Insaniquarium hints

Unlimited shells
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the
file before proceeding. You have to first get two users past the first tank.
After that, get one user to rack up some shells (at least 500 to 1000). Then,
type give at the main menu. A screen should appear with your two user names.
There should be one name on top of the other. For example:

Remember the order. Refer to the user name on top as "User 1" and the one on
bottom as "User 2". Remember the user number for the user with the shells. Then
enter the game folder (usually c:program filespopcap gamesinsaniquarium deluxe).
Enter the "userdata" folder in the game directory. Copy the user file (the
number being either 1 or 2, depending on which user you want the shells to be
transferred). Copy those user files and paste them in a safe place (such as the
Windows Desktop). Then, give all of the shells from one player to the other.
Exit the game and the move the user file you put in the safe location back into
the "userdata" folder in the game directory. Select "Yes" or "Yes to all" when
asked if you want to overwrite the files. Start the game again. The user who you
gave the shells to will still have those shells, but the user who gave that
person the shells will still have the shells that you had in the beginning. You
can do this repeatedly for unlimited shells.

Secret Virtual Tank Fish: Kilgore
Bought for 50,000 shells, Purple Ultravore.

Silver trophy
Unlock all four bonus pets, reach the four pet limit, and have the seven pet
virtual tank limit.

Amp the Eel
Amp can only electrocute your guppies, which means that if you have another type
of fish, you will not risk losing the game. Also, you can tell Amp when to
electrocute your tank by clicking on him. He will start by signaling you when he
can electrocute the tank by making this electrocution sound, and you will see a
yellow lightning mark on his body. If you click on him again, it will turn
orange. Another click will make it red, and clicking him again will result in
the shocking of
your fish.

Bonus Pet Brinkly
Get 20,000 shells. Brinkly requires you to feed him. When you do so, he will
toss up stars which can be converted to money, or used as food to feed your
Starcatcher.

Stars are not the only things that Brinkley throws. He will throw money in any
form, including treasure chests. Note: The more valuable the item, the rarer.
Also, he will not throw coins or beetles.

Bonus Pet Nostradamus
After buying Brinkly, get 25,000 shells. He drops snot that counts as one
dollar. In virtual tank, the snot also works as food.

Bonus Pet Stanley
After buying Nostradamus, get 30,000 shells. He will shoot balls at your enemies
and do some serious damage.

Bonus Pet Walter
After buying Stanley, get 35,000 shells. You can click on him to punch your fish
or pets around or make your big fish drop a coin.

Bring four pets to a level
After buying Walter, get 40,000 shells. With this you can buy the option to
bring up to four pets to any level.

Clyde the Jellyfish: (Story 6 of 33)
Clyde, much like Stinky likes collecting money. Unlike Stinky though, doesn't
collect money for just any lady. He is actually saving up to fianlly get his
mother the operation that she needs. So just remember that every dollar left
over at the end of a level might just go to Clyde's mother's operation fund.

Easy shells
When you have Amp the Eel, begin playing the game normally and accumulate some
shells. Then, buy yourself a different type of fish and keep it alive. Once Amp
tells you he can electrocute the tank, click on him until the lightning mark
turns red and spend all your money on guppies. Once you have used up all your
money, click on Amp. This should make him shock the whole tank and you will see
a lot of diamonds drifting downwards. Repeat this to accumulate more money.

In virtual tank, set it up so you have Clyde, Seymour, and Zorf. Turn the screen
saver on and they will earn you coins. Note: You must have some medium or large
fish.

When in virtual tank, turn on screen saver mode. Allow fish to drop shells, show
coins collected (power save mode is optional), and get a lot of fish. Then put
Preggo, Zorf, and Stinky. Leave it running to accumulate a large number of
shells.

Every day, buy a normal guppy and name it SANTA. It will turn into a Santa fish
and drop bags worth 20 shells. Then, have Meryl, Presto, and Clyde (or Stinky).
Change Presto into Meryl. Every time Meryl or Presto sings, Santa will drop
three bags (each worth 20 shells).

