Thanks for the feedback everyone. I will try to answer your questions.

memilm,
I would like to stick with the dropdownlist because of the small amount of space it takes in an already crowded window. For the same reason the exit button had to go, since it is not essential for the program.
Ending one program from within another is of course possible but requires a lot of coding, which would take me a long time to accomplish. Much longer anyway than it takes you to hit esc. Sorry, but not.
Tray icon and command-line: yes. Been there, done that before. Will be done after I solved the starfish options.

hpman77,
There was not enough room for the names under the pictures, but I solved that with tooltiptext.
Documentation would require more research than I would like to do right now.
I could not find a command-line option to start the aquarium in windowed mode.

James,
No luck so far with controlling starfish positions. If you just smack it to the glass from a grounded position it ends up under the sand, which is also funny. Maybe I'll just put it in that way. It seems to be able to crawl out fast enough.

Of course all of this still depends on whether Jim does not oppose to my registry tweakings.
