Well, I readed this thred about three times, and just now realized one poing, about the newbies inside the 3d card configurations, and the options they couldn't understand... may I suggest, if it doesn't take too many kbytes (like particle bubbles instead of that textures), to be in a separate config dialog. Something like the "Advanced" button on some games, and by default, all those settings would be set to off, so assure the best compatibility. Then, ppl able to use them, can go there and turn on the options they want to see, and check if their card can handle them.
There coud be also some presets, default to max compatibility, low, medium, high and highest detail, that would turn on/off some of the options.

Just an idea, but that way ppl with incredible 3d card, or advanced user, or newbies, could have the aquarium working as they want

a nice way to keep everybody happy

It's my opinion

what do you think?
