Aquageorama is a 3D simulator for designing aquascapes: arrange stones, stand driftwood, plant aquatic plants and moss, and let fish swim. No water changes, no feeding.

Surface ripples are computed with a wave equation, and the caustics on the floor come from the same waves. Every image on this page is rendered by the app.

FAQ

Is Aquageorama free to play?

Yes, it is free to start. You begin with 1,000 coins and can build a tank using only the free stones, plants and fish. Other materials and additional tanks are unlocked with Aqua Coins, which you can buy on the App Store, Google Play or the web version.

Do I need to install anything?

No. It runs from this site in any browser that supports WebGL 2. There are also apps for iPhone and iPad (iOS 17 or later, A12 chip or newer) and Android (Android 10 or later, 3 GB of memory or more).

Does it simulate plant growth or water quality?

No. There are no water changes, no feeding, and nothing dies. The app focuses on composing an aquascape and enjoying the view.

Can I use it on a computer?

Yes. Select and move objects with the mouse, zoom with the wheel, and use the keyboard to move, rotate and undo. Phones and tablets use touch. The screen is in landscape orientation.

Can I move my data between my phone and computer?

Sign in with Apple or Google to share your tanks and coins across iOS, Android and the web version. Without signing in, your data stays with the account on that device or browser.

What can I do with a finished tank?

Finish mode redraws the tank in high quality so you can watch it and save it as an image. The apps also offer a home screen widget and a live wallpaper, and you can publish to the gallery so others can view your tank in 3D and like it.

What materials are included?

11 kinds of stone, 17 kinds of driftwood, 16 aquatic plants, 13 mosses, 9 gravels and sands, 46 fish and critters, and 16 ornaments. There are 10 tanks, from a 30 cm cube to 120 cm tanks and a glass bowl.

Is it safe to buy coins on the web version?

Web payments are handled by Xsolla, a game payment company acting as the seller. Card details are entered on the Xsolla page and never reach us. Purchases on the web version require signing in with Apple or Google.
