Confused on some items

I am confused how some fish are purchased for 200,000 and sold for the same amount at level 5 (red seahorse).  I was thinking it would have a huge resale value, but instead I needed to wait a week to sell for the same amount as the purchase price?  Same with the clown trigger fish.  I am waiting to just get the purchase price back.   Very disappointing.  You show the sale price at level 2, but I think you need to show the final sale price at level 5.  Or am I missing something?

I am also wondering if the auto feeder for vacations will feed the predator fish, or will they all die when I go on vacation.  If friends can't feed them for you then you either can't go on vacation- Ever, or you need to not collect predator fish, or you need to buy the slowest growing fish ever to keep them at a level 1 size so the fish can eat them as they need, but still would be difficult because you are limited to number of fish in the tank so you can't stock with too many fish.  There should be a hold button- where fish don't grow, don't die, or get sick- or be able to put certain fish into a holding tank.  The only other way around it would be to sell them for money, but then you need to buy them back for diamonds.  Fish bought with diamonds should be sold for more diamonds, not money.  



My next question is why you stop the tank buying at 2 until you have convinced 10 of your friends to get a tank.  I have lots of friends, but because there isn't a real point or challenge to this game I have not found too many people willing to add it.  So the only other choice is to add total strangers to your personal facebook account as friends which would have access to your photos, etc. I am not willing to do that, therefore, I am stuck at two tanks forever- regardless of what level I get to.

I love the graphics and find the idea of the game fun, but as I'm seeing these issues I'm wondering if investing real time into fake fish is worth it if there isn't a real way of advancing in this game, or if all my fish will die when I leave my computer for a week?

1) Sell price is shown for level 2 as some players sell the fish before they reach level 5.

2) The Auto-feeder feeds every fish or pet in the tank.

3) The 'hold' button is maybe a good idea, I'll suggest it.

4) Newt or Axolotl could help you with cancelling the 'number of friends' requirements

5) All you need to advance is get xp points. You can do this any time and no matter how many diamonds or friends you've got.

1) I understand that because you can sell at level 2 that you would post that, but you should also show the maximum sales price (level 5 price), because there are fish that sell for the purchase price- so those fish don't gain you any money.  

2) That is great to know that the predators would not die, I assumed they needed live fish put into the tank as they get hungry, because they don't eat the pellets once they start eating fish.  

3) Some people like me will be gone for over 2 weeks on vacation, so auto feeder still may not do the trick if a friend can't fill my feeder or buy live fish.  The hold/Pause game would be great.  

4) I will try to buy a Newt, is that explained anywhere?  The lock on the tank just said I needed more friends.  

5) Guess I was confused on the xp points opening up areas, because I am at a pretty high level and a lot of things are still locked because of number of friends.  I don't think that should be a requirement of the game at all.  I'm sure kids are attracted to this game, and the idea of them needing to invite strangers to be friends just to advance scares me.  I know for most people who play are just fish lovers, but you never know.  Please consider removing this, as it really isn't a vital part of owning fish.  The game should advance by challenges, tasks, and collecting items for your tank (not friends).

6) Maybe a great way to attract people is to create a button that would allow you to take a picture of your fish and have the option to upload to your cover photo/or wall.  Then when people click on the photo it could have a link back to the game/app.  Just an idea, don't know if that's possible.

The pets' advantages are described in the Rules under the game and in the Store.

The Auto-feeder 'Vacation' feeds your fish for 30 days.
