I couldn’t get it to work on my iMac or my MacBook Pro laptop. It just doesn’t work on 10.5 or higher. I had to install it on my other laptop which has Windows (XP) and it worked fine. The software itself looks nice though and I just wish that I could enjoy it on my iMac. I didn’t return it since it was only 5 bucks and not worth it.
I PURCHASED MARINE AQUARIUM 2.5 AND TRIED REPEATEDLY AND UNSUCCESSFULLY TO DOWNLOAD IT. I SENT 2 EMAILS TO THE SELLER AND HE REPLIED THAT HE WAS NOT THE MANUFACTURER AND HAD NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCT.
INCIDENTALLY I TRIED TO MAKE USE OF ASSISTANCE AT THE WEBSITE OF NEW MEDIA MERCHANT AND WAS UNABLE TO GET ASSISTANCE, EVEN THOUGH THEY INDICATED THAT ASSISTANCE WAS AVAILABLE.
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH AN AMAZON PURCHASE AND I HAVE MADE QUITE A FEW. IF THIS PROBLEM IS NOT RESOLVED I DOUBT THAT I WILL USE AMAZON AGAIN.

If you are looking for a realistic fishtank you should consider Dream Aquarium. The movement in Marine is hokey and not realistic at all. Reading the forums from the programmer I am left feeling that the programmer doesnt have any good customer relations as he seems to indirectly tell his customers that are unhappy “BYE” and seems to complain alot about eating peanut butter. Personally I want my money back and will spend any future monies on Dream Aquarium. I recommend to anyone looking for a realistic fish screensaver to try out Dream Aquarium and avoid Marine Aquarium like the plague.
While this is currently the best looking screen saver — Marine Aquarium is not compatible with OSX Snow Leopard. When going to them for support they basically said, “tough luck” and that they had “no plans” to do anything about this any time soon and “no refunds”. If this is how they want to treat their customers I recommend looking for something else.
I am very pleased with Marine Aquarium 2.5. I am currently running XP, and I just hope it works as well later this year when I upgrade my systems to Windows 7.
