Busy I guess. When I'm not staring at GA, I'm trying to finish my MD/PhD. I used to write software though, and have a very great appreciation for Mr. Sachs' ability to work in the confines of M$'s dlls.

Just curious.... how hard would it be to re-crop the mask for the surface light patterns? In some areas, the mask doesn't seem to match up with the outline of the rocks and gravel. Could tracing a layer out in something like photoshop help here?

wishlist
 

Here are some of my favorite fishes

#1 Kuhli Loaches (Fun to watch, esp. when you have 3-4 or more in the tank)
#2 Angelfish (Several different kinds)
#3 Golden Severum
#4 Gouramis!!! (Pearl, Dwarf, Kissing)
#5 Rainbow Fish!!
#6 Congo Tetra (beautiful irridescent scales) and Neon Tetras

Other creatures
#1 Snails
#2 Crabs/Crayfish

Interesting Stuff
#1 Feed the fish!!!
#2 Let us watch our fish grow bigger. This is esp.
interesting for fish like Oscars and Golden Severums
and Plecos, etc. which can live a long time.
User could select how fast time passes and how big they start off.
#3 Let user decorate the tank with plants and rocks.
#4 User selectable Gravel/Pebbles/ColoredGlass/etc.
#5 Let the fish dig up the gravel (Khuli Loaches / Cichlids !!)
#6 Treasure Chests / Other decorations (Optionable)
#7 Male/Female fish. Different Bahaviors. Fish Sex!! Fish Eggs!

Other
#1 Need to allow more than 7 fish in freshwater tank, esp. if you allow smaller fish like Neon Tetras.

fleance,

Welcome to the forum. Alot of those things have been mentioned before. But here is a quick recap.


Interesting stuff

#1 probably
#2 probably not, it messes with the collision avoidance and many other things.
#3 nope, that definately would. Objects have to stay where they are placed.
#4 probably not
#5 could be done
#6 Best looking treasure chest and bubbles you have ever seen
#7 different behaviors is planned, no eggs that I know of.

#1 Collision avoidance problems again

Ocellate River Stingray

GreenHsif, I like that first fish cept he has such a stupid look about him, reminds me of that guy on Popeye who was always after a hamburger. :) The river stingray is pretty cool.

Thanks grape jellyfish.

The river stingray gets my vote. At first I thought it was one of the rare pancake plecostomus, but I guess they truly are extinct.

Bigtooth River Stingray

Ace of spades, GHsiF?

Siamese Fighting Fish
 

.

The Siamese Fighting Fish is allways been my favourite.
It will be very nice to see some male with different colours in the freshwater aquarium. I think that this fish can be compared with the lionfish from MA I mean it will be hard to implement from the viewpoint of moving and colour changing.

You always seem to find such great pictures.. where do you find all these?

Thanks Panthera.Most of the saltwater pictures I put up are from a club I joined,these freshwater ones are just ones I found on the web when I was looking for something else.

The siamese fighting fish is cool!!!
thanks for all the pics greenhsif

Your welcome IXNAY,its no problem.

Siamese Tigerfish

AWESOME ...........................:TU: I love that pic . Got to have one of them . And I really mean it . I got to go get one of them . :D

Aquarium Options
 

I hope that Jim takes into consideration that some people may find the treasure chest, diver, etc.etc. a bit tacky. What I mean is someone such as myself try and set up an aquarium to look as natural as they can. I also understand how people like putting toys in there for there fish. So I was just suggesting that maybe things of that nature can be an option that the user can select from a list to put in the tank to suit there needs.

Robs-GTR,
The chest will be optional.

/Tiny Treasure

Thank you for the quick response, It's appreciated.

What will be the biggest fish in the freshwater aquarium?

My guess would be the Arrowana . That's if he is still on the wish list . Because they do get big . They get bigger then an Oscar .

But if not and they do put an Oscar in the tank , then it would be him . Trust me , I had them all . ;) :TU:

My guess would be the Red Tailed Black Shark! ..... :)

See .....

5th post, - 1st page ...... :)

He is cool . I had one just like that .

I believe the Arrowana didn't get a thumbs up (maybe a single thumb-slightly-to-the-side?) when we had the "I wanna Arrowana" discussion.

/Tiny Mouth on those things

The Arrowana is too big. Discus fish will probably be the biggest.

I know they are big but wasn't sure if you were putting him in . Now we know . The discus was my favorite . At one time I had a 55 gal with just them in .

Besides they are known as the king of the fresh water tank .:TU:

last 10 years back,i had an arrowana as pet. when i first bought it , just a juvenile about 100mm in length.
in my opinion, jim always put a juvenile in s/saver, can't we just have it in?

Will there be any fish that will swim in a school like the 3-d aquarium will have,if so which fish will?

Flame Gourami

Red Jewel Cichlid

Neolamprologus pulcher

Yes I think there will be, the Flame Gourami looks really good, so colorfull :)

I sort of like the Red Jewel Cichlid, but my favourite of this last batch is the Neolamprologus Pulcher - it's something a bit different and I think it would work really well in the aquarium. It's obviously not an albino fish, but the pale beige/cream colour is wonderful, especially with those yellow hints and the pale blue eyes. Superb! :TU:
