Hello folks, and welcome to the Megaquarium Fish and Plant Geography guide! As a seasoned veteran of games like Zoo Tycoon, Marine Park Empire, and the SeaWorld Adventure games, I often like to group animals together based on their real life geographic locations. This allows me to theme places appropriately and to group animals together that would coexist in the wild. What this guide is designed to do is bring all geographic information about each animal (and plant, if possible) from Megaquarium (as well as its new expansion pack) and group it all in one place. This will include the region the animal is from (Indian Ocean, North Sea, etc.), and it's type of habitat (coral reefs, open ocean, etc.). My goal is to help people organize their aquariums by theme or by region if so desired without having to scour the web and look up every animal or plant while building their aquariums.

All of this information is easily found on the web, and this is not a in-depth guide by any means. It is just meant to be a one stop shop for those of us who like to categorize stuff by geography, either for authenticity or for theming purposes.

Also as a note, all of this information will be from Wikipedia unless otherwise noted. Again, I just wanted to lump all of this info in one spot for ease of access. If anyone notes any mistakes in geography for any fish, please let me know in the comments and I'll do my best to correct it!
