Fish Tycoon for Windows has been listed on GameSpot, which I am presonally very thrilled about!
Check out the summary here.
Feel free to post a [good] review there, and tell your friends! If the game gets enough hits at GameSpot we can get bumped up in visibility!!

Anything to help get the word out about this game! As I said in my review, "You'd be cheating yourself to not try it, and you'd be cheating the brilliant developers to not buy it."

Excellent - I will be downloading this tonight, as I still haven't bought myself a Palm to run your games. Maybe I should get a cell phone first...
Keep up the good work!

Is there a place I can go to see or read about what the different species are?

A good place to start is the Spoilers Thread in the Fish Tycoon Guide section of the forums! There are a lot of useful references in there.

It looks like you have a couple of problems.
1. Your fish keep dieing. Ouch, nothing will help with the exception of checking in on them. The level of food research will keep your fish well feed for at least 24 hours, so if get that if you don't have it. Other then that, if you know you are going to be away from the computer for several days, pause the game.
2. Your selling price is affected by several things. Advertising, the amount of fish in the fish tank and the items you can buy in the store. Also Magic fish in the sell tank will bring more peeps in the store as well, which will help you sell them faster.
Does that help?

Also, though I'm sure you already know, you are and have been for quite some weeks, NUMERO UNO Gamehouse. It's the most downloaded game, and people rave about it.
I, personally, have been breeding and selling since the day it appeared there, and even though I got all the magic fish quickly, I can't stop. Sometimes I sell all of my magic fish and start all over again from the cheap eggs. (I keep my money.) I erased the notes a long time ago, since it's really half the fun to continue to find new breeds. I'm almost to 400, so I'm still crossbreeding. What fun! I seriously could do it forever (if those darn Wasp Groupers, which bring me such a pretty penny, didn't keep changing my Golden Guppies into plain old fish... Ack -- and they once changed ALL of my Green Spotanuses, Spotanii? -- into orange. They seen to like to make everything orange -- except the orange snoopers, of course. Oriental to Orange Goldbulb is another fun trick they play on me.)
BTW, as a non-palm-owner, I am THRILLED to find these games for Windoze, and the grin on my face when I saw the "strange fish" in VV was probably hilarious. I'm 38 and I went, "OMG! It's a Green Spotanus!" And I SO hoped that it would do what I thought it would do. Then I kept sending them back to the lagoon to see if they'd find the other 6 magic fish, but it seems we eat better if I let them go in the ocean 
My only wish is that I would LOVE to be able to have more than three tanks -- often I've had to trash fish because I had to get some important fish (second Canary Fire-Arrow or something) out of the selling tank before I could take the risk of sales, and someone was in isolation already. I try not to overbreed, but I keep the green spots in every tank, so sometimes we get more than expected!
Anyway, I LOVE the game. I will hurry off to send the great review I already sent to GameHouse to GameSpot!
Thanks Again, Ella

I was frustrated in the beginning with the cost of store stuff and thought I'd NEVER get enough to buy research or even vitamins. I did eventually.
THOUGHTS:
1) If you can't see your fish all day at the office, etc, then make sure you slow the clock or even stop it while gone all day long until you research food that will hold them, though even the plain food should hold them for 10 hours or so -- more likely you are just ending up with fragile fish.
2) To earn the cash, find then concentrate on breeding ONE very HEARTY fish that brings over $15 starting price.
The more of them you sell, the more you will find that people buy (odd supply and demand deal, but oh well.) As they are buying them, you can **slowly** creep the price up by $1 or $2 at a time. I existed for a VERY long time off of Wasp Leaffish, which I was selling for about $48 a piece by the time I was able to keep other kinds alive. They put my research through college.
