Growing up
How a fish grows from hatchling to adult, and how long it takes.
From baby to adult
After hatching, a fish is a baby for the first quarter of its growth time, then a junior, and finally an adult once its full growth time has passed. You can watch it get bigger along the way.
Growth times
Each species grows at its own pace, from 3 minutes for a Goby to 1 week for a Grouper. The species catalogue lists every one and can sort by growth time.
Growth follows the server's clock, so a fish keeps growing while you're away.
What changes the pace
A hungry fish stops growing until it's fed again. Cloudy water slows growth too: below 70% water a fish grows more slowly, down to 60% of its normal speed at the very worst. Neither ever undoes growth that has already happened.
Once it's grown
Only adults can be sold. There's no rush: an adult is happy to keep swimming until you decide, as long as it's still fed.
