  From The BenchMaster:

  Howdy..wow, great program!  The fish movements are especially well done.
Just had some additional mentions:

  -  Since you have to assign fish: to whatever directory it's in, as well
as assigning the fonts: over (assuming you don't keep the Times fonts in
your fonts dir), you might want to change the icon over to a Project type
and run this from an IconX scriptfile. It's also (naturally) kind of a
memory hog, so you'll want to delete Ram:#?, quit FaccII, etc.

  -  If you want to make new fish or a background, you need a paint program
that saves in HAM mode.  If you try an IFF file, like from DPaintII, it's
Guru City.  I'm using Photom, which works fine.  If there's any hassle, it's
that you can only use the existing pallette, so you can't put, like, a big
nude pic or blazing tank behind the fish.  In this day and age of animal
rights awareness, perhaps it's just as well.

  -  I added all the icons for the .ascii files, so you can read the Temp,
PH and Hardness of a certain type of fish and adjust the aquarium accord-
ingly.  The icons assume you have Less, More or MuchMore in your c directory,
renamed as "Type".

  -  To have more of the same type of fish, just use the Fish Menu to make
another.  Give the first fish a minute to get going before introducing the
second or third for that more natural feel.

  -  I thought since it was only a couple more minutes of download time, I'd
include the 1.3 arp.library required by the program.  I also included the
Times 15 font, so except for copying the arp.library over to your libs
directory, this baby's ready to go.


  Stay looses, gooses..
