Customer Review: Okay, but a few problems
This is an easy, mindless game that can be a lot of fun. It does, however, have a few problems. 1) No instructions. It’s easy to figure most things out, but it took me nearly an hour to figure out how to take decorations out of the aquarium once I put them in. And then once I figured it out, I forgot again because it wasn’t very intuitive. 2) You have to feed your fish every single day or they die. I know that you should feed real fish daily, but if you forget, they’ll live. These don’t. If you go one day without feeding them, you’ll get treated to a tank full of floating fishies when you get back. 3) You can use your aquarium as a screensaver, but if you do, you can’t take care of your fish. They’re just there to be a screensaver. To actually feed and care for your fish, you have to play the game out of screensaver mode. 4) It takes forever to get all of your fish to eat. Real fish do not just swim around and ignore food if they’re about to starve. But despite these flaws, it’s fun. It’s educational for a kid, and since the fish die at the slightest hint of neglect, it’s a good teaching tool for a child that swears he or she is ready for a puppy. And the screensaver is pretty cool, even though it takes all the gameplay out of the game.
Customer Review: Unchallenging, slow paced game.
Nice enough looking fish and water habitats, but the game is unchallenging and therefore probably not all that interesting to most adult players. There are also no instructions (from what I could tell). You kind of have to figure it out yourself, which isn’t hard, but I still would have liked clearer objectives to the game. I also couldn’t figure out how to make the aquarium my screensaver, as it says you can on the box. I much prefer “Fish Tycoon” (Activision), where you have to earn the money to buy supplies, and you can sell fish you breed and discover new species.

Customer Review: Very Relaxing!
Great DVD, especially if your kids are fish lovers. Very relaxing images and music.
Customer Review: great for bedtime
we’ve had this DVD for nearly 2 years come Christmas. my son loved NEMO so much that I did a search and found this DVD. The music gets seriously tedious after the 1000th viewing - we turn off the sound and put in a soft CD instead. Great for toddlers and preschoolers needing wind-down time after books and prayers!

Customer Review: Where does the water go???
I received this product as a gift when my son was a few months old. After having it in storage for a couple of years I took it out this morning to put it up for my daughter and there’s barely any water left. I called the consumer number on the back and I was told that yes, sometimes the water evaporates but no one knows where it goes. I was told it was a mystery. And there’s no way to replace it. I expected a little something other than an “I’m sorry” from the very nice woman I spoke with, but no. We liked it very much for my son and would have given it a four star rating, but based on the fact that it does not survive the test of time, I give it only one star. As far as discarding it, I was told to bring it to an electronics recycler. There goes a few more bucks on a toy that has no use to me. Sigh.
Customer Review: Still going strong!
My mother bought this new for my first son when he was born three years ago. They weren’t selling it at Babies R Us anymore because of a newer version, but she insisted on this one and was bummed that it wasn’t available. My older sister used it for her son and raved about it, that’s why my mother wanted this one specifically. Luckily we found one, only one, at Baby Depot (Burlington Coat Factory) for only 11.95. My boys absolutely love it. My older son used it in the nursery until he got a “big boy” room at 18 months, after his little brother was born. Our younger son doesn’t use it for sleeping anymore but it entertains him in the morning so he doesn’t wake up crying. Music mode, running water mode, and also a mode with soothing lights and bubbles (with or without music). I know it’s expensive now but if someone gives you one, keep it! If you find one second-hand, buy it! Don’t hesitate.
