#2: "Or you could go onto youtube and watch a genuine underwater landscape on full screen."

Some people prefer screensavers like today's GOTD -- it's certainly cuter than most underwater scenes -- but if realism is your thing, using "video screensaver" [without quotes] Google had ~147,000,000 hits, so you shouldn't have trouble finding an app you like that'll play your video as a screensaver. If I remember correctly there's even a way to get Windows to do it.

That said, I've no idea how the quality of free HD video you'll find on-line compares to the footage sold for this sort of thing but AFAIK aimed at larger screen HDTVs.

"Vigorous seahorses"? Have these folks ever watched seahorses?

There are better alternatives (both free and paid) to today's giveaway. I've had this screensaver installed previously and I found myself never using it. It's not bad, but it's not really good either. However, if you really want an aquarium styled screensaver I say go for it.

If you'd like some free alternatives, Nvidia is giving away a few nice 3D screensavers. They're Nvidia branded, but I don't see a problem with that. Some of the screensavers they're giving away are "Western Railway", "Sunny Village", "Lost Watch 2" and more.

Now here's a paid alternative to the aquarium offered today, and is in my opinion "the best". It's not resource heavy despite being very pretty. It also doesn't require a good graphics card (a netbook could run this), it's called "Dream Aquarium".

Thanks GAotD and Astro Gemini, but I'll pass on the offer today.
