I'm usually a lurker on this board, have been for a very long time. I've owned the Beta version of your screen saver ever since I can remember, (I have a short memory). But I downloaded the 1.1 full version yesterday, and I have been mesmerized, ever since! The Lionfish looks great, well worth waiting for!!.

I've never owned a salt qwater aquarium, but I've done a considerable amout of scuba diving in tropical oceans and have seen these fish in the wild. You have captured thier essence precisly. I've always been amazed at how the fish move so realistically, but the Lionfish, with it's eyes and mouth moving, it's just fantastic.

Ok, I'm getting a little long winded here, but I wanted you to know that in my book, you have deffinately lived up to the company name SereneScreen.

Thanks for a wonderful product. Keep it uniquely yours. I'll be watching for news and updates.

(Ok, back to lurker mode....)

Thanks. I suspect that there are quite a few "lurkers" out there, quietly grokking the Aquarium.

Hi JIm,,, I too am a lurker and read this forum every night and I just had to let u know how much I appreciate the work you have and are doing on this aquarium.

Some people are getting carried away with their negative comments.....don't they realize this is just a program and not a real live aquarium!!!!

So keep on doing what you're doing and I'll keep on looking foward to your FREEEEEEEE updates and will gladly pay for any extras that are coming!!

Kudos to Jim,

Still running aquarium exclusively as screen saver for 14 months and have no plans to change. If we forget to realize this aquarium is software, rather than the real thing, it is because it is so easy to do. So forgive us, when we carp about something not being perfect, or life like as possible, because we know that you demand this from yourself. Keep up the fantastic work!

I haven’t seen it mentioned, so I would like to complement you on the mouth and gill movement of the lionfish, looks great. My other fish are jealous!

Patiently awaiting updates, almost.

Happy to be a small part of your dream,
From one of your number one fans.

Gill and mouth, yes. The eyes already move on all the fish.
