Customizing Your Display Name with Colors
(7-10-25 edit) This has been "patched out" to include ease of use name coloring functionality in a future update instead. It still functions in a lobby, however if you are hosting it will not work - it will display the entire hex code with no color.


Tiny Aquarium features rich-text formatting capabilities that allow players to personalize their display names with custom colors. By adding a hex color code prefix to your Steam username, you can create a unique visual identity that stands out both above your boat and in chat conversations.

How to Apply Color Formatting:Add the desired hex color code (including brackets) directly before your Steam username. For example:

<#ff0000>Rob will display "Rob" in vibrant red both as your in-game nameplate and chat text.


Implementation Steps:
  • Select your preferred color code from the list below
  • Copy the complete code including the brackets
  • Paste it before your current Steam username
  • Restart Tiny Aquarium if currently running to apply changes

Use https://htmlcolorcodes.com if you would like to choose a more specific color

Absolutely agreed Genolla! It was a bit absurd to go through all of this effort for a name color haha

Nice, that's awesome to hear! And by the way, I do both respect and appreciate the work you put into this guide to let players do this, I just never edit my username even for jokey stuff in certain online games, and I definitely wouldn't want a long code like this in my username :p

They definitely listened haha, as of the new update this no longer works - they'll be implementing it correctly for ease of use with everyone in the future

@Genolla I completely agree with that!

Having to edit the Steam username just for this one game is absolutely wild. Dev(s) need to add this in-game.
