    Your tank catches up kindly while you’re gone. No streaks, no guilt, no lost progress.

  • Always close by

    Keep a little aquarium on your Home Screen with Small and Medium widgets.

  • One of a kind

    Colorways, sizes and personalities mean no two residents are quite the same.

Inside Poqua

A whole little world, lovingly made.

Painterly residents, gentle routines and quiet surprises that reward a closer look.

Care

Every resident has a story.

Feed and clean, then watch each fish grow from fry to adult with its own size, personality and way of swimming. Check in on their wellbeing anytime and celebrate the small moments that make a tank feel alive.

  • Feeding, cleaning and wellbeing at a glance
  • Seven swimming natures, from Swift to Deep Diver
  • Rare sizes, from tiny XXS to grand XXL

Train

Teach tricks. Earn mastery.

Three disciplines, twenty-one masteries and 147 hand-crafted challenges. Trace routes past orbiting hazards, dash through reef gates or cross a lightless trench by rationing your glow. Every mastery stays with a resident for good.

Nursery

Raise the next generation.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Can’t find what you’re looking for? Visit Support or write to support@poqua.app.

Do my fish ever die?

Never. Residents can get hungry or feel unwell, but health never drops below a safe floor and nobody passes away. A little food and clean water and they’ll recover, every time.

What happens when I’m away?

Your aquarium keeps living gently while you’re gone and catches up when you return. Time away never invalidates progress, so there’s no streak to protect and nothing to feel guilty about.
