 ## Where fry come from

 Each egg from two gold parents has a one-in-four chance to be born a tier above the care it receives. From two diamond parents it is one tier half the time and two tiers one time in ten. That head start is the only way into diamond and purple, and it is only a head start: a fry left hungry slides back down like any other fish. Tap a bred egg before it hatches and choose Incubate to keep it warm until thirty-six hours: from gold parents it is then one tier half the time, and from diamond parents one tier seven times in ten and two tiers one time in five. An egg from parents below gold gets a one-in-five chance to start at bronze instead, which is care, so it still stops at gold. Turn on Auto-incubate eggs in Settings to do this for every bred egg as it is laid, even while you are away.
 
+Every egg remembers its mother and father, so its card shows its family. An adopted parent breeds by its own quality, as before it was adopted, and its fry are ordinary fish. See [Your fish’s card](https://fishies.lol/wiki/mechanics/fish-card).
+
+When a pair lays an egg, hearts rise over the two parents and the egg glows as it settles. A note names the parents, with a button that opens the egg’s card; several eggs at once make one note. Eggs laid while you were away are counted when you come back.

 ## Conditioning
 
 Every aquarium has a Conditioning Box: a small clear box clipped inside the glass near the surface. It is free, and it arrives as a [gift](https://fishies.lol/wiki/mechanics/next-goal) when a fish in that aquarium first reaches silver. Tap it in the water, or open it from the Aquarium Studio, pick a fish and how long it rests, and it swims back out a quality tier higher.

 Colour: every fish has one of six colours, rolled when you buy the egg and passed from a parent to most fry. Sand and kelp sell at the plain price, bleach ×1.1, teal ×1.2, ink ×1.35 and the rare coral ×1.6.
 
-Age adds up to +0.10 for a fish kept fed after it is grown, the full amount once it is ripe. Each bred generation after the first takes 2% off, never more than 10% in all, and a parent bought from the shop starts the line again.
+Age adds to the price of a fish kept fed after it is grown, quickly at first and more slowly later: about +10% after 7 fed days, +19% after 15, +31% after 30 and the full +35% after 45. Only fed days count, by hand or from a feeder: a grown fish left hungry does not age. At 7 fed days a fish becomes Mature, at 30 Seasoned and at 90 an Elder. An Elder adds +5% more, wears silver on its fins and swims a little calmer; the other titles add nothing to the price. The price breakdown on its card always shows its fed days and what is still to come. Each bred generation after the first takes 2% off, never more than 10% in all, and a parent bought from the shop starts the line again.
