Favorites

My favorites are still the first three, with the new teeny weeny one thrown in.
#1 Oreo
#2 Ginger
#3 Freida
#4 Algernon

I like Moby, but he/she is a lot like a washed out Ginger, IMO. Cali and Monstro are two of those "never in MY tank" kind of fish.

Any ideas how to get back to the last build of the tank. Since this new one won't keep the background/foreground light settings and only allows for three fish, I've stopped using it.

Thanks, Cliff. I know I have a copy of an earlier version on disc somewhere. I just need to dig it out. My lazy brain just refused to remember that before your prompting.
Hey, my best friend lives in Kent. Are you anywhere near there?

My #1 favorite is Monstro. Then comes Cali, Ginger, Oreo, Moby, Algernon, and, finally, Frieda. Actually, Frieda is just too tiny and really doesn't fit in with the rest. I suppose she would be okay in a tank of only Friedas. I'm not too crazy about Algernon either.

Hey guys, how about hurrying the next version. This one is not so great (although I do like the bubbles). I prefer using the last version over this one.

Yay!

I do think development on Goldfish is moving along nicely, overall. The last version added quite a few new features, some of them were just a bit unpolished.

Yay they are really quick in releasing new versions, and the quality is good. I hope to see some changes to the backgroundstuff soon

Yes, I've downloaded the new version this afternoon, I am very please with it. Three new fish, I love the big white one, can add or subtract plants again, annd we still have the different views. All 'n all quite well done. I haven't watch it long enough yet to see any 'bugs'

Can we please just have a nice Gold goldfish please? The ones that are chubby and have elaborate tails just like in the pet stores? Maybe a mature and a young version would be nice. Thanks

What's wrong with the ones we have now?

Can you post a picture of a goldfish you'd like to see?

Hey yeasterday I dreamd I saw an aquarium filled with Calis and in the dream I though "hey Profilic did a good job at them, they move really natural in their tank, but they could do some little changes" and then I woke up the next morning and thought about the dream. I never saw Calis in my life before but in my dream they were more real than in the aquarium, crazy

Oh that the dream were reality! Let me preface this with the statement that now that we have Frank and Morgan (and lovely little Freida), I'm more that satisfied with the choices of fish available. IMO, however, Cali and Monstro could be so much more desirable if they didn't seem so plastic or wooden. But hey, I'm just one small voice gurgling in the tank.

Ooops

No, no new fish. I meant Jack, not Frank. Who, frankly, is a beauty.
I hope I didn't get your hopes up. I didn't mean to jack you around.
By the way, Frito--I mean Freida--is a comet, which I commented on earlier.

LOL!

I know lovely Frieda (sounds like a song...) is supposed to be a comet, but IMHO a comet has a much longer, flow-ier tail.

Maybe there will be another, eventually.

We need more of such Goldfish, because in my mind this are the "real" goldfish, that Mature sarassa comet looks really nice too I hope it will get added soon
(I think "Frank" would be a good name for it)

Marsh Marigold and IXNAY

I agree, a bigger plainer "gold"fish would be nice if it moved as realistically as the first three now do. I used to have a pre-fab pond that I stocked with comets. Koi were just too expensive, and the mortality rate can be so high for goldfish outdoors. Half inch comets in a number of colors were 10 for a dollar! I had
one--named Halley-- that survived for almost 4 years, and travelled with me through three moves. She grew to about 3 inches long with another inch of flowing tail. Then one night, a marauding band of racoons came through my yard and had a feast. They cleaned out almost every comet from my pond, including Halley; uprooted plants, turned over rocks--basically what racoons do. It was the last time I had fish outdoors.

How awful.

I had a similar experience, as a child. My Dad had built a really cool concrete-bottomed pond with waterfall in the back yard, this was years ago before the big water-gardening boom. Each of us four children got to choose a goldfish to keep in the pond. Mine was a orange and black fantail I called "Junior".

Somehow the pond bottom cracked, and one morning the water was suddenly gone, and the four goldfish were found strewn about the yard. Much to our surprise, Junior was still alive, in spite of having been carried by some critter (I suspect a cat, a raccoon would have simply eaten him) away from the water.

I nursed Junior back to health in a dishpan in my bedroom under my aquarium table.

Until one day he disappeared. The prime suspect would never talk, he just licked his whiskers and stalked away.
