After a few days mucking about I bring you my fish tank.
Well this was fun, had no idea if it was even going to work.
Set contains the following -
The Fish Tank and magical Fish Spawner.
A Rock, Plant and Sunken ship as deco.
A lid with a light and a background decal.
Tank - Surfaces Dining Tables Misc
Fish Spawner - Activity and Skills Recreation
Rock - decorations misc
Sunken ship - sculptures
Plant - Fountain decorations
Decal - Decorations Paintings and Posters
Lid - Lighting Floor Lamps
Easiest way is to type "deep" into the search bar.

Note
In some light there is a weird texture issue on the tank
when you place it the game, dunno why got sick of looking.
but when you put the lid on it, it disappears.
(The texture glitch not the tank, I hope anyway)
There some pics below with further instructions.
Make sure you are in live mode then build mode as we need to swap between the two.
Place the tank where you want it.
Place the fish spawner near the tank.
Then in live mode click where you placed the fish spawner, it's invisible
so you need to know where you put it, I use a single square rug.
Select purchase fish. Go back into build mode to move the fish.
Important to get the full effect
When you move the fish, hold down alt on the keyboard to free
it from the constraints of the grid.
You will need to use the bb.moveobjects cheat to place
the fish higher in the tank so they don't all jumble up
on one level.
There is a slot in the center of tank where the bubbles are. Put the ship there
before you put other deco in so the slot does not get in your way.
To place the rocks and the plants, you also need to hold alt or you will have trouble getting more
than one in the tank.
Class idea and gets away from ea ugly fish tanks, thanks!:-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Rors. The next plan is to make a better one that is easier to use, I never really meant for this to work but it did and looked to good no to post
ReplyDeleteHey, this is a great idea so I downloaded and installed. Can't find the darn tank no matter how hard I try. Do I need an EP or GP for this to work? Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteHi Mercuria you need Open for business Mr S should of mentioned that sorry.
ReplyDeleteWhat is "Open for business"? Is that something else to download?
DeleteI should have clarified - all the other components show up and are usable. It's just the tank that I can't find.
(my apologies for having a conversation on the comment section)
Sorry I meant to say you need the Get to work expansion pack for the tanks to work in game.
DeleteThank you, now I understand. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Mercuria - I do plan on making another one that will require no Expansion Pack in the near future.
DeleteThat would be awesome! Thank you. Love your creations :D

ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful creation! Thank you so much for sharing <3
ReplyDeletethere is only the decal in the downloads folder on both links, what happened to the other parts?
ReplyDeleteI personally like to build my own stands so I can design the stand however I like. If you do decide to build your own stand, please be sure you build it strong enough and level. Remember that water weighs 8 pounds per gallon, plus the weight of your decor, substrate, and equipment. It's safe to say that an aquarium weighs 10 pounds per gallon in all. So a 50 gallon aquarium will weigh roughly 500 pounds. Larger aquariums over a few hundred gallons may require you to reinforce your floor. Please consult a contractor before installing large aquariums to ensure your floor will hold the weight. If you don't want to build your own stand, ask your local fish store to recommend a stand that is right for your aquarium. https://aquariaguide.com/do-betta-fish-sleep/
