Roadmap

 

Introduction

My Aquarium is a fish tank simulator type game. The main focus of the game is to create your own tank complete with accessories (rocks, coral, logs, etc), lighting, and other items and inhabit them with a large variety of different fish. You can then feed your fish, bred them, or just sit back and enjoy watching them swim around. There really isn't much more than that though, but it's fun for what it is. The trophies included in the game aren't really too difficult to get, but some will be very time consuming (even with changing the system date to get them).

 

Walkthrough

Step 1: Edit all tanks to LARGE size and fill them with fish and objects.

 

 

Start by changing all 6 tanks to "Large" tanks (go to Aquarium Design -> Remake Aquarium, then when you get the option, select Large). After that do the following:

  • Place any object (coral, log, etc.) in each tank.
  • Fill 5 of them with 4 Asian Arowana & 32 Neon Tetras.
  • For tank #6, fill it with 100 Neon Tetras (then remove 68 of them and replace with 4 Asian Arowanas).

After finishing all of that, you'll get My Aquarium Novice, Critical Limits Master & Aquarium Master.

 

Step 2: Watch A Special Date Light Show

Select a tank, then go to "Aquarium Design" -> "Set Special Date", put in today's date, then save it. Go back to the main menu area of the tank and there should be a bubble in the upper left corner now. Go to it and select it to begin the light show. This will net you Light Show Novice.

 

Step 3: Start Towards Your Breeding/Feeding Trophies

Make sure your games saves, then quit the game and advance the system clock by six days (might need to advance 2-3 more if the following doesn't work) then restart the game again. Keep scrolling through your tanks until you get no more event messages from all of them (No more feeding or breeding ones). If by any chance you didn't get any breeds, then advance the system clock another 2-3 days and that should do it. After that you should unlock Predator Novice, Predator Master, Breeding Novice & Breeding Master.

 

Step 4: Yellow Piranha

After about a week's worth of playing (or 7+ days of date changes from your start date), you should unlock the Yellow Piranha. Once you do, put him into any tank. This will get you Carnivore Novice.

 

Step 5: Clean Up Remaining Trophies

Quit the game again and advance time by one full year and restart the game. As long as you got the breeding trophies, you should be fine here. Once the game loads, you'll unlock virtually every outstanding fish left and you'll get the My Aquarium Master trophy in the process. Finally, "remake" one of your tanks from scratch to another large, then add 25 different fish into that tank (use as many smaller fish as possible). Once you complete that, you'll get the Mix Master trophy and your 100%!

Trophy Guide

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/740/01.jpg My Aquarium Novice http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Added 10 or more fish.

 

See "Critical Limits Master"

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/740/09.jpg Critical Limits Master http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_silver.png

Placed 100 fish in a tank at the same time.

 

Select a large tank (either tank 5 or 6) and place 100 Neon Tetra fish into it. After they are in there, the trophy will pop!

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/740/02.jpg Carnivore Novice http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Added a Yellow Piranha.

 

You unlock the Yellow Piranha by playing the game over a period of time (or changing the system clock to a different date repeatedly). I had it unlock for me after I advanced the date a week later, but it seems it could be slightly random. After you unlock the Yellow Piranha, just place one in any tank & the trophy will pop!

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/740/03.jpg Predator Novice http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Fed 1 fish to another fish.

 

See "Breeding Master"

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/740/05.jpg Predator Master http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Fed 10 or more fish to other fish.

 

See "Breeding Master"

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/740/04.jpg Light Show Novice http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Viewed a special date light show.

 

Select a tank, then go to "Aquarium Design" -> "Set Special Date", put in today's date, then save it. Go back to the main menu area of the tank and there should be a bubble in the upper left corner now. Go to it and select it to begin the light show. After a few seconds of the light show, the trophy will pop.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/740/07.jpg Aquarium Master http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_silver.png

Put fish in all 6 aquariums and added objects.

 

Place at least 1 fish in each of the 6 tanks, then put some type of item (rock, coral, etc) in each of them as well. Once you place them both in all 6 tanks and back out so it saves, the trophy will pop!

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/740/06.jpg Breeding Novice http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_bronze.png

Bred successfully at least 5 times.

 

See "Breeding Master"

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/740/08.jpg Breeding Master http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_silver.png

Bred successfully at least 20 times.

 

Start by changing all 6 tanks to "Large" tanks (goto Aquarium Design -> Remake Aquarium, then when you get the option, select Large). After that, put 4 Asian Arowanas & 32 Neon Tetras in each of them. Make sure your games saves, then quit the game and advance the system clock by six days then start the game again. Keep scrolling through your tanks until you get no more event messages from all of them (No more feeding or breeding ones). You should easily have more than 20 breeds by doing this (as well as more than 10 feeds). If by any chance you didn't get any breeds, then advance the system clock another 2-3 days and that should do it.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/740/10.jpg Mix Master http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_silver.png

Placed 25 different types of fish in a tank at the same time.

 

First you need to unlock 25 different types of fish (by mating/playing the game/etc). After you have 25 different types available to put into tanks, select one of the large tanks (5 or 6) and place 25 different fish into it. After you place the 25th one in the tank, the trophy will pop!

