Fish World Beginners


Getting started – When you first load the Fish World game, you will be asked to walk through a tutorial. This tutorial will explain the basic things. You can read through this tutorial by clicking Next or you can close it by clicking the X at the top right corner. Then you tank will load and you will see the fish that are already hatched for you.
Hatching fish – Hatching fish, also known as buying eggs, is where you will want to start in this game. You need to hatch fish to make money. You need money to do other things like buy tanks and more fish. To hatch fish, you will need to click the fish eggs icon in the toolbar. When the box opens, select the category of fish you want to view. If you are just starting out, it is best to go with the starter fish. They grow faster and they are cheaper to buy. Click the fish you want to buy. When the box closes, start clicking your tank. Every time you click your tank, you are hatching a new egg. Hatch as many eggs as you want. To stop hatching, click the white arrow in your toolbar.
Catching fish – To catch your fish, you can do one of two things. One, you can click a fish and click the Sell Fish button in your bottom toolbar. Two, you can click the Sell My Fish button and all of your adult fish will be sold.
Feeding your fish – To feed your fish, you will need to click the food icon in your toolbar. Once you have selected the food toolbar, you will need to click the tank to sprinkle the food. The fish will then eat the food. Normally, one feeding will take care of all the fish. However, if you have a lot of fish, you may need to do two feedings. Simply click the food and click the tank again. It does not cost you anything to feed your fish. It is important that you keep your fish fed. If you do not feed your fish, they will die.
Cleaning your Fish World tank – You will need to clean your tank at least once a day. Don’t worry about cleaning your tank spotless all of the time. The reason for that is, if you clean your tank, leave your tank, and come back in about 10 minutes, the tank will be dirty again. So, no need in trying to keep it spotless. Just clean it once a day so that it doesn’t get overrun with algae and you will earn points and money for cleaning it. To clean it, click the sponge in your toolbar and run your mouse over the tank until it is clean. Then click your mouse again to place the sponge back in your toolbar.
Flushing fish – If your fish dies, you can flush them to empty your tank. To flush your fish, you will need to click the Flush All Dead Fish button. This button is located in your toolbar at the bottom.
Reviving friends’ fish – If you visit your friends’ tanks and their fish are dead, you can revive the fish for them. You will need to click a fish and click the Revive button in your bottom toolbar. You will need to repeat this step for every dead fish you want to revive.
Revive your fish – You can also ask friends to revive your fish. You can do this by sending them a message through Facebook or you can click the Revive Fish button at the bottom of your toolbar and that will post a request on your Facebook wall asking your friends to help you. Your friends can then click on the post and they will be redirected to your fish tank.
Fish medication – In your supply store, you will find a Fish Medication category. This is where you go to buy medication for your fish. There are four different medications to choose from. Three of them can be purchased with coins and the last one will have to be bought with fish bucks. To purchase the medication, open your supply store, click Medication and select the medication you want to buy.

Place the glove on the fish you want to steal and click it. You cannot steal fish that was bought with fish bucks and you cannot steal high price fish.
Selling stolen fish – When you steal fish, you have to wait four hours before you can sell the fish. The reason for that is, your friends have four hours to come back to your tank and get their fish. If they come back within four hours to get their fish back, you have lost your stolen fish.
You can’t steal a stolen fish – Have you tried to steal a fish and it says “You can’t steal a stolen fish”? That’s because the fish you are trying to steal from someone was originally stolen. You can’t steal fish that have already been stolen in Fish World.
Giving treats to your friends’ fish – To make a little extra coins, give your friends’ fish a treat when you are visiting. To give them a treat, click the Treat icon in the toolbar. Then click the tank to drop the treat in the water. The fish will scramble for it.

Fish World Strategy


Feed fish before selling – Don’t sell your fish if they are hungry, feed them first. If you try to sell fish that are hungry, money will be deducted from your account.
Answer the call for help – When you get a pop up that one of your friends’ needs help, accept the request. That will earn you more money and experience points.
Buy an algae eater – When you reach level 30, invest in an algae eater, this will save you time. Having an algae eater will keep you from having to constantly clean your tank.
Buy highly profitable fish – Each fish is worth a certain amount of money when sold. Take some time to figure out how much each fish costs and what they sell for. Finding the most profitable fish can help you rake in tons of Fish World coins.
Sell extra items – I would suggest that you sell items that you no longer want or need. Doing so will earn you extra coins that can be used for something you actually need. For instance, if you start getting an abundance of gifts that you don’t need turn around and sell them off for extra Fish World cash.
Don’t beg – I’m frequently bothered by people begging for Fish World items and other Facebook game items when I open Facebook chat. This is very annoying and you shouldn’t do it. If you need a game item, post it to your profile feed and people will be more willing to help.
Plan around your schedule – The type and number of fish you have determines how often you’ll have to feed and clean your tank. If you know you’re not going to be able to play for a day or so, you may want to sell off your fish or ask your friends for help while you are away.
Add more tanks – Expanding your Fish World enterprise by adding more tanks is a smart thing to do. This allows you to buy more fish, earn more experience points and Fish World coins, and ultimately reach Fish World levels faster.
Be kind to Fish World friends – Helping your Fish World friends and sending gifts to them is a great way to earn experience points and extra Fish World coins. Not only will this help you level up faster but assisting your Fish World neighbors and sending them gifts encourages them to do the same for you.

Try another browser – If you browser is super slow you may want to try using another one while playing Fish World. Opera and Google Chrome are know for loading web pages quickly and producing less problems when playing Facebook games compared to other web browsers.
Include a message when befriending – When you send out an invitation for Facebook users to join you on Fish World, include a short message like “Fish World” or “Fish World add”. This tells them why you are inviting them and you’ll have much more success at growing your list of Fish World friends.
Become a fan of Fish World – Adding Fish World friends is an important part of the game because it allows you to accumulate points and coins as well as level up fast. There are lots of Fish World fan pages and groups that can help you increase your list of Fish World neighbor by simply joining and posting your profile link requesting people add you.
