Unlimited shells:
—————–
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of
the file before proceeding. You have to first get two users past the first
tank. After that, get one user to rack up some shells (at least 500 to 1000).
Then, type give at the main menu. A screen should appear with your two user
names. There should be one name on top of the other. For example:
Remember the order. Refer to the user name on top as User 1 and the one on
bottom as User 2. Remember the user number for the user with the shells.
Then enter the game folder (usually c:program filespopcap gamesinsaniquarium
deluxe). Enter the userdata folder in the game directory. Copy the user file
(the number being either 1 or 2, depending on which user you want the shells
to be transferred). Copy those user files and paste them in a safe place (such
as the Windows Desktop). Then, give all of the shells from one player to the
other. Exit the game and the move the user file you put in the safe location
back into the userdata folder in the game directory. Select Yes or Yes
to all when asked if you want to overwrite the files. Start the game again.
The user who you gave the shells to will still have those shells, but the
user who gave that person the shells will still have the shells that you
had in the beginning. You can do this repeatedly for unlimited shells.
Secret Virtual Tank Fish: Kilgore:
———————————-
Bought for 50,000 shells, Purple Ultravore.
Silver trophy:
————–
Unlock all four bonus pets, reach the four pet limit, and have the seven pet
virtual tank limit.
Amp the Eel:
————
Amp can only electrocute your guppies, which means that if you have another
type of fish, you will not risk losing the game. Also, you can tell Amp when
to electrocute your tank by clicking on him. He will start by signaling you
when he can electrocute the tank by making this electrocution sound, and you
will see a yellow lightning mark on his body. If you click on him again, it
will turn orange. Another click will make it red, and clicking him again will
result in the shocking of your fish.
Bonus Pet Brinkly:
——————
Get 20,000 shells. Brinkly requires you to feed him. When you do so, he will
toss up stars which can be converted to money, or used as food to feed your
Starcatcher.
Stars are not the only things that Brinkley throws. He will throw money in
any form, including treasure chests. Note: The more valuable the item, the
rarer. Also, he will not throw coins or beetles.
Bonus Pet Nostradamus:
———————-
After buying Brinkly, get 25,000 shells. He drops snot that counts as one
dollar. In virtual tank, the snot also works as food.
Bonus Pet Stanley:
——————
After buying Nostradamus, get 30,000 shells. He will shoot balls at your
enemies and do some serious damage.
Bonus Pet Walter:
—————–
After buying Stanley, get 35,000 shells. You can click on him to punch your
fish or pets around or make your big fish drop a coin.
Bring four pets to a level:
—————————
After buying Walter, get 40,000 shells. With this you can buy the option to
bring up to four pets to any level.
Clyde the Jellyfish: (Story 6 of 33):
————————————-
Clyde, much like Stinky likes collecting money. Unlike Stinky though, doesn’t
collect money for just any lady. He is actually saving up to fianlly get his
mother the operation that she needs. So just remember that every dollar left
over at the end of a level might just go to Clyde’s mother’s operation fund.
Easy shells:
————
When you have Amp the Eel, begin playing the game normally and
accumulate some shells. Then, buy yourself a different type of
fish and keep it alive. Once Amp tells you he can electrocute the
tank, click on him until the lightning mark turns red and spend all
your money on guppies. Once you have used up all your money, click
on Amp. This should make him shock the whole tank and you will see a
lot of diamonds drifting downwards. Repeat this to accumulate more money.
In virtual tank, set it up so you have Clyde, Seymour, and Zorf.
Turn the screen saver on and they will earn you coins. Note: You
must have some medium or large fish.
When in virtual tank, turn on screen saver mode. Allow fish to drop
shells, show coins collected (power save mode is optional), and get
a lot of fish. Then put Preggo, Zorf, and Stinky. Leave it running
to accumulate a large number of shells.
Every day, buy a normal guppy and name it SANTA. It will turn into
a Santa fish and drop bags worth 20 shells. Then, have Meryl, Presto,
and Clyde (or Stinky). Change Presto into Meryl. Every time Meryl or
Presto sings, Santa will drop three bags (each worth 20 shells).
This trick is useful if you want to easily get through the levels to reach
the bonus round to earn more shells for your virtual tank after you have
completed adventure mode. Take Amp, Angie, and Presto as your pets for any
level. In the beginning, change Presto into Prego, so that you can have a
lot of guppies. When Amp is ready to shock the tank, change Presto into
Angie, so that you have two Angies. Then, before you shock, buy as many
guppies as you can. Then, shock the tank. You will get lots of diamonds,
and will lose hardly any of your fish because the Angies will revive all
of your fallen fish. You will most likely only lose about four to five
fish.
When you are playing the game where the shells are falling and you
must click on them and put them in the bucket, just click on any
bags. You will get a massive combo and may even get over 2,000 shells
when you finish.
Save up 15,000 shells. Buy a breeder. Raise it until it fully grows.
Wait for the free fish. Sell the breeder. Then, wait for the baby
fish to grow. Wait to it grows to a large one and it will be worth
10,000 shells. If you are lucky, it will grow into a
King guppy worth 15,000 shells. The breeder can be sold for about
5,000 to 15,000 shells, thus paying for itself.
In tank two in challenge, complete it ten times get 50,000 shells.
The tank three challenge reward is 20,000 shells. Pets: Clyde
(collects shells), Seymour (take into all tanks; slows shells and
increases total quantity gathered), Stanley (attacks all aliens but
is especially helpful by exploding fireballs from Type U alien
before fireball reaches targeted fish), Presto. Presto 1. Start out
by changing into Shrapnel until you collect ten or more medium to
large guppies. Change into Meryl. If there are tremendous amount of
coins to collect after Meryl
sings, change into Stinky to help collect coins then change back
into Meryl. When the alarm sounds, change into an alien fighter
according to the type of pending alien as follows. For Alien Types
D and U, Change into Angie (Stanley will explode most fireballs;
Angie will revive most all fish killed). For Alien Types P and II,
Change into Gash.
