### 3/5 — Crashing

*2024-11-28, version 3.3*

I absolutely love this game and everything about it. But whenever I play it crashes every minute to 2 minutes which is irritating because I just wanna play.

### 4/5 — Game will not open

*2024-04-20, version 3.3*

It was working just fine.  But last night it refused to open.  I deleted it from my device overnight, And tried to reload it today.  But it will not load.  

My saved game is on my cloud, yet it will not open.

### 3/5 — It’s ok

*2019-07-21, version 2.5*

This is a basic aquarium simulator. The ads are irritating though. I wish there was a way to remove them. I’d be willing to pay to remove them but they don’t offer it. Not yet anyway. Not much else to say about it. It’s just ok.

### 3/5 — Where are my likes?

*2018-04-12, version 2.3.5*

So I’ve been playing this game for a few days and I’ve seen on my activity pages that I’ve gotten some likes but they are showing up on my tank page...why? One more thing, it would be great if when you tap on any kind of purchase that the app would ask you to confirm purchase. I just lost 48000 coins and 48 gems when my finger stayed on the item a millisecond too long:(

### 5/5 — Love

*2018-01-31, version 2.3.5*

Enjoy playing it helps take some of the stress out of my day

### 5/5 — Cute

*2017-11-01, version 2.3.5*

I have a few questions as to some small glitches this little game has. Wish you had a website, that would tell you how it is to breed specific fish to get turtles, lion fish, great white sharks, puffers, and the grey shark!?!?! Guess that's my overall complaint, that and why it is that I'm unable to see how many "likes" I've acquired!?!?!
Overall though~~
Nice little aquariums, that you can create and enjoy. Very Calming

### 1/5 — Crash

*2026-02-11, version 3.3*

Crashed Everytime, you have to start again :(

### 1/5 — Crash

*2026-02-08, version 3.3*

The game keeps crashing and making me completely start over every two minutes. I can’t even play. Terrible

### 1/5 — Diamond purchase

*2024-11-08, version 3.3*

I have purchased the 80 diamonds for $4.99 TWICE and still haven’t received them 🤦‍♀️

### 1/5 — No developer website

*2018-10-26, version 2.3.5*

Made A purchase I never received and had to go through Apple to get a refund.  Last update was a year ago on game.  I would not get into game.

### 1/5 — Missing gems

*2016-11-28, version 2.1.1*

I completed level 25, I was supposed to receive 20 gems but I never got them >:(

### 1/5 — Question

*2016-10-31, version 2.0*

What happen to my tanks that I had before that just disappeared

### 1/5 — Fish Live

*2016-05-01, version 1.7.6*

A lot of work to do to get the game to a stage where it is enjoyable to play - The latest update made it even worse and I am waiting to see if another update will improve the game -- Easy to get to level 60 and after over a week I have only done about 10% of level 60 and my credits drop every day - will be deleting the 'GAME'

### 2/5 — Frustrating

*2018-01-28, version 2.3.5*

I’m so frustrated with this game. First, I’ve been stuck on level 70 for more than a week. My aunt plays and she’s stuck on level 60. There should be a feature to email or message the people that can fix this game. It takes so long to gain coins, and it’s so expensive to do anything. I also agree with the other reviews that it would be nice to know who to mate, to birth/hatch, whatever I’d love a starfish or turtle. I’ll probably give this game a few more days, if nothing has changed I’m done. Very disappointing.

### 2/5 — Game Frozen

*2017-06-24, version 2.3.5*

The game is great if you can keep it from freezing up. My extra points and one of my breeding tanks are frozen and I am unable to get in touch or link with someone who could help. If anyone has had this happen please post and let me know how you handled it.

### 2/5 — Good concept but sad way to execute

*2017-03-07, version 2.3.5*

This is a first in app purchase game I have seen which is full of irritating advertisements. At every two minutes advertising pops up and some you can skip and most of them you have to watch till end.
