Fish Tycoon
Breed beautiful and exotic fish in this unique aquarium-sim puzzler. These are your fish and like real fish, you need to care for them. You can feed them, cure them if they get sick and make lots of babies! The game runs in true real time: new surprises every time you check back into your game. Buy supplies, ornaments and special chemicals for your virtual tank. Over 400 different species of fish to discover! Can you find the 7 Magic Fish?
firstly thanks to a good transaction to purchasing this game it was my first time buying online and i was not sure but it went really well no dramas.
the game itself is seriously addictive,well designed but basic,not as easy as people might think,very challenging and hard at the start but the real time feature is brilliant in the sense if you do it right and are carefull to check it frequently your tanks will thrive wilst your not even home or asleep.(make sur if you have rare fish set it to half time in the realtime options wilst leaving overnight or for a long time)but this game is cheap ,addictive ,and overall a great game.

A SPLENDID GAME !!
This game is very fun, mostly because of the Real-Time feature that enables your fish to act like real fish. The graphics aren't to good; I've seen same types of games with realistic graphics. The sound quality could have been better.
The gameplay is like nothing I've ever seen before. It's easy to play, realistic (fish get sick and even die if you don't cure them) and, I have to admit, this is the first game that has a true Real-Time feature.
It's a vey good game for those that don't have to much time to play.
I recommend you buy this game because it's not worth playing only 1 hour! I consider this game an original in it's genre.

Speed Play...
I was like the couple of "bored" players with this game as well, until I changed the speed. I hated the wait and just wanted to play. I found it a lot more fun after that. It took me a while to find all the special breeds, but it was interesting to see the outcomes of the new fish.
The kids (6 & 14) enjoyed this game, and still do.
TIP...find a breed that sells for a good amount of $$ and just keep breeding the same fish until you have enough to buy what you want. I kept breeding the Goldbulb and selling it for $60.

Hey if you want to get grow your fish faster with no money and time just make your fish pregnant and turn of game, then click on your computer clock and make your date 1 day more, then turn on your tycoon and fish will be grown ;D
Once you begin breeding magic fish, don't waste too much time on raising and selling other fish...just raise a lot of the magic fish. The magic fish sell for big bucks and attract tons of customers. Also, when you're only keeping magic fish as breeders, you won't take up so much room in your tanks with less-profitable fish. You'll want to re-set the default prices of your magic fish before you sell them.
(1) Breed a Silky Beta (saved from magic breeding #2) and an Orange Beta. Eggs will eventually produce the Orange Beta (experiment with both the cheapest eggs and the mid-priced eggs).
(2) From Step One, you will get a Pink Beta. Breed the Pink Beta with a Twin-Fin Fruitfish (saved from magic breeding #2).
(3) From Step Two, you will get a Spined Stickfish. Breed the Spined Stickfish with a Golden Goldbulb (saved from magic breeding #2) to get the Crimson Comet %u2013 Magical Fish of Curing.
Note: DO NOT SELL the Orange Beta, the Pink Beta, or the Silky Beta. You should also still have the Twin-Fin Spotanus, the Twin-Fin Fatfish, the Twin-Fin Shark, and the Greenfin Beta from magic breeding #2. You will need all of these breeds for future magic breeding. You will need only one of each of these breeds. If you have extras, you can sell them.
Don't spend every last dime on eggs...keep about $100 for medicines. Breed more and build up your cash. If you spend all of your cash, you won't be able to purchase medicine to cure sick fish. If certain fish die, you may have a hard time figuring out how to breed them again, since the game does not keep track of what you've bred once that species has sold and/or died.
dont let the sick fish in with the others as it will cause them to get sick.
also if u cant keep track of your baby and adult fish then put the babys in the sale tank and the others in the other tank because babys dont sell and when they grow up move them to the other tank.
If you want a fish to grow up quickly set the game to doubble time and exit the game. Then go to your compurer clock and turn it ahead 1 hour. Note:Turning the computer clock back will not affect your fish.
if you want to make your fish grow faster, please, DO NOT SWITCH the time on your computer.it causes clashes with programs and leads to severe lags. try playing on the 2x speed
Breed beautiful and exotic fish in this sim-strategy game! The fish don't appear to have genders, so you are able to make any of them pregnant...even fish who have previously impregnated other fish! Use this tactic to build your fish empire!
greenfin spotanes, speckled leaffish, crimson comet,oriental goldbulb, orange snooper, wasp gruoper and canary fire arrow are the seven magic fish. if u want all the magic fish u should research "fish enviorment"
