Pros and cons of Colorful Aquarium app for iPhone and iPad
Colorful Aquarium app good for
I really like this! But it would be pretty sweet if u go on the game and there is fish eggs waiting to be hatched! Who doesnt love baby fishies? Who doesnt like fish? :p Lol
All is good, its just it wont let me access one of my tanks :
K Im starting to get frustrated. I paid for this, and Id appreciate if you could fix it, so I can access my middle tank.
The art design is really great! Watching them is a great fun. Thanks for the app and keep going on!
All of the beauty and tranquil entertainment of an aquarium without the work. Love it! How about some landscaping objects, like shells?
Also, landscaping would be much easier if objects could be moved around without having to delete and add them again.
Update: The update that was just released is very nice.. once again the Dev did a great job! You can now feed the fish, clean the tank, have either blue stone or white for the bottom (would like to see more than two) and the things that the dev mentioned in this update.... also love the coral that has been added....
Would like to be able to change the bottom to more colors
Would like to be able to put a background on the back of the tank.... more than one please?
I love this app! It is nice to be able to see it when one is stressed.... fish aquariums are supposed to relieve stress so it is nice to see it... as for the other people that have bought this..... this dev could not do any better job on this app.... it is fantastic! As for the price? For what the dev charged for it I think it is fair myself... but then again I am not one of those that thinks everything and every app in the appstore should be free...
Keep up the good work... this upgrade was really nice!
Dev did a great job on this. In the Aquarium there are bubbles, water ripples on the top of the Aquarium also several fish to pick from which move in a realistic way. Also you can hear the bubbles as well. You can also turn the sound effects off and show tips or turn them off to. To choose what fish you want or what you want to put inside of your Aquarium you flick your finger up and at the bottom of the screen you see the fish you can pick and then if you flick your finger down you can then pick out your plants. If you choose a plant or fish and dont like it once it lands you can tap the little back arrow and it will remove the item you want removed..... Once you have your tank set up the plants swag back and forth... makes it look so real! And if you shake your iphone left to right the plants move even more....
Suggestions: Would like even more fish... you can a nice selection at this time but would love more!
Would like to be able to feed the fish and see them come to the top of the Aquarium to get the food
Would like more plants... once again you get a nice selection but would love more!
Would like to be able to choose coral
Note: Pleased with app! Fun to watch the fish, beautiful colors and so realistic! Dev started out with nice fish as well.. Worth the price the dev charged! Hope dev updates to what I would like to see!
Could use simple games, like chase the jellyfish or something. Maybe more fish.
I had the free/lite version for a good while, the new update swayed me into buying the full one. This is a cool little app! Its not a "Game" so if thats what u are lookin for u may be disappointed.
The point of it is - Set up your tank the way u want, add the fish u want and then relax/enjoy watching your fish do their thing. Plus u can feed them!
Suggestion to the developer - Lets see some seahorses & small crabs in the future!
Thanks for the latest update!
Keep up the good work! *****
Some bad moments
Dont waste your money! The application only has one background and it gets boring watching the same scene.
yeah thats right but I gave u 2 and no more how are my fish gonna eat they have no food ooh they have bubbles well thats not food I have another one if these fish and when you touch the scream food falls to the ground yeah so hope you add food soon be for my fish turn to bones and the price ooh well hope to see up grade soon really soon
This app is a big waste of money. U will probly play it once and never play it again.
Needs an unlimited amount of fish, more varieties, needs way cooler stuff if I just spent $3!!! You cant even feed them. Basically you just set it up and watch how boring they are swimming back and forth. Add some sharks and turtles and cool stuff like that.
There is a bug in this app it worked the first time then I have a green screen now
Why cant you gays please fix this app after all we payed 2.99 pluse tax for this app that dose not worl well
Its not much better than the free one adds more fish but you lose the clown fish still cant add more bubbles and there is only one more back ground to add.
My 7 year old was very disappointed that is was no better than the free one!
