TikZfins – Aquarium fish, invertebrates and aquascapes drawn with TikZ

tikzfins draws aquarium fish in side profile with TikZ, as flat vector illustrations with counter-shading, translucent fins, fin rays and the markings of the real species. There are 22 fish: clownfish, blue tang, yellow tang, moorish idol, royal gramma, pufferfish, seahorse, lionfish, damselfish, blacktip reef shark, goldfish, betta, guppy, neon tetra, swordtail, angelfish, discus, tiger barb, corydoras, bristlenose pleco, dwarf gourami and zebra danio. Their tank mates are snails, starfish, a cleaner shrimp, a hermit crab and a moon jellyfish.

Around them you can build a whole tank: an aquarium or fish bowl environment with sand, gravel, aquasoil, pebbles or crushed coral, and rocks, driftwood, plants, corals and ornaments to place in it.

For fun, any fish can be eaten down to the bone, open its jaws to feed, grow legs, get caught on a hook, blow bubbles, talk, wear a hat or a snorkel, and swim in a school.

The package needs only TikZ and works with pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX.
