## What is Mobile Aquarium?

Addictive aquarium simulation that will keep you hooked for a long time! Let your fish prosper or die---it's all up to you.


Read what users say:

"I just love it, it's simple but yet fun...."

"This is such a cute app. I love that I can choose the color of my fishies."  

"I really enjoy this app everyday!!!"

"Everytime I go to school my fish die!!!"


The aim of the game is to grow up cute little fish in your virtual aquarium. It takes about two weeks real time to bring a fish from a baby to an adult. Of course, the app does not need to be running all the time, you only should look after the aquarium once or several times a day.

At the start you have 200$ which you spend on buying baby fish. You can choose their names and colors. If you feed your little friends regularly and keep the aquarium clean the fish will be happy, gain weight, and grow up quickly. If not, well, your pets will starve, get sick, or even start to eat each other. 

Features:
- Stunning 2D pencil graphics
- Hyper-realistic fish simulation, including occasional eye-flapping
- You can protect your fish from a bad flu with woolen caps
- Funny messages keep you informed about the weal and woe of your little friends 


This program version is free for you, but it's ad-sponsored. You can remove the ads for a low price via an in-app purchase.

### 5/5 — Yes

*2025-10-13, version 2.2*

“Are you ready for your game design lessons?”
“Yes, mobile aquarium!” They say in unison.

### 1/5 — My fish won’t stop dying

*2024-12-21, version 2.2*

Blind people and visually impaired people or visual people aren’t always gonna be going to that game all day every day, especially if you’re in school you can’t whip out your phone and check on your aquarium all day every day people wanna live life they got life too. It’s not fair for blind people to have to suffer. Please give us notification or else. I’ll be deleting the app and figuring out a way to get my money back. how would you feel if you wrote a and review review and no one got back to you wouldn’t it make you feel sad angry or mad? It’s not fair.

### 1/5 — Love it because it’s very voiceover compatible

*2024-06-04*

It needs notifications like to remind you to put food in and if your fish is like at risk of dying, there’s been notification for that wait or something even notifications should be notifications

### 5/5 — Pretty good

*2022-02-05, version 2.2*

I have a real pet now, and of course that’s better than having a virtual one, but if you’re looking for something to help you pass the time, this app is pretty good.

### 5/5 — Relaxing

*2019-10-26, version 2.2*

I love this app. I wish there were more apps like it. Although, it does need updated.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2019-10-09, version 2.2*

This app hasn’t had an update in what looks like four years.  It no longer works at all, crashes on opening.  Hope the developer can either fix it or give me my purchase for no adds back since it crashed shortly after I purchased the no adds option.

### 5/5 — More games please!!!!!

*2019-09-07, version 2.2*

This is the first aquarium we have, for the blind. Can you please add a share through email part instead of twitter and Facebook. I don’t use those at all. How do I delete messages and the game? Please add full description of every single fish and the game, 3D sounds and graphics. More features too. Thanks

### 3/5 — Simple and cute

*2016-05-10, version 2.2*

Nothing too exciting. If you have more than one fish you have to check in and feed them a little more often than I'd like. You don't even get a little animation of food dropping in the tank or scrubbing, just click, click, fed and clean. Would love to see a randomize button on the create a fish screen and maybe a small selection of three-four different plants to decorate with.

### 4/5 — Pretty cool

*2015-07-26, version 2.2*

I think this game is really nice and cartoony and your getting this from a 10 yr old

### 5/5 — I enjoy playing this game

*2015-06-17, version 2.2*
