The issue is that the Aquarium was built for an old version of Windows. I believe there are two solutions:

Rename the Aquarium to end with .exe instead of .scr and then run the program as an Administrator. Then when you enter the keycode, it will save it properly.
Edit the Windows Registry to put your keycode into the correct/new place.

Some more details:

Roger - make sure you are using the latest version of the program from SereneScreen.com Some Key Code issues were recently fixed.
The problem is that Microsoft keeps making changes to the Registry, like permissions, etc.
