    They would more likely stop just to study us.

    Yeah, but if they were to invade us, that would be the reason. Who knows, maybe their space vehicles run on water.

    water can be found on asteroids, meaning there are easier ways to get water from space than invading a planet

    In all seriousness, I wonder what aliens would even look like? Sentient plants were mentioned earlier, but why not insects or aquatic life, like fish?

    Because insects and fish would be unable to reach intelligence to rival even early humans. The same goes for plants, who for now aren't even sentient, let alone be intelligent.

    This is on our planet, perhaps somewhere else evolution has evolved these species to great intelligence.

    Well, humans reached intelligence because of standing up straight, having thumbs and simply needing to develop said intelligence to be able to survive. All those factors increased the size of early humans' brains, allowing them to eventually develop the intelligence we have today. Insects and fish both will never reach anything like this, on Earth or anywhere else.

    I might just be nitpicky, though. It's also why I think most of the alien races in Mass Effect would never achieve intelligence, or that at least their general appearance looks strange for evolutionary purposes.

    Perhaps not fish but aquatic life in general?
