What's New?

Card Purchase Mechanic: You can now use a debit card to buy items. Purchases are only made if you have enough money. There are 6 card levelsstarting with a basic card that allows auto-buy for just 1 item. As your score increases, you unlock higher-level cards with greater auto-buy limits, making it easier to keep your fish safe. Click the card to enable or disable auto-buy for an item. For example, see the Plant item with auto-buy active.

Today I'm going to give you 3 tips to keep your fish from going to fish heaven. First, The green minimize button can be very practical for taking care of your fish without losing focus on what you're doing. When you minimize the game, you won't see the aquarium anymore. You'll see a little ball in the right corner of the screen. If it's green, don't worry, your fish is fine. If it's yellow, you can check to see if it doesn't need anything. Now the ball is red, you need to see your fish right away. It needs you! [img src="https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/45627696/c754b83a13dae56fc4e6b47f4c8b4720ecf32774.png"][/img]

Second, Clean the aquarium by left-clicking on it. You'll see a cleaning animation like the one below. Click until you can't see it anymore and your aquarium will be clean. Or, wait for the clean button, which will clean it all at once.

Third, Give your fish affection by clicking the left mouse button, but don't overdo it or it might get irritated, and then that little ball up there in the first tip will start to go red. See the animation of the fish being affectionate below: [img src="https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/45627696/76a6bfe109292234582676aad2c7110aaf2bbe2b.png"][/img]
