# Next goal and gifts
|
|
|
|
_The one line that says what to do next, how to skip it, and the gear that arrives as a gift when you first need it._
|
|

|
## The Next goal line
|
|
|
|
Under the gauge at the top left of your aquarium, one line says what to try next: a small medallion, the goal in a sentence, and how far along you are. It is never two things at once, and it never invents work: every goal is a [quest](https://fishies.lol/wiki/mechanics/quest-chains) the game already holds, or the next level's unlock.
|
|
|
|
It picks the quest that follows a gift you just received first, then whatever you have already started, then the story's next step, then the first step of a chain you have opened. Click it to open the quest window. Hungry fish and dirty glass stay with [notifications](https://fishies.lol/wiki/mechanics/notifications), never here.
|
|
|
|
## Skipping a goal
|
|
|
|
Ignoring a goal costs nothing: a skipped goal still completes and pays the moment you meet it.
|
|
|
|
- The small × on the line says Not now: that goal steps aside for a day and the next one takes its place. Once every goal has stepped aside, the line folds to its medallion: press it to open the line again.
|
|
- Right-click the line, or press and hold on a touch screen, to skip that goal for good, ask for fewer goals from its chain, or turn the whole line off. The quest window has the same buttons, and brings a skipped goal back.
|
|
- Settings, under Game, switches the Next goal line and the quest rail on and off. It is on for everyone until you turn it off.
|
|
|
|
## Gear that arrives as a gift
|
|
|
|
The first Sponge Filter, Glass Heater and Conditioning Box are free, and none of them is in your aquarium before it means anything. Each arrives at the moment you first need it, already installed and already working, with a card that waits for a quiet moment before it appears.
|
|
|
|
A keeper who already owns the gear gets no card. A gift never arrives twice.
|
|
|
|
- Sponge Filter: the first time you clean the glass, or as soon as the water in your first aquarium starts to cloud.
|
|
- Glass Heater: when the first fish that reads temperature is in an aquarium. The tutorial fish and the legendary fish do not.
|
|
- Conditioning Box: when a fish in that aquarium first reaches silver.
