The attached Excel spreadsheet was prepared by Borg, and is a complete guide to breeding all of the fish in Fish Tycoon, including the identification of the 7 Magic Fish.

This spreadsheet will do calculations to show you all of the fish that you can produce, after you input the fish that you now have. You have the option of manually updating the data after you have entered all of your fish, instead of doing the updates as you enter your information. This will greatly speed up your data entry, although it won't speed up the update, once you've pressed the button.

The fish prices are the starting price of the fish, as set by the game.

Thanks, Borg, for all your hard work on this chart!

NOTE!!
You must have Microsoft Excel to use the features of this file. If you don't have Excel, please see the post below for an alternative.

The following is a screen shot of the spreadsheet, as well as Borg's instructions for using it:



How it works:

step 1) press Clear All button
step 2) use mouse or cursor keys to select a cell on the grid of a fish you have
step 3) press Add Fish button. selected cell turns green which means you have that fish.
step 3a) use Remove Fish if you make a mistake
step 4) repeat steps (2) and (3) for all the fish you have
step 5) save worksheet so you don't have to start from scratch next time

Use mouse or cursor keys to select yellow cells (these are fish you don't have but could breed from the fish you have). in the big box at the bottom will be instructions how to breed the fish the most efficient way, based on the fish you own.

Note: if you have a fast computer and your fish are all close to each other on the grid, this utility is quite fast (seconds). if you have a slow computer and your fish are on opposite edges of the grid, it could take anywhere from 30 minutes to overnight to complete. so if you have a lot of fish all over the map, and see the hourglass symbol, and it does not go away, the program is not stuck. go have dinner or go to bed, and with luck it will be done when you get back.

The attached file is a version of Borg's chart that is a much smaller file that will work well with the free Excel Viewer that is available from Microsoft. You can download and install the Excel viewer by clicking here. The viewer will open the charts in a read-only mode that will enable you to use the breeding information and fish prices. The following is a screen shot of the chart and a link to download this special version.