In the time trial mode, tank 2, bring in Clyde (Octopus), Meryl
(Mermaid), Seymour (Turtle), and Presto. Start with Presto as Vert
(Skeleton Fish). Collect as much money as you can and buy as many
guppies as fast as possible. When you have the food upgrade options
available, upgrade quickly to the pills. Also upgrade to dropping
the maximum amount of food at a time. Once you have the food upgrades,
buy a few helpers from the egg icon with the question mark.
Try not to go over $800.00. Once you have lots of guppies dropping
coins, change Presto into Stinky (Snail), even if one of the bonus
pets you bought was already Stinky. Then, buy guppies until you find
all you can do is feed fish. Let Clyde and Stinky get your coins.
You should end up with over a hundred thousand by using this system.
If lucky enough to get two Stinkys collecting coins, it is possible
to get over $150,000, which is about 7,000 or 8,000 shells.
Note: Alien Type G is usually the most common alien in this tank;
upgrade the food to pills and maximum pills as fast as possible.
Fish feeding:
————-
When you feed your fish, always drop your food from above.
If your fish are not hungry yet, and then they get hungry, they
can still chase after that piece of food rather than you dropping
another one.
Food upgrade for virtual tank:
——————————
After you buy the alien attracter (50,000 shells and Bubbleator
required first), you can get a level three upgrade food for
20,000 shells.
Gold trophy:
————
Unlock all the stories in challenge mode.
Itchy the Swordfish: (Story 4 of 33):
————————————-
Itchy wasn’t always the grizzled, alien-attacking warrior that he
is today. In fact, he used to be a watercoloring, vegan pacifist.
Until oneday an alien invaded Itchy’s tank. Itchy tried to reason
with the alien, but it wouldn’t listen. The alien ate Itchy’s
friends and this is when Itchy swore a blood oath to kill all aliens.
Meryl the Mermaid: (Story 9 of 33):
———————————–
Meryl delights in thrilling audiences around the world with her
virtuoso singing talent. She has never been able to measure up in
the eyes of carnivores or ultravores though. These fish view her
simply as another unoriginal corporate-
sponsored pop star. To her critics, Meryl would like to point out
that she has never sold out by making a music video.
More shells:
————
To increase your number of shells exponentially, you’ll have to go
into your system files.
First, make a whole ton of users in the game. Ex. name them
USER 1….USER9. Play as one of the users and get some shells
(complete the first tank). Quit the game. Then look for the directory
where you installed Insaniquarium, and
go into the userdata folder. Copy user1.dat and make as many copies
of this file as you have users in the same folder. Ex. if you have 9
users, copy user1.dat 9 times. Then rename them to user2.dat,
user3.dat… etc.
Run Insaniquarium. Type 'give’ in the menu screen and you’ll see a
box with all the users in it. From there, you can transfer all the
shells to one user (preferably the first user). Close the box, and
then in Meryl’s voice bubble, click 'If this is not you…’ and
change users. Repeat shell transfers.
Quit the game and, again, copy user1.dat and repeat the renaming process.
New fish for sale:
——————
The game uses your system date and time for the Virtual Tank. Change
the system time to 11:59:59 p.m. to see the new fish for sale.
You can also make fish grow very fast by feeding them three times
then advancing your clock to 11:59
p.m. and repeating this process seven times. Note: For this to take
effect, you must exit the game and reload it every time you change
your clock.
Niko the Oyster: (Story 2 of 33):
———————————
One question that always comes up when talking to Niko is:
Why doesn’t Niko open his mouth more often? There is a reason
for this. It’s because Niko thinks that opening his mouth may
allow demons to steal his soul. Therefor, he keeps
mouth opening to a minimum.
Prego the Momma Fish: (Story 4 of 33):
————————————–
Everyone knows Prego as the loving mother to a thousand guppies.
But the question on everybody’s mind is: Where did she get that
exquisite scarft? Prego answers, Oh this thing? Son 183,241 gave it
to me… no wait… it was son
183,240. I always get those two mixed up.

down in a freak accident, Rufus became a mercenary for hire, using his
dance skills to amplify his already potent natural fighting ability.

Stories:
——–
Stories can be unlocked in challenge mode. Each challenge tank must
be repeated several times to be able to unlock all 33 stories.
Strange hometowns:
——————
Note: This is only on Virtual Tank. When buying a normal guppy from
the store, give it a strange name. This will cause the fish to have
an awkward hometown. For example, Santa will have a hometown of
North Pole, and Fury will have a hometown of Mars.
Vert the Skeleton: (Story 7 of 33):
———————————–
Some people are afraid of using Vert because they think that he is
an undead product of dark occult forces and therefore may turn against
them at any time. This is simply not true. Obviously, a bad skeleton
would not give you gold coins. He would drop rat poison.
Wadsworth the Whale: (Story 10 of 33):
————————————–
Wadsworth has made quite a comeback since his accident several
years back. Hopelessly addicted to plankton and abbandoned by all
his friends, Wadsworth lost all muscle control one day and accidentally
ate all the fish in his mouth. Since fishing rehab four years ago,
Wadsworth has re-entered himself in Insaniquarium players’ hearts.
Zorf the Seahorse: (Story 5 of 33):
———————————–
Some people wonder, why doesn’t Zorf upgrade to level 3 food?
The reason is that Zorf thinks that most foods are too rich in
fat and artificial preservatives. The level 2 food on the other
hand is raised one hundred percent organically and has no artificial
flavors or additives.