This trick is useful if you want to easily get through the levels to reach the
bonus round to earn more shells for your virtual tank after you have completed
adventure mode. Take Amp, Angie, and Presto as your pets for any level. In the
beginning, change Presto into Prego, so that you can have a lot of guppies. When
Amp is ready to shock the tank, change Presto into Angie, so that you have two
Angies. Then, before you shock, buy as many guppies as you can. Then, shock the
tank. You will get lots of diamonds, and will lose hardly any of your fish
because the Angies will revive all of your fallen fish. You will most likely
only lose about four to five fish.

When you are playing the game where the shells are falling and you must click on
them and put them in the bucket, just click on any bags. You will get a massive
combo and may even get over 2,000 shells when you finish.

Save up 15,000 shells. Buy a breeder. Raise it until it fully grows. Wait for
the free fish. Sell the breeder. Then, wait for the baby fish to grow. Wait to
it grows to a large one and it will be worth 10,000 shells. If you are lucky, it
will grow into a
King guppy worth 15,000 shells. The breeder can be sold for about 5,000 to
15,000 shells, thus paying for itself.

In tank two in challenge, complete it ten times get 50,000 shells.

The tank three challenge reward is 20,000 shells. Pets: Clyde (collects shells),
Seymour (take into all tanks; slows shells and increases total quantity
gathered), Stanley (attacks all aliens but is especially helpful by exploding
fireballs from Type U alien before fireball reaches targeted fish), Presto.
Presto 1. Start out by changing into Shrapnel until you collect ten or more
medium to large guppies. Change into Meryl. If there are tremendous amount of
coins to collect after Meryl
sings, change into Stinky to help collect coins then change back into Meryl.
When the alarm sounds, change into an alien fighter according to the type of
pending alien as follows. For Alien Types D and U, Change into Angie (Stanley
will explode most fireballs; Angie will revive most all fish killed). For Alien
Types P and II, Change into Gash.

In the time trial mode, tank 2, bring in Clyde (Octopus), Meryl (Mermaid),
Seymour (Turtle), and Presto. Start with Presto as Vert (Skeleton Fish). Collect
as much money as you can and buy as many guppies as fast as possible. When you
have the food upgrade options available, upgrade quickly to the pills. Also
upgrade to dropping the maximum amount of food at a time. Once you have the food
upgrades, buy a few helpers from the egg icon with the question mark. Try not to
go over $800.00. Once you have lots of guppies dropping coins, change Presto
into Stinky (Snail), even if one of the bonus pets you bought was already
Stinky. Then, buy guppies until you find all you can do is feed fish. Let Clyde
and Stinky get your coins. You should end up with over a hundred thousand by
using this system. If lucky enough to get two Stinkys collecting coins, it is
possible to get over $150,000, which is about 7,000 or 8,000 shells. Note: Alien
Type "G" is usually the most common alien in this tank; upgrade the food to
pills and maximum pills as fast as possible.

Fish feeding
When you feed your fish, always drop your food from above. If your fish are not
hungry yet, and then they get hungry, they can still chase after that piece of
food rather than you dropping another one.

Food upgrade for virtual tank
After you buy the alien attracter (50,000 shells and Bubbleator required first),
you can get a level three upgrade food for 20,000 shells.

Gold trophy
Unlock all the stories in challenge mode.

Itchy the Swordfish: (Story 4 of 33)
Itchy wasn't always the grizzled, alien-attacking warrior that he is today. In
fact, he used to be a watercoloring, vegan pacifist. Until oneday an alien
invaded Itchy's tank. Itchy tried to reason with the alien, but it wouldn't
listen. The alien ate Itchy's friends and this is when Itchy swore a blood oath
to kill all aliens.

