Unlike other screen savers which have a flat photo that the fish swim in front of, the coral in SereneScreen Aquarium is built in sections which the fish can swim in front of or behind. Also, there are complex shadow mounds which create the illusion of a 3D lighting effect. Press W to see what I'm talking about.

The 3D background, when we get it, will be a double-width true 3D coral reef. It will still look like a tank, rather than the ocean, but it will have moving corals, polyps that sway in the flow of the water, clams that open and close, etc.

When? After the Freshwater Aquarium comes out.
