FishPet is a quiet aquarium that fits in your pocket — a reef with nostress, no death, and no strings attached. Hatch mystery eggs that drift in while you're away. Feed your fish with a tap and watch them grow from fry to adult. Every fish is genetically one of a kind: true two-parent inheritance across dozens of body shapes, fin styles, patterns, colorings, and rare mutations means no two reefs in the world look alike. BREED SOMETHING NOBODY HAS EVER SEEN Pair your adults and meet their clutch. Hidden recipes — cryptic hints included — fuse rare colorings and silhouettes that never appear in the wild. The deepest secrets take generations of careful breeding. FILL YOUR FISHDEX Every shape, fin, pattern, and coloring you discover is logged forever. Raise them. Breed them. The reef can be completed — and when it is, it ends gently, on purpose. SHARE FISH, FOR REAL Every fish can become a card — a QR code or link that carries its actual DNA. Scan a friend's fish and an exact copy swims into your reef, verified down to the last gene. Leave a fish in the Tide Pool and the tide carries a copy to keepers everywhere; take one home in return. No accounts. No sign-ups. Ever. A GAME THAT RESPECTS YOU • No ads, no purchases, no subscriptions — nothing to buy, ever • No timers, no streaks, no guilt — away time only banks good things • Your fish never die. Neglect costs nothing but time • At most one notification, and only ever good news • Works fully offline; sharing uses your iCloud, anonymously Weekly currents drift through the reef and color what the tide brings. A wandering visitor may pass through your tank today. The reef is calm. It will be calm when you return.