Meryl the Mermaid: (Story 9 of 33)
Meryl delights in thrilling audiences around the world with her virtuoso singing
talent. She has never been able to measure up in the eyes of carnivores or
ultravores though. These fish view her simply as another unoriginal corporate-
sponsored pop star. To her critics, Meryl would like to point out that she has
never sold out by making a music video.

More shells
To increase your number of shells exponentially, you'll have to go into your
system files.

First, make a whole ton of users in the game. Ex. name them USER 1....USER9.
Play as one of the users and get some shells (complete the first tank). Quit the
game. Then look for the directory where you installed Insaniquarium, and
go into the userdata folder. Copy user1.dat and make as many copies of this file
as you have users in the same folder. Ex. if you have 9 users, copy user1.dat 9
times. Then rename them to user2.dat, user3.dat... etc.

Run Insaniquarium. Type 'give' in the menu screen and you'll see a box with all
the users in it. From there, you can transfer all the shells to one user
(preferably the first user). Close the box, and then in Meryl's voice bubble,
click 'If this is not you...' and change users. Repeat shell transfers.

Quit the game and, again, copy user1.dat and repeat the renaming process.

New fish for sale
The game uses your system date and time for the Virtual Tank. Change the system
time to 11:59:59 p.m. to see the new fish for sale. You can also make fish grow
very fast by feeding them three times then advancing your clock to 11:59
p.m. and repeating this process seven times. Note: For this to take effect, you
must exit the game and reload it every time you change your clock.

Niko the Oyster: (Story 2 of 33)
One question that always comes up when talking to Niko is: Why doesn't Niko open
his mouth more often? There is a reason for this. It's because Niko thinks that
opening his mouth may allow demons to steal his soul. Therefor, he keeps
mouth opening to a minimum.

Prego the Momma Fish: (Story 4 of 33)
Everyone knows Prego as the loving mother to a thousand guppies. But the
question on everybody's mind is: Where did she get that exquisite scarft? Prego
answers, "Oh this thing? Son 183,241 gave it to me... no wait... it was son
183,240. I always get those two mixed up."

Rufus the Fiddler Crab: (Story 8 of 33)
Rufus started his career as a dance instructor, teaching people how to do his
pattented pop and lock aim routine. When his dance studio burned down in a freak
accident, Rufus became a mercenary for hire, using his dance skills to amplify
his already potent natural fighting ability.

Santa fish
Buy a guppy from the virtual store and name it SANTA . The guppy will turn red
and white and sing Christmas songs. It will also drop bags worth 20 shells.
Note: This can only be done once.

Stinky the Snail: (Story 1 of 33)
Stinky knew from an early age that he was different from the other snails. He
had the fever, the money fever. He was all about collecting money. But what does
Stinky need with all that money? Stinky answers, "It impresses the ladies."

Stories
Stories can be unlocked in challenge mode. Each challenge tank must be repeated
several times to be able to unlock all 33 stories.

Strange hometowns
Note: This is only on Virtual Tank. When buying a normal guppy from the store,
give it a strange name. This will cause the fish to have an awkward hometown.
For example, "Santa" will have a hometown of "North Pole", and "Fury" will have
a hometown of Mars.

Vert the Skeleton: (Story 7 of 33)
Some people are afraid of using Vert because they think that he is an undead
product of dark occult forces and therefore may turn against them at any time.
This is simply not true. Obviously, a bad skeleton would not give you gold
coins. He would drop rat poison.

Wadsworth the Whale: (Story 10 of 33)
Wadsworth has made quite a comeback since his accident several years back.
Hopelessly addicted to plankton and abbandoned by all his friends, Wadsworth
lost all muscle control one day and accidentally ate all the fish in his mouth.
Since fishing rehab four years ago, Wadsworth has re-entered himself in
Insaniquarium players' hearts.

Zorf the Seahorse: (Story 5 of 33)
Some people wonder, why doesn't Zorf upgrade to level 3 food? The reason is that
Zorf thinks that most foods are too rich in fat and artificial preservatives.
The level 2 food on the other hand is raised one hundred percent organically and
has no artificial flavors or additives.
