INTRODUCTION

Acuario is a freeware proyect programmed with Hollywood from Amiga systems and
Windows, this screensaver brings you 2D graphics, but with things that others 3D
screensavers haven't, for example one mermaid and that Acuario is portable, without
that you need install it in your system, you can run it from Pendrive, etc.
Aquarius has the particularity of mixing in the same environment varieties of fish that in
the real life would be impossible of that crayfishes were coexisting together, tropical
fish, fish of sweet water of the river The Amazon, fish of the great barrier of Australia
and even mythological beings as our mermaid Gracie, but it is the advantage of being a
virtual aquarium, you can have what you want without worrying about them health, they
to give of eating, the water to change them etc. or even they that die.
