to swim around the screen you were just working on! Features:
  • Real time 3D fish that don't just swim back and forth, but towards you and away from you, up and down. Like real fish!
  • Uses realistic 3D fish models, not just flat 2D images like other screen savers do!
  • Dymanic underwater lighting. So if the surface of the water ripples, so does the refracted light!
  • The registered version lets you download fish right into the screen saver from the Settings screen. It couldn't be easier! Take a look at the website to see pictures of the fish which are available for download into the full version.
  • You can select to use your wallpaper or a random image (jpg, png or gif files) as the background for the aquarium, aswell as the option to capture the current screen.
  • Select between warm and cold, salt water fish, and fresh water fish, or mix them all together! Remember virtual fish can all survive in the same virtual water!
  • The fish's eyes move, so they now look around as they swim across your screen.
  • Background Hum/Bubbling sound for that real aquarium atmosphere.
  • Many options so you can customize it to your liking. With the full version, you can have as many as 40 fish swimming around at once, as long as your CPU can handle it!
  • Feedback is always welcome! If this isn't the best 3D aquarium there is, then let us know how you think it can be improved.
  • There are now 16+ different fish species available for the full version!

  • Many other small fixes.

I Agree that this is a great app.Works really well
but beware if you have to re-register it.

I have been trying for a week to re-register but
I find when I click the re-register button it takes me
to a list of other screen savers.

It would be helpful if the re-registration button was easy to find.

I bought a copy of this a few months ago, then lost my registration during a system crash. In the meantime, I got an ad for Allume's Aquazone, which offered more features and more cool fish, so I bought and downloaded that for $20. All I have to say is that 3D Aquarium is by far the better deal--Aquazone is a huge CPU hog, and has poor resolution. I agree that it would be cool if you could turn off the sound of the pump and just hear the water...
