Hi all, i've been on the forum lots checking up information while i grow my fishies I wanted to say hi, and ask a few questions i couldn't find answers too.

I haven't been playing long, but so far i like what i've done. Within the 24hours i've played, i've gather 5,415$.. lost 6 fish, and sold 254 fish, discovered 36 fish. Wanted to know if that was a good score?
Also, i keep getting these yellow fish (looks like a clown fish but it isn't orange) and sadly they keep dieing on me, i believe it's my enviroment.. luckly i'm almost finished researching it so i might be able to save this next batch... I've already baught 5 Vita potions... I wanted to know how long exactually does it take for each research to complete?


Those are the two fish i keep finding from the Common Eggs, i can't seem to get them past 14 years old =(

It depends on the speed you are playing at. At 2x speed it takes around 4 hours.

It's probably a firearrow, in which case it wont survive in less than the highest level of environment. Check it and see what its parents are, or what its called.

So far there is no way to get the tanks to hold more than 20 fish at one time, that I am aware of. The only way to get "more tanks" is to purchase the one from the "supplies" store, then you will have 3 tanks.

Please tell me what you mean by "Yes i am a newbie..don't be a hater =p. I am a fairly new user of this forum also. I've been playing the fishie game for about 4 months.

I am really curious to know what your intro means.

The seahorse does have an effect, but I don't want to post spoilers, however, it isn't just decorative!

Hi,
I can see you have many questions, and not many replies..
You may have already had some of your questions answered just by playing the game.. but.. here goes

After you have fully researched all the levels of fish environment (there are 3) then any fish will live and be healthy. Its a good idea to breed the "easy" ones and get some cash while your are researching. It does take some time.. but once you have finished.. you can really "play" and make all the fishies.

In my game.. at 2x speed.. it takes about 2 hours for my fish to get to age 20. that is from impregnation to adult hood.. BUT.. after you get the oriental gold bulb.. that time gets decreased if it is swimming in the tank with the babies.. I always make sure one is swimming where babies are growing up to help things move along a little faster..
Plus.. there is the growth hormone that will speed things up too.

oh.. and keep track! I have volumes of notes .. and i refer to them all the time..

hope this helps a little.. have fun.. !!

oh.. and the yellow fish is a "snout" and the white one is a "pigmy" ....

yikes!! ... inadvertently.. i posted spoilers without putting the [SPOILER] warning on the subject line.. hanging head..
... Obviously I am so new I didn't even know that the content had what would be considered spoilers.. I will be much more careful in the future..

This game rocks!! I don't want to ruin it for anyone!

Don't worry about it! I keep an eye on things so that I can warn people about content that might spoil the game for them.

I'll generally tag posts that contain details about how to solve the game - for Fish Tycoon that would be things along the lines of breeding combinations or species details for the Magic Fish.

Each tank can hold 21 fish, which is enough for all the perfect fish.

What goldenguppy is referring to is that there are certain fins that match certain fish. That combo is known as a perfect fish.

There are also 21 different types of each specie, so one tank can hold all of the different fin types on one kind of fish.
