Aquatic is a free 5-page HTML CSS website template from Templatemo, built around an aqua/aquamarine color scheme with a Flash Grid Slider on the homepage.
What is Aquatic?
Aquatic is a static, multi-page HTML CSS template for building simple websites. It ships as a downloadable ZIP file from Templatemo; you download it, edit the HTML and CSS locally, and upload the files to any web server. The template was published by Templatemo and added on 29 May 2012. There is no build process, database, or server-side code involved — just plain HTML and CSS files.

Who is it for?
- Small business owners who want a free, ready-made 5-page site and can edit the HTML themselves or with a local web developer.
- Web design students who want to inspect a complete multi-page HTML/CSS layout from 2012, including a Flash slider, to learn how static templates were structured.
- Hobbyists and community groups that need a simple online presence and are okay with a dated, non-responsive design.
What can you do with Aquatic?
- Launch a simple business site: Replace the default page content with your own business information, then upload the files to any shared host.
- Create a personal landing page: Swap in your own text and images to make a personal home page in the aqua style.
- Study a legacy template: Use the template as a reference for how Flash sliders and fixed-width layouts were built before responsive design became the default.
