Welcome to Gaia! ::

The Aquarium feature is full of fun. You care for your own virtual fish and watch them swim around. However, there's more to it than just that. When you first start the aquarium, all you have is the aquarium, a few fish and a few decorations. Don't dispare. You can get more fish and decorations from the Marketplace or, if you have Gaia Cash, from Phin Phang. You can also get some fish and decorations from the Daily Chance.

There's a lot to talk about. Let's begin with decorations. Decorations help make your tank distinct and shows your individuality. It also gives your fish something to look at.
Next, the fish themselves. There are many things that you have to keep in mind when raising your fish. Each type has various likes and dislikes. The fish will react to changes in the temperature of the water, the music, and even to the other fish in the tank. If it's too hot or too cold, the fish will be unhappy. The happier it is, the better the chance of you getting an item from the fish when it inevitably dies. So try to familiarize yourself with what the fish likes.

There's one other part of Aquariums that you should keep in mind, Booty Grab. Booty Grab is a mini-game where you go to another person's tank while a fish is glowing and try to catch as many gold coins as you can before time runs out. As you play, blue or red bubbles will float from one side to the other. Blue enhances your abilities to catch the gold that is dropped based on the symbol. Red takes away. The symbols are a clock for time, a shell for the size of the overseer shell on your head, a coin multiplier and arrows for modifying your movement speed.

The fish in the aquariums greatly affect the end result of the game. For instance, if the tank is full of watermeats, you'll have a constant showering of gold. Some fish shoot out special gold coins worth double or triple that of a normal coin. In those cases, you can walk away with more than 1000 gold from the game.

But don't go thinking that you earn nothing from others playing in your talk. If somebody wins in your tank, you are rewarded 1/4 of the ammount that they win. If they win 800, you get 200.

Booty Grab's a fun way to earn lots of gold quickly. For more detailed info on how to best care for your aquarium or set up a great Booty Grab tank, check out the following links and remember to have fun.
