Reefscapes: Nature's Aquarium

It serves the purpose that I purchased it for. But, wish the scenes were longer. If flips to different recordings pretty frequently disrupting the continuity and tranquility of the presentation.

I simply LOVE this video. It's got beautiful, soothing ambient music, that quietly repeats with endless loop. You just 'set it and forget it!'The pictures of the ocean and fishes are just beautiful as they float over the corals.I actually bought this as a more comforting alternative for my five cats and two dogs. Most of them fall asleep in front of the screen, on the floor, sofas, chairs, rugs, lol, it works!!!I will probably look into getting more dvd like this, maybe the waterfall one, etc. Very relaxing for everyone!

I use this DVD for background. The bubbly water sounds and the beautiful fish and coral make a relaxing atmosphere. I found the music track annoying.This is better than an aquarium and no cleaning 😁

The patients in the waiting room love this video. I love to look at it and there is no maintenance of a tank.

I missed the aquarium I had years ago. This one is great to put into the TV and watch for relaxation. The great thing about it is no fuss no mess. I absolutely love this DVD. The colors are excellent.

Reefscapes: Nature's Aquarium (Second Edition) is definitely the best of the five different aquarium DVD's that I bought. Reefscapes has a one hour main feature (Nature's Aquarium) and a 20 minute bonus feature (A Closer Look). The bonus feature often shows one or two fish at a time in their natural environment with the name of the fish displayed. The bonus feature also shows the names of the different corals. The DVD gives you the option of showing or hiding the names of the fish and corals in the bonus feature. The main feature does not show the names of the fish or corals. Both the main feature and the bonus feature give you the option of playing relaxing music or natural sounds from the reef (it sounds like aquarium bubbles). The relaxing music and the natural sounds play non-stop for the entire 60 minutes of the main feature and for the entire bonus feature. The last 35 seconds of the main feature displays the names of the production crew against a black background while the relaxing music or natural sounds continue to play. The bonus feature has a 30 second similar ending. Both the main feature and the bonus feature restarts automatically. Of the five aquarium DVD's, Reefscapes and one other DVD is tied for first place for the loudest "aquarium bubbles". I have noisy neighbors that make a lot of noise in the hallway outside of my room. The loud "aquarium bubbles" drown out their noise (unlike the three other DVD's). In the main feature, the scene changes about every 60 seconds, and every scene is different. Every underwater ocean scene in the main feature has lots of corals and fish. The scenes in the bonus feature changes about every 15 seconds, and every scene is different.

very nice!!!

I found the "Reefscapes Nature's Aquarium" DVD, to be boring boring, boring!.Quality, colors and audio were very good with the exception of occasional pixelation. That; however, usually went away after a few seconds. The problem with the main portion of the DVD is that the scenes appeared to have been selected on the basis of sheer number of small fish. While the colors were vivid [predominately orange] , the feeling that I had was not that of snorkeling on a coral reef; but rather that of looking at an over crowded fish tank in the pet section of a discount store. Even on our 50" HDTV the fish were small and the sheer quantity of the little orange fellows just overwhelmed. I will probably not watch the main video again.The 20 minute Bonus Feature, "Reefscapes: A Closer Look" was excellent! If the hour long portion of the DVD had been done like the bonus section I would probably have rated it five stars. Both parts have great colors; remarkable visibility; OK audio; and [hallelujah] no commentary.The Bonus part consists of close up views of common reef fish in their natural environment. The scenes reminded me of a number of snorkel trips in places like the Great Barrier Reef; Hawaii; Bonaire; Tahiti, the Caribbean, etc. I would have liked to have seen shots of some of the other common reef dwellers -- like moray eels, octopi; lobsters, barracuda, tarpon, squid, sea cucumbers, and maybe even a sea-horse [memories of Bonaire] -- to name a few; and for the camera to have followed the individual fish for a longer period of time.Overall I was very disappointed in the Reefscapes DVD. I had planned to give them as Christmas presents to each of our four kids but I am now back to square one.

My mom loves it She finds it very peaceful and beautiful She says it’s like having a beautiful aquarium without the work!

We love this video. It is ideal for relaxation on a hot summer afternoon. Some friends who were visiting thought we actually had an aquarium on display! The photography is crisp and clear and the colours are natural and bright. The ambient music is pleasant with enough variation to stop it from becoming boring.

It is very enjoyable to watch !

Hands down the absolute best "Aquarium" DVD out there. It is filmed entirely on a live reef in the ocean. It's beautiful and stunning.

Very disappointing picture quality! I have a screen saver that has computer generated fish that look more real than this!