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/740/11.jpg My Aquarium Master http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_gold.png

Unlocked all fish.

 

The way you unlock fish is by breeding, playing the game for periods of time and advancing the system date as a few unlock every couple days. There is a total of 58 total fish, but you only need 51 of them to unlock the trophy.

 

Easiest way to get this is to do the method mentioned in Breeding Master first, then make sure the game saves, quit the game again, advance time by one full year and restart the game. Once the game loads, you'll unlock an insane amount of fish right off the bat and should be enough to get you the trophy! If you do not get this, you will need to delete your saved data and go through the method again (seems it occasionally won't unlock enough fish this way and won't unlock anymore after that).

You can actually change all the tanks to large if you want. Simply click on design tank and then remake tank. After confirming the remake you get to select what size tank you want. This way you can carry out the breeding and eating in all 6 tanks with the 4 Arowana and 50 Neon. It might speed up the process a little

Didn't know about the changing to large, thanks for that.

 

As far as feeding goes, you'll get that the next day you load up as the Arowana's eat enough of the Neon's by then to pop that one and the breeding one will pop after about a week or two of advancing because the Neon's breed as well and that is the bulk of your amount, they just take a little while longer to do so. Just make sure that when you advance the date, you keep checking the tanks until no new messages pop up from them as it seems to only show 3-5 messages at a look even if more has gone on in that tank so the repeated looks will show more events (I missed that earlier and had 15 bred in one tank on day which basically would be the bulk of the trophy), then advance the date again 2-3 days and repeat. You should have it in no time by then.

But the Tip for "My Aquarium Master" does not help.

What type of fishes do you need to breed?

This will take a long time and no1 knows how to get the last few fishes.

i got all trophies in the game. only missing the last gold trophy.

 

Got it:

Im not sure. But i think it depends on how often you start this game, too. Perhaps anyone can try. At least i'm still missing 9 Fishes. So 9 ??? are left but the Trophy popped up after i unlocked the Seahorse.

That's also why it says "Work in Progress" at the top as it's not 100% yet... I'm glad to see that it doesn't require all 58, only 51 (which means I'm 1 short currently). If anyone else can verify this before I can, then let me know and I'll change it in the guide description.

 

The further along I go, I'm finding that all of the fish that I've had unlocked thus far has been through playing the game and then advancing the date a few days. I've tried breeding different types in the same tank and have yet to find any that unlock that way. It seems like it's just a time of playing/days type thing is how to unlock them, but I'm still trying to verify that 100%.

So...I did the exact same thing my brother did, and I didn't get the gold trophy...but he did. I have 51 fish (counting bomberman...hehe, does he count?) I've skipped ahead 13 months so far too...

 

Yeah I'm in the same boat there as I've advanced time over a year now and am still at 50 fish (can't seem to get the 1 more to unlock). It seems like some people are getting it and others aren't. I'm trying back through it now and advancing only 2 weeks at a time, then I'll try a week at a time after that (Since the game only registers Day & Month, not year).

 

If anyone else can confirm anything they did differently to get a few of the extra unlocked fish, it'd be appreciated!

damn you beat me to it:P was planning on making a guide myself:P

but a tip when you got all trophies accept for all fish and the 25 different one's in 1 tank. just put the date ahead a full year! this unlocked so many fish for me the trophy poped, on the other hand I do NOT have all fish... there are still some ???'s a friend tryed it too, got a load, but no trophy and he can't get any fish now, so this might be glitched... will update when I know more;)

 

 

EDIT: I dunno why you rate this game 5-10 hours, coz I got 100% in 1.5 hour... might be coz of the thing I mentiont above, but 5-10 hours seems a lot more than needed...

 

EDIT 2: I can confirm the unlock all fish trophy unlocks at 51 fishes... this is simply coz the trophy image has an 51 in it, probably because there are some non-fish things you unlock like fishes, I think the made a mistake and those count for the trophy while they shouldn't... (well saying it's glitched in a good way is a bit too much trough...)

I was having tha same problem, then i found out from a friend u have to breed 50 times to get the last few fish unlocked. So i started breeding yellow piranah and when i got to 34 bred i went out and set time forward 10 days to breed some more and when i started the game it gave me the sea horse and the gold trophy. Hope this helps.

Consider yourself lucky! I've long passed the 5 hr mark on this fish nightmare, lol. Need the Seahorse and that should give me 51 but I can't get any fish to breed anymore and have already fastforwarded and reset the clock several years worth. I'm spending more time on this Gold than I did for the 'beat Zico' in WipEout, lol!

 

Might be unrelated but at one point yesterday the game shut off & I got a message that said game data corrupted & to redownload, but it's still working and has popped trophies since then like the 25 fish in 1 tank. Weird.

 

EDIT: okay I finally got the seahorse by spawning the heck out of the neon & cardinal tetras in large tanks. the other fish just weren't frisky enough. It definitely seems to unlock by breeding as suggested above.

Also i have 51 fish, NOT counting the packs of them (that is providing bomberman counts too, if not i have 50) and the trophy hasn't unlocked for all fish yet.

 

Also to help out people going for the trophy below, i will list the fish i used, to save others some time, perhaps you can add it to your roadmap :)
