Also, he will not throw coins or beetles. Four Active Pets: ----------------- You can buy this upgrade for 40,000 shells, but it is only available after buying all four bonus pets. This upgrade allows you to bring up to four pets in a tank instead of three. Multiple Nostradamus fish: -------------------------- Get Nostradamus. Go to Adventure mode and let your fish turn green. When he drops snot the hungry fish will become Nostradamus.

When Alien type U (Rock Giant) appears, press "Feed" button and click the Ultravore. This also works with other Aliens. For example, The Fat Guy can be fed pizza and chicken. Easy coins: ----------- Work your way up the food chain as fast as possible. First, feed about three guppies until you get enough money for a carnivore. Buy a carnivore and feed it guppies until you get enough money for another carnivore. Keep buying carnivores whenever the money is available and get maximum food upgrades sometime after you buy the first carnivore. You only need about Food x4 or x5. There is no need to get all nine because you should be focused on getting creatures higher up on the food chain. Continue to buy carnivores whenever available. Eventually you should have about twenty carnivores and about ten to thirty small guppies swimming around. By then the diamond drops will become overwhelming and you would have probably complete the level. You can get up to 20,000 coins by doing this in Time mode. That is 1,000 shells every five minutes. Just do not focus on guppies; focus on the larger fish. Hint: ----- Submitted by: vedant if you have walter,amp n angie and want to earn money. buy many guppies . hit amp with walter then give a shock.angie will make them alive. again hit amp with walter and give a shock until you have the money you wanted Hint: ----- Submitted by: jolo before you start a game get presto,angie and amp once amp tells you that he can electrocute your gupies keep buying more guppies and then click amp 3 times and all your guppies will become a diamond and angie and presto will revive your guppies but not all but the cool thing is you got more money trust me Easy Time Trial mode: --------------------- Farther in the game you will unlock Amp the electric eel. In Time Trial you have five minutes to get the most money possible. Spend the entire 4:50 seconds earning fish. They do not need to be grown. Make sure Amp is almost ready to shock the tank. When close to the end, activate Amp's power and he will shock the tank. After that, every fish will be a dead, but will have dropped a diamond. Collect as many diamonds as possible. Every diamond you collect earns 10 shells at the end. Recommended pets: ----------------- The best pets to bring with you on the levels are as follows. -Meryl, the whale, and Prego. -Meryl, the crab, and the pearl person. -Meryl, Prego, and Zorf (if you are unskilled) -Itchy, the crab, and the whale (this is the attack and defense team) -The Skeleton Fish, Meryl, and Prego (one of the best teams) More Shells: ------------ Submitted by: Kyla NOTE: This involves editing a game file. 1. Open the game and create an account named TEST. (if you have more than 2 accounts now, take note of the order they're in and choose an account which you want to copy the shells from (works best if its a high amount of shells)) then minimize the game. 2. Enter the userdata folder usually located at 'C:Program FilesPopCap GamesInsaniquarium Deluxe', right click and arrange them by name, then drag user1.dat and sim1.dat into the middle of the folder (if you have more than 2 accounts then refer to your notes and count down from the top of the list which one your shells are on, then drag that one into the middle. Eg. if it is 3rd on the list, it should be user3.dat and sim3.dat. 3. Go back into your game and go into TEST. Go into the virtual tank and then leave. Minimize the game. (doing so will make the user files appear) 4. Go back into userdata folder, and there should be two new files named user2.dat and sim2.dat (more than two accounts; it should be named the next number on the list. Eg. if there are 6 users in the list (TEST being the last) then it should be user6.dat and sim6.dat. (They could be where the two other files were) 5. Once you find them, delete them. Then copy the two files you moved into the middle of the folder and paste them on your desktop. Rename them to what the two new files were. Eg If you delete the files user6.dat and sim6.dat and the account with the shells on them is user4.dat and sim4.dat (which you should have copied and pasted on the desktop) should be renamed as user6.dat and sim6.dat. (MAKE SURE YOU ONLY DO THIS TWO THE FILES ON THE DESKTOP). 6. Now drag those two files back into the folder. It should look like you never even deleted anything. 7. Go back into the game and change out of TEST, then go back into it and it should have the same amount of shells as the account you copied. You can now move these to that account (type 'give', enter the amount of shells there are, and click on the user to transfer) If you want more shells than that, just repeat these steps. They're quite easy once you get the hang of it and are easy to remember. XD
