I can’t tell you how many hours of my life I have lost in the last few months by playing Facebook games. There’s FarmVille, Mafia Wars, Restaurant City, and the most recent culprit, Happy Aquarium. I’m not complaining of course – I have a lot of fun with these games and they take so little effort or energy to play. After a long day of work, it’s nice to sit back and just click some buttons absent-mindedly. But, just because I have fun with them, doesn’t mean I want to stand around and play them half as well as I could and waste a bunch of time.
So, when I saw the Happy Aquarium Secrets website the other day, I stopped what I was doing and checked the guide out. It turns out that this guide, which was just released by the mega-guru guide writer, Tony Sanders, is exactly what I was looking for (and didn’t even know it).
Whereas before I was very intently focused on playing the game as much as possible, I eventually wanted to start playing it as well as possible. If I could get the same tasks done faster, why not do it? I could then spend time playing other games or watching TV or talking with my family a bit longer than just through dinner.
Happy Aquarium Secrets made it easy to focus on the game more intently by showing me multiple ways to manage my fish with special training and mating tips, charts for the selection of the right fish that matched my schedule, and the best way to set up my tanks so that I made more coins without having to worry about dead fish or missed opportunities.
In short, Happy Aquarium Secrets turned my casual hobby into a hardcore endeavor and I’m having a blast because of it. If you’re anywhere near the same boat as me, check out Happy Aquarium Secrets and see what it can do for you.

The Best and Worst of the Happy Aquarium Guide Rush
I’ve seen a lot of new games hit the Facebook megasphere and they all have something in common – if they’re big enough, a couple dozen guides follow right behind them. Well, the newest culprit is Happy Aquarium and right now there are a good number of guides hitting the market trying to capitalize on the rabid hunger for information about this game. Unfortunately, for anyone out there who is interested in finding the one perfect guide, it can be hard narrowing them all down to just one good selection.
That’s where I come in. I’m always fond of reading through these kinds of things and learning new tricks, so I’ve been writing the guide authors, checking their strategies, and picking up each guide to see how well each one performs. It turns out that they are all fairly good – at least on a basic level – but there is only one guide that goes above and beyond those basic essentials and provides the information every good player needs to have.
It’s called Happy Aquarium Secrets and it’s written by none other than Tony Sanders – the mega genius behind the FarmVille and Café World guides out there that have been so popular. It’s no surprise that this guy’s guides are so good either – he clearly spends a lot of time and energy going through each one and making sure that they are as well represented as possible.
He covers basic stuff for sure, but the key here is that they contains as many advanced strategies, formulas, and numerical calculations as possible to make it easy for players who may not understand the intimate aspects of this game to choose the right fish and balance their tanks on the way to level 42 and beyond. In short, if you need a good guide for Happy Aquarium, then you should really check out Happy Aquarium Secrets – it goes above and beyond what I would have expected.

Happy Aquarium Anyone?
It’s been a long time since I sat down in front of the first Facebook game I played. I think it was YoVille – back a year or two ago, when everyone kind of joked behind your back when you played these games. Fast Forward to today and everyone is playing at least one of the dozens of Facebook games on the market. My newest love is Happy Aquarium, the original aquarium game from CrowdStar that lets you raise and sell your fish for a nice profit.
There are a lot of clones now, but this one is still my favorite because it focuses more intently on things like getting your fish to learn tricks, mate, and grow familiar with you, the owner. I like the sense of camaraderie there – of controlling your fish tank and having pets instead of commodities. That doesn’t mean you don’t sell your fish off just as frequently, but at least you get to have some fun with them first (and they look so cute).
It’s a pretty simple game too, as long as you don’t want too much out of it. For the first month or so, I was happy to just login each day and swap my fish, train each of them and mate those that could. It was fun and I got to go and see how everyone else had set up their tanks. But, then I started wanting to get some higher level content and I wasn’t making enough coins.
That’s when I checked out Happy Aquarium Secrets – the new guide for Happy Aquarium that was released pretty recently by Tony Sanders. It shows the direct route to setting up the right tanks, how to choose fish, how to manage your XP, coins, and pearls, and how to spend what little time you have if you’re on a schedule. Basically, if you’re playing this game even remotely more than casually, you should check out this guide. It does a stupendous job making your life easier.

The First Guide I’ve Seen Like This
There are a lot of guides out there these days – for everything you can imagine, from how to make a solar panel to playing a basic video game like Happy Aquarium. I bet you can guess which one I want to talk about today. I’ve been neck deep in Happy Aquarium since the day I first saw it on a friend’s newsfeed back in September. It was as an eye catching game with an interesting conceit and it was a lot more fun that I would have expected from this kind of game.
Fast forward a few weeks and CrowdStar has made their game bigger, better and a whole lot more complex as you reach the upper levels. As a result, I was very much intrigued when I saw the Happy Aquarium Secrets guide on another site the other day. I had to see what the pros were saying about their game play style and see if I could make my own methods any more effective.
It turns out, I very much could.
There were a few things I was missing from the way I played the game. It started with the basics. Happy Aquarium is a game that relies on your ability to balance out the values of the fish you are raising with the time they spend in the tank and your own schedule so you can get back and swap them out for new ones (or mate them and create new fish). For those who are unable to create a good schedule, the game gets much harder and takes longer to master.
Happy Aquarium Secrets focuses on creating a good time line that will allow you to play the game as best as possible without wasting huge chunks of effort. For me, that was a massive boost. In short, if you’re a casual player without much need for a guide, feel free to move on. If you’re like me though and need to be the best as much as possible, you should check out Happy Aquarium Secrets, because it’s easily one of the best around.

