Ambient Water 3rd Edition: A Video Aquarium DVD

Summary: virtual fish tank?
Review: I always used to have fish, but between work, my daughter's activities, and the daily parts of life that keep me busy, I simply don't have time for it these days. I bought this DVD in the hopes of creating an ambience in my house similar to the one that I had when I kept a fish tank. Well, there are about 3 good tanks on the DVD. Now, that's not to say that the other 6 tanks aren't good too, but they're more like windows on a boat to me than fish tanks. When did you ever see a shark swimming in your tank, but vanish out the other side like Pac-Man?

In the tanks I would classify as good, I found the fish swimming off-screen and random fade effects a little distracting too. I would have liked the fish to stay within the confines of the picture for an extended period of time. Also, the default music on the DVD is really annoying. The "natural" bubble sounds were pretty good and about all I would want to listen to on this DVD.

Over all, this is a good DVD and does give a good atmosphere in the house... but it falls short of turning your TV into an aquarium.
