What a beautiful app - this will become my most used app- it has such beauty - I bought a beautifully rendered turquoise fish to keep my fragile white fish company, and fed them before coming to write this review. They’re swimming together in a deep blue niche, with a very real moon in an orange night moment - very real - it’s very peaceful, truly beautiful. I’m astonished and grateful. ***** ONE WISH - These fish are so very real, and their environment and water is so true-to-life, that I feel that they need more depth in their aquarium from front to back. They can swim side to side and up and down, but they have barely enough room front to back to turn around. I worry for them 🙏
Phenomenal Joy on my screen

I started with this developer’s original app on my tiny iPod Touch ages ago. Though the art was stylized, the animation always captured the true goldfish wiggle perfectly. And still no one else has done it so well. I had missed having the beauty of fantails for so long, now I cast them to my TV and they are so relaxing and wholesome to have on in the background. Outstanding value for the price, I love that I (gladly) pay for only the fish I want. Regular updates and improvements, developer is a dedicated artist!
Gorgeous and soothing

I’ve been waiting for this app to release while following the developer on Twitter. It’s so lifelike and soothing to just tap the water and watch these lifelike creatures swim my way. Would love for the ability to customize colors more on the user end, but even if nothing more were ever added, this is well worth the money.
Unbelievable Quality

I’ve been following the developer on twitter for some time now and was excited to see he turned his fish sim into an app!I’ve been looking for an app that would display a clock to put on my desk as I work, and was pleasantly surprised to see it included that function! It’s like it was made for me. I keep it on for hours as I work, and it acts a fun, soothing break when I mess with the back grounds and feed the fish.I love the fun holiday inclusions, and have already purchased some of the Halloween fish. I hope the dev continues to add fun new content in the future. I LOVE THIS APP THANK YOU
