Raid762 is an unknown quantity at this point
I came across this today, The Lifeglobe Goldfish Aquarium beta, it looks quite nice.
check out http://lifeglobe.com for a demo and the latest news
It looks like its built on the Marine Aquarium2 engine but with some enhancements to the background articles etc.
3 fish and 3 minutes before it blacks out but you will get the idea.
Cant wait for it to go full version.

I just tested out the demo, thanks for the link. During the demo the fish stayed by the screen/window the entire time. You know from one corner then to the other side and so on. I wanted to see it swim around the rock or something showing some depth, but never did. The graphics are VERY nice.

I didn't read anything about being able to feed the fish, like in Aqua Real. My 4 year old daughter, using Aqua Real, feeds her fish everyday and night. At one point I thought that she really thought they were real, so after her and her brothers got back from a sleep over at their grandparents house I said, "While you were gone I feed your fish for you, they were really hungry"

She replied, "Dad they are only pretend"

I felt dumb!

This looks really good but it will only work in software mode so no direct x acceleration is possible so it runs really slowley.

@KingCobra: these screensavers are getting more realistic all the time, after watching the serensoft aquariam one through my TV for a bit I start to think it's real :P
