Description:
Now in HD! So Don't Feed the Fish.
As far as aquarium DVDs go, it just doesn't get any better than Ambient Water: The Ultimate Video Aquarium DVD. It boasts crystal clear salt and freshwater aquariums packaged in an easy to carry (and care for) DVD. The visual quality truly is remarkable.
Each of the 10 aquarium scenes are loopable which means you can set the DVD up and leave it running all day. Four of the aquariums are 30 minutes long and six of them are 10 minutes long. Features include 5.1 surround sound, aquarium sound effects (bubbles and such), and relaxation music.
A neat feature is the ability to match up any of the aquariums with any of the sound tracks. What’s cool about this DVD is that it truly utilizes the DVD format. The playlist feature allows you to quickly jump in and watch all of the saltwater tanks, all of the freshwater tanks, or all tanks in a continuous loop. And yes, you create your own custom playlists, which is a lot of fun.

Rating:  - Next best thing....
I work in a 9-1-1 center and bought the video for the call-takers/dispatchers to enjoy. Since we are surrounded by computers we of course can't have a real aquarium near the consoles. I thought this was the next best thing. Everyone seems to enjoy it. The sound quality varies with each selection. On some you will have to keep the volume very high on the TV to hear the "bubbles." Since we keep the TV on mute that is not a major concern for us. The tanks that are the most popular are the ones that have the most active fish.We like the "loop" function that allows the same "tank" to play over and over.The "play all" feature is nice also.

Well i thought that because it said shot in HD, that it would definitely will be high def. but it was not as it said. its ok though. maybe because im playing it using my ps3, but i have a bravia lcd and it just was not what i expected, cant cry about it because you get for wat you pay for. =)
Rating:  - Wont replace a real aquarium, but relaxing for background
I really enjoy the ambient DVD's. I have owned for two years (most if not all) the ambient series of DVD's. I have water, fire, sleep and calm. They all have wonderful visual definition and great music. I like that they allow you to customize the visual and audio, depending on your own mood. For example, the water one will allow you to have sound effects of the tank or reef with or without music or with or without sound effects...whatever. The fire has an option for music off/on and sound effects off/on too. It is good for Holiday party background and you will get both weird looks and questions from people. Especially if you are using this instead of a real fire (when you have an unused fireplace nearby). I also love that if there is a looping play, it is not noticable either because the loop is so long or because it is a wonderfully done fade.
I bought them looking for some night night videos for my children. Reading books seems to energize them and after about 5 bedtime songs, we were looking for something that might make them feel sleepy. I already had an old VCR tape called Solitudes that captures some video of Loon Country and my son would respond to that video by growing very sleepy. So, I started looking for some good cinematagraphy that might also accompany some soothing background music. At the time, my youngest son seemed attracted to fish tanks. I like them too so when I saw the ambient water, I thought ok, this is interesting. They have a website just do a quick ... Read More
Rating:  - fun to watch
the aquarium makes the "big black hole" less obtrusive when company is over and visiting. very restful.
Rating: - Very nice
I too was swayed by the "shot in HD" statement but I knew enuf to know it wudnt be a hi def video on a reg DVD. But put the disk in an upconversion player and its very nice. But now I am thinking I want a similar type video in Blu ray. I was dissapointed in the underwater stingray segment, only bcuz the water seemed murky and the lens of the camera was also dirty. I know this cuz I snorkel every year at my home on a small tropical island part of the Philippines, the water there is much clearer and the fish and coral are way more abundant and colorful. Also the segment wer the ocean waves wer crashing on the rocks seemed to be speeded up, not natural looking. But enuf of the complaining, overall its very nice. esp for the price.
