Summary: Care-Free Fish
Review: With 5 tanks to choose from (1 freshwater, 4 marine), there's quite a bit of variety on this DVD. The tanks range from your typical fishtank, with species many will recognize, to a really exotic coral reef-like tank with more unusual species. (The "fishographies" will tell you more about them.)

There are 4 different soundtracks to choose from while you watch the fish. Meditation and Relaxation, however sound mostly alike to me, being somewhat-weird electronic stuff. Surf is quite pleasant and soothing. The Bubbles soundtrack I find too loud and distracting (even with the volume down), and it doesn't sound like a fish tank's bubbling to me at all.

I prefer the close-up views to the full-tank. It's easier to see the fish, and it's not at all jarring when the focus goes from one fish to the next. You can put the program you've selected on "repeat" which will play the track in a continuous loop. According to the box, there are 15 hours of unique programming.

This is an okay DVD; it's not outstanding, and it's not awful. It IS a much easier way to keep fish than to have a real, live tank.
