Two questions about TapFish

[droidros]

So funny, for some reason I assumed most here are guys lol (i'm a girl btw)

I updated tapfish today and I have a Glow Longnose in my breeding tank thats ready to move to the tank (I can see the fish) but it wont let me move it! it just gives me the option to speed up or cancel I restarted my phone, cleared the cache and it still wont let me move it

I'm having the exact same issue with two breeding tanks since updating!

 

[raynoldsk]

I am a girl. And getting seriously youth-challenged =)

I moved the whole game onto the phone, then moved it to the sd card again, and more of it is off the phone, but still over 7 mg is still there. Grrrr! I wonder if some of that is something cached? I clear the cache regularly, though. Might have to bite the bullet and root just to use the sd card for more.

Updating now. I'll see if I get the auto scroll or not. Sounds nice!

I also do not have the free scribbled angel...but I have an extra (fat-fingered purchase) that I wish I could give to one of y'all.

I had some of my breeding tanks finish this afternoon and all of them showed a fully bred fish but I also only had the option to Speed Up.

However when I tapped Speed Up it moved the fish to my tank. So I think its just an issue of the wrong button graphic. Looks like they sharpened the font on the main menu too so I'd imagine at some point during the update they messed up the Move to Tank button and swapped out another graphic.

 

[droidros]

Thanks, Akwatic - it worked for me! Must be just the wrong graphic button.

Are you a boy or a girl?

Awww crap I got fed up and just clicked cancel, I got the trophy for it but not the fish oh well... good to know i'm not the only one though, I also dont have the scrolling...

Awww too bad we can't trade raynoldsk, I've got tanks of angelfish now lol, I'd give you several for sure. its back to normal now though

 

[raynoldsk]

Creep me out! The Tapfish fish on the start-up screen now looks like someone I know. :/

I do have the scroll thing, but only if I start in the first tank. It seems to go to the last tank I visited. If I scroll up to the first tank, it follows me. Cool!

I also had much less trouble selling off the tanks of filler fish individually. If they did something to fix that, I thank them. It may just be that my hands are finally warm, though.

 

[Akwatic]

I am a 'boy' but I love TapFish!

 

[droidros]

I am a 'boy' but I love TapFish!

That's okay-you're allowed!

I'm glad it's not just a girly thing.

 

[droidros]

I'm finally able to visit codyvander and chickibum! They must have fixed the code.

Can anybody tell me how to go to the Facebook Tap Fish Android page using the phone app? I cannot get there using the app. I have to use the web browser on my PC.

The Facebook app pretty much sucks. I haven't messed with it since I got my Thunderbolt, but on my Droid it gave me a "Go to full page" (or something similar) option that would bring the page up in my browser. It was toward the bottom of the page.

Have you tried using a direct link instead of searching for it in the app? That might work.

Here's a list of all the fish by profit. Since there is no real good way to equate fish bucks to coins, I've left off all fish buck fish. The numbers are buy for, sell for, sell for with happiness bonus (90% or higher), profit with happiness bonus, time to grow, and profit per day. It's a bit jumbled because I copied it from a spread sheet, but it should still be useable.

Thanks, that works. I still haven't figured out the app yet. Mind you, haven't really figured out Facebook on the computer yet.

 

[droidros]

This is probably a dumb question, but I don't suppose there are any shortcuts to puchasing multiple decorations, are there? I see some people have highly decorated tanks. I tend to keep mine to a minimum (91 - 93% for selling tanks and far less for non-seling) because it's such a pain to buy stuff. To purchase and place one simple clam, for example, you have to tap:

Menu - Store - decorations - tank basics - scroll to clam and tap buy - tap and drag to move, etc.
That's a minimum of 6 taps for each clam. If you don't know what you want, it takes a lot more tapping and scrolling to shop around.

Okay, I just now got fish bred since the update and I didn't get the move to tank option, either.

Just click speed up--it moves to the tank, hungry and swimming, and it doesn't take away fish bucks.

(Experimented after I emailed Gameview and asked about it...)

 

[raynoldsk]

Droidros, I don't know of any way to do that, but it would be nice!

I have to move all the fish to inventory if I but a decoration, otherwise I end up using Saxon words trying to put the decoration where I want it. So my tanks are not highly decorated....

 

[raynoldsk]

And to add another car to my freight-train of posts:

I just want to say that I am enjoying the game a lot more on my phone than I did on the iPad, even though the iPad game had nice big tanks that I would see better. And it is because of this thread =). It does make it more fun to have friends to play with!

 

[Witches]

I am currently playing as well, only lvl 12 so far but its been only a few days. Added a few of you as friends. The different breeds are really neat to see.

 

[Witches]

So far I have 10 tanks. 6 for coin, 2 for XP. Bought two of the memorial day fish and sold for a quick coin start. As far as I can see butterfly till 12, chromis till 16, then dwarf is the money order. Anything else I need to know?

That sounds about right. Pretty decent coin tank/XP tank ratio as well. You'll want to make sure you can afford the better fish when you get to them. Good job. Add me (codyvander82) if you want a friend.

That's a minimum of 6 taps for each clam. If you don't know what you want, it takes a lot more tapping and scrolling to shop around.

I just decorate all my tanks. I use the tiered elestos for 11% (you can only get 11% happiness from plants and 11% from non-plants) since they are easier to get at than the cheap decorations and then thrown in one starfish. It only takes 765 coins to get to 88% happiness and the Love bonus will make you hit 90%. It's a lot easier than moving decorations or fish to get the bonus, and you can make it back in a hurry. You can sell a tank of Banded Butterflies for 9,500 but if you spend the 765 for decorations, you will make 11,400. That offsets the cost of decorations on your first time through. It's well worth the coins to save the time it takes to move stuff around.

 

[Witches]

Yeah, I figured out the decoration thing. 11 starfish and 3 off each beginning plant put me at 99% on all tanks. I just love then sell. And ill be sure to add you.

 

[Witches]

Excuse me sir, there is a law preventing you from taking all the known swordfish in the world and dropping them in fish tanks..... that or you fed them viagra.... sheesh

Haha! I do have quite a few. It's for my "get a ton of coins before eels at level 65" strategy. I'm focusing on money over XP for a while, so I'm dumping SF into the tanks until I have 37 to sell (it takes 37 sold SF to buy 25 Kribs), then doing Kribs until I have 34 to sell (34 sold Kribs=25 Scott Fairy Fish). Then I'll stick with SFF for a while. I figure I'll start buying XP tanks after I fill all the ones I have with SFF.

 

[Witches]

Im noticing the money climb a little more myself. When i lvled to 12 i was almost short in filling my tanks with chromis. So i added 3 more coin tanks. Its alot of cleaning though. Evil.
