BIOTOPE - Aquarium Simulator is the first and only photorealistic aquarium simulator to date. Biotope makes it possible to create populations of fishes and plants and actively influence their complete life cycle.

Face strategic challenges and manage the expansion and operation of the aquarium, with a limited budget. Cultivate, breed and trade in fishes and plants.

Biotope realistically simulates chemical and biological parameters. Keep an eye on values such as temperature, pH, carbonate hardness, nitrates, and ammonia, so your aquarium will provide the perfect living conditions for your fish.

Use authentic equipment such as filters pumps and lamps to preserve your biotope and create ideal living conditions for your fishes and plants.

Many decorative objects are available to you to make beautiful and unusual biotopes. Depending on the quality and performance of the individual components, their durability and impact on the entire ecosystem of the aquarium will change.
