Publisher's description of 3D Desktop Aquarium Screensaver
From Useless Creations: Watch as your monitor fills with water and real 3D fishes begin to swim around the screen where you had been just working on. Features: real-time 3D fishes that don't just swim back and forth, but towards you and away from you, up and down; dynamic underwater lighting, if the surface of the water ripples, so does the refracted light; select between tropical salt water fish and fresh water fish or mix them all together; many options for customizing are available. Version 1.1dx uses DirectX for the 3D display which means it should run nicely on more machines.

Editor's review of 3D Desktop Aquarium Screensaver
Aquarium-themed screensavers have been a popular theme for years, but this one gives the idea a quirky twist. As it begins to operate, water seems to pour into your monitor's display space, submerging your desktop. In the space of a few moments, that angry letter from your boss becomes just another bit of waterlogged scenery, surrounded by darting exotic fish. The software provides a good set of features, allowing users to select which fish species to display, as well as how many and how big the fish will be. The trial version allows just three fish of two species. The pleasure in seeing an unpleasant document waterlogged might be short-lived, but we can happily recommend this screensaver as one of the most creative in its class.
