I love aquariums but don't want to be responsible for any pets at this point in my life. This software is so realistic it's amazing. I have two Macs, one MacMini in my home entertainment system, and a MacPro. The MacMini is connected to my TV through a Yamaha audio/video surround sound amplifier. This looks great on my TV - I'm sitting in my living room listening to sounds of the ocean through iTunes while watching the beautiful fish swim around.

While it really looks great on the TV, it is unbelievable on my MacPro with it's very large high definition screen. On that display you can really see the intricate interplay of refracted light as it plays across the coral, fish, and gravel, giving the whole display a hyper-realistic effect. I love this program.

I bought the Marine Aquarium screensaver because it fits a wide screen and is compatable with Microsoft 7. I had a bit of a problem installing it but I will not downgrade the company or the product because it might have been my fault. The software company has excellent...and very patient....customer service reps. It has been up and running for several weeks and I am very pleased with it. Visually it is lovely....real fish and aquatic plants are represented and there is lovely music...Pachabel's Canon in D. I highly recommend it.

I owned the previous version of this aquarium and it was so spectacular I had to try the newest version and I can't believe they could make what seemed perfect even better. This has to be the most realistic looking aquarium on the planet. Gorgeous - both fish and coral - as well as their amazingly realistic appearance and movement. There are lots of fish with information about each and settings to control everything. I also love the slow scroll which makes the aquarium look huge. I notice at [...] that this program won lots of awards. I'm usually a bit disappointed in the various software programs I buy from companies and I never write feedback but this was just so awesome I had to say something. Thank you Serene Screen

The fish area absolutely Gorgeous! A real aquarium doesn't look this good! If you have HD, this is MUST BUY. No regrets here!

This screensaver goes way beyond what I expected! It is better than a real aquarium! The movements of the fish are incredibly realistic and some of the background corals are animated as well. The bubble sounds and the ripple pattern of light complete the illusion of "real".

I have this on both my HP Pavilion Laptop running Windows 7 and my MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard. The software loaded easily and works great on both computers. Both versions allow you to choose which fish and how many of each (up to 30), and to make multiple sets of fish. Only the PC version allows you to cycle the fish sets so that each time your screensaver activates, you can have a different "aquarium" to view. The PC version also lets you change the lighting effects; however, the Mac version does not have this special feature. I feel like I have two aquariums in my office!

You will not be disappointed with this screensaver!

So who wants to spend money on a screen saver? Especially when there are hundreds available for free?

I bought this as a gift for my husband and he loves it. It is great having a life size fish tank on our 40". It is so realistic that several guests have thought it was a real tropical fish tank!

It features 24 species of saltwater tropical fish which can be displayed in numbers up to 30 total fish. One optional starfish, three colorful clams various species of coral and anemone are included.

All in all, it was a great purchase.

I had the older version of this, but had to get the newer version after I had Windows 7 installed. I haven't had it long enough to see whether or not the starfish will appear to be climbing up my monitor as it did in the older version, but I hope it does. I like being able to turn the bubble sound off and on, but I'm not sure I'll ever use the music.

What makes me very happy is that I can get rid of that stupid clock. It looked tacky and out of place, and I wouldn't have bought this had I not been able to make the clock disappear.

All in all, this is a great screensaver, and, in my opinion, well worth the price.

This ingenious screensaver will delight and amaze you! It is vibrantly realistic. Be sure to read Instruction Manual to get full benefits of this versatile marine creation.

Incredible realism. I was awed when I first saw this on my computer screen after installation. It truely looks like an aqarium with fish. Then you can add more fish up to 30. Depending on the system you have, it might not be able to handle the 30 fish, but mine does and sometimes I just like to sit and watch the fish randomly move around. Love this product. Put it on two of my computers.

I am very happy with this screensaver.I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a screensaver that is so realistic you think you're looking at your own fishtank full of exotic fish. It's great. If anyone is looking for a good screensaver for their laptop or desktop, get it on Amazon.com.
