Tips for a great fish

1

Start with the body

An oval body + a triangle tail reads as a fish instantly.

2

Add an eye & fins

A dot for the eye and a couple of fins boost your rating a lot.

3

Face it left

Fish must face left so they swim correctly in the tank.

4

Use color & patterns

Stripes, spots and bright colors make your fish stand out.
