Aquary

Aquary is a living aquarium designed around care without fear. Feed your fish, refresh the water, adjust the temperature, decorate your world, and return in your own time. CARE WITHOUT FEAR Fish may become hungry and water may cloud, but they never die or disappear. Missed days never erase what you have earned, and the calm chain pauses instead of resetting. Care remains meaningful without turning your aquarium into a source of pressure. SEE THROUGH THEIR EYES Choose a fish and enter a moving fisheye view that follows its swim through the tank. Meet the rest of your aquarium from a completely different perspective. A WORLD THAT FOLLOWS YOUR DAY Morning rays, clear noon water, sunset warmth, and moonlit night blend with your device clock. Curious, shy, playful, and calm fish each move with their own temperament. CARE TOGETHER, WITHOUT COMPETITION No email, password, public feed, chat, or leaderboard. Exchange a short code with someone you trust, visit their aquarium in 3D, and, with permission, feed fish, refresh water, or restore temperature. Permission can be withdrawn at any time. GROW AT YOUR OWN PACE Discover fish and decorations, open treasure chests, collect pearls, and shape an aquarium that feels like yours. There is no energy gate controlling core care, and every essential care action is available without a real-money purchase. AQUARY+ (OPTIONAL) Aquary+ adds four atmosphere modes, three exclusive decorations, and a daily diamond gift. Aquary+ subscriptions and the one-time Starter Pack can be restored from the Store. Aquary launches in 10 languages and contains no advertising or cross-app tracking.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hello, my pet at none against Aquary's 7. Aquary's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
