+## Racing in the Arena
+
+From the week of 2 November 2026 the Arena's course rewards a skilful line. Golden rings threaded one after another build a chain: every ring in a row gives a stronger, longer burst, up to six, and a ring threaded through its middle gives a little more and shows Perfect. Missing a ring on your line or a knock breaks the chain. Currents, bands of fast water, run along the risky lines: through the tight gap between two jellyfish or hugging the edge of a long rock. Twice the course splits into two or three lanes behind reef walls, each with its own rings, currents and hazards. Climbing or diving hard costs a little speed, so a fish that turns early and swims a smooth line keeps more of it.

Times are measured to the millisecond, and two equal times go to whoever swam theirs first. The rewards are the same as before.

 ## Swimming place to place
 
 Out in one place, every other place is a swim away: open the Map in the corner and pick it, and you travel there with the same fish. Home on the same map swims you back. Your aquarium stays safe and keeps growing while you're out.
