I am not currently active on any pet sims. I have however, played a wide scope of them. I think the first pet sim I ever played is Foopets. After that came Mweors, Wajas, and Chickensmoothie. There was also a wolf rpg one that I played for the longest time that I can't remember the name of. I've played Felisfire, Tygras, Lioden, and Wolfplaygame too. I've never played a fish sim though, but I'll soon find out.

I heard about Auratus Ghoti through Virtualpetlist, and I think I'll be in the Idealist faction.

I'm not much of an expert when it comes to fish, but playing a fish sim will probably help me in that area. I've never had a fish, except for a few times that my brother won a goldfish at a fair, but they died, for we didn't have a real fish tank with the bubble thing that keeps enough oxygen in the water for the fish.

I can draw somewhat good with pencil and paper, but the best I can do on the computer is crude.

I've always wanted to be an Alpha member on a pet sim, but there was always the obstacles of having to pay or invite codes which I never had the right connections. I think it'll be a great experience, being able to watch Auratus Ghoti grow.]]>

Why goldfish? In 2012, I became an accidental goldfish breeder when two goldfish (Poole and New Fish) who I had purchased on my 21st birthday with the intention of spoiling them like the crazy fish mom I am repaid me with a tiny baby fish in the overflow of my 90 gallon tank (LB). Two weeks and several rescue missions later and I had 61 baby goldfish, each with different personalities (seriously, goldfish are some pretty awesome fish and can be very unique in their interpersonal (interfishonal?) relationships. This game is pretty much in dedication to those fish.

Of course, I couldn't just make it a game where you breed goldfish. I'm a huge fan of Xenofiction (like Raptor Red and other stories from the point of view of non-human creatures), so in this game, you, the player, are the goldfish. These goldfish do seem to be uplifted/sufficiently advanced and thus your school is not only concerned with survival in a big pond, but they also are aware of the creatures who created the pond and, for the most part, believe them to be gods. Through breeding, battling, and exploration, your school can please the gods and get rewards in the form of gravel (the main currency), occasional river rocks (the premium currency, bought with cash or earned through different challenges - since I don't necessarily like it when a game makes the premium currency only available through payment), and favor (a currency that is only rewarded through certain tasks that please the gods). all of these currencies can be used to buy things that can enhance your school (or individual fish in the school).

When I'm not working on this game, I am either taking care of the menagerie (fish, birds, and lizards) or spending time with my husband (which sometimes happens while working on the game and a lot of ideas on gameplay have come from him as well).

I'm looking forward to creating a game that all of you will enjoy. Please feel free to give suggestions as well! I'm definitely considering a lot of things with regards to gameplay, breeds, items, markings, etc.!