How Many Happy Aquarium Guides Do You Think We’ll Get?
There are a lot of good reasons someone might need a Happy Aquarium guide to help them out with the biggest and best fish raising game on Facebook. But, after I saw Happy Aquarium Secrets the other day, I started to wonder just how many of these guides we’d really need if they started hitting the market all at once. I figured it would probably have more to do with how good this one guide was, so I decided to check it out and see how it performed.
The first thing I noticed about Happy Aquarium Secrets after picking it up was that it was very well written. I’ve been through a lot of game guides in my days and gamers, god bless them, are not always the best writers in the world. Half the time, they spend their efforts trying to find bigger and better things to do, but they don’t really pour the same energy into writing it all up in a way that is even semi-easy to understand.
So, when I started reading Happy Aquarium Secrets and noticed that it was written in a very simple, straightforward matter, I was pretty happy.
But a good writing style is useless if there isn’t information in there to back it up. And, thankfully, Happy Aquarium Secrets is loaded with good information. From the earliest information helping you get started in the game to the more complex, high level content that shows you how to develop your tanks and choose the perfect fish for each possible time frame you might be playing, this guide has it all.
To put it bluntly, there is very little chance that you’d ever need another guide beyond Happy Aquarium Secrets. It has everything that you could possibly think of for the game. Any other guide would just be a pale imitation.

Making As Many Happy Aquarium Coins as Possible
In a game like Happy Aquarium, the goal becomes almost immediately to gain as many coins as you can as quickly as you can. The higher level fish cost an arm and a leg, but they also reward you for your efforts many times over. If you’re serious about getting those high level fish so you can upgrade your income levels though, you need to spend some time developing your coin count so you can upgrade tanks, buy your three sub-tanks and get all the fish into them you need to keep exploring the upper reaches of the game.
The Role of Happy Aquarium Coins
The coins in Happy Aquarium are designed to help you buy just about anything you need. You’ll get the coins for clicking on your treasure chest each day (and there is a chest in each tank), for selling your fish, for running through the training course and for selling items that you get as gifts or that you don’t need any more. As a result, you will be able to get quite a few good coins for your efforts if you are willing to do as many things as possible each day when you login.
Getting as Many Happy Aquarium Coins as Possible
There is no daily maximum in coins on this game. If you have a lot of friends for example, you could get 20 coins per visit to each tank of your friends. That can add up very fast. The totals will start to rise towards 400 and 500 coins a day if you have enough friends and that is being rather conservative. Toss in the fish you can sell and you can make upwards of 2,000 coins a day there plus the coins from training and beyond.
The real question on your coins is how many you need. For the most part, the decorations you buy will not matter so much as being able to buy higher level fish and upgrade your tanks as you get to higher levels. Once you hit Level 42, you’ll want to be able to buy the high level 1000+ coin fish that will resell for a 100 coin profit each time.
The thing about Happy Aquarium coins is that they are not necessarily hard to get. But, to get the amount you need to be truly successful in a game like this, you need to spend some time and energy developing the right strategies, choosing the right fish, and logging on each day to complete the laundry list of tasks set to you by the game. This is a chore in and of itself. If you can master it, you’ll be well on your way to success, but only if you can do everything correctly.

Getting More Happy Aquarium Neighbors
It’s no secret that most Facebook games are very heavily intent on having you get as many neighbors as possible. Happy Aquarium is no different, so any serious players out there should spend some time developing as many strategies as possible to go out and dig up a good chunk of friends. These Happy Aquarium neighbors allow you do everything from getting faster routes to more tank space and fish to loading up on free gifts and items that can be resold for a solid profit. In short, if you want to level up fast and get some solid coins, you should have as many Happy Aquarium neighbors as possible.
How to Find New Happy Aquarium Neighbors
The first step in finding new neighbors is to exhaust your current friend list. It might seem like a stretch, but you never know when you might find someone that will be interested in playing the game with you. Most people play at least one Facebook game. You would be surprised how easy it can be at times to go out and find someone that is willing to join up with you in the game.
If that doesn’t work, don’t forget that you can go out and find someone willing to swap neighborships with you so that you can both benefit from the relationship. Many people will gladly add people to their friends list for the benefits of a neighbor without actually knowing them. Just make sure that these people are willing to add you so you don’t get refused by a lot of the request you send out – you could easily end up getting yourself banned if you don’t ask first and make sure to mention the game in your requests.
What Your Happy Aquarium Neighbors Can Do for You
Neighbors are a huge part of the game. They let you get more coins from treasure chests, load up on new content from your fellow players in the form of free gifts, and get more XP by cleaning tanks all over Facebook.
Any player out there who wants to rise to the top of the game needs to go out and find as many Happy Aquarium neighbors as they can. There are limits of course to how many you need. Usually, with most games, if you have 25 friends, you’ll be pretty solidly on your way to the upper reaches of what you need from the game. If you cannot find that many players to work with you, don’t fret. Time and persistence will almost always pay off with these strategies.
