I have a few questions. 1, does the aquarium mod work with all aquarium objects, or just that particular one? and the same question again for the fish bowl? 2, would it be possible to allow the fish bowl to also hold more than one fish? 3, how does the fish breeding work?

It works with all aquariums... not sure about non-sims3.com aquariums however unless they use the same XML. The fish bowls were designed to only have one fish in them... never was there anything in the XML to tune to allow more or it would have been considered. Breeding takes time in the aquariums and when they breed there is a chance for twins and triplets... this can not be done in the fish bowl for obvious reasons... but have any two of the same type of fish in a tank and they will breed autonomously with about a 30% chance per autonomous woohoo to produce offspring. The offspring will always be Normal quality however... this will still allow your tank to fill to it's max capacity should you allow them to continuously breed... also breeding has no baring on offspring to parent relations... any two fish will breed. They will attempt to woohoo every 2880 Sim minutes (every 48hrs).

i don't have high end loft installed at the moment, so can i just use the fishbowl feeding mod for the regular fishbowls?

Yes they can be used together or separately... two completely different lines of code.

Cool sorry if that was a stupid question. Thanks for the mod.

Thank you!

Thank you for the update. To be honest, I'm still using RB's original 20 fish mod and it's still working just fine, but it's nice you refreshed the code. Question though, as the fish bowl portion of your mod is separate, would that mean it should be compatible with any other fish tank mod out there, like RB's original (I know Shimrod still offers one with a 60 fish capacity, but that kind of overcrowding is, IMO, harmful to the fishes mental health)?

I don't mind pulling the old one out, but I have a heavily stocked tank right now and I'd like to "rescue" those fish before any changes. I guess I could temporarily put them in like 15 fish bowls until I added a "new" big tank, then move them back, but perhaps I could just finish out this current generation game before swapping the mod and buying a new tank.

But still, thanks for taking the time to update a classic mod.

They're two separate XMLs so completely compatible. Also you can go to the aquarium and 'Take All' in the Manage option which will add the fish to your inventory... and swap whenever you'd like. Fish won't die in your inventory... so there is no 'danger' to the moving process.

Thanks, just what i need...

thanks you

I was wondering if I could give a request for a specific type fish tank?
Here are some examples:

If you can make them where I can use them against the wall or look like they're built-in, that'd be awesome! If you have to build the wall for it, please make it re-colorable where we can change the texture of it to match our walls. Would like frames that are re-colorable. Would like the sand/rocks re-colorable as well. Please and thank you!

If you cannot do it, please forward this to any of your meshing friends who can!

thanks.For mod

Do you guys know any way to make all species be visible in all aquariums? I know what's the problem, not all of the fishes have animations for all aquariums. That is why I use fog emitter to get bowl animation of the fish inside bigger tank. If there was a way to force the game to show bowl fish in bigger tank, when you put the fish there... I like salamandra, but I have to keep it in the bowl to see it correct. That is inhumane... Bowl is for flowers, not fish!

So stupid question...is this for sims 3 or 4? I found it by googling for sims 4. and where does it show up in the game? I looked in the section of build where the fish bowl is and it wasn't there?

Thanks in advance! :D

Thanks for the mod

Thank you so much for updating Rainbow_Brite's mod - I found it today and was disappointed that it's not compatible with later versions, now I have some hope, it sounds like a great mod!

I've had issues with fish disappearing, I suspect they might have eaten one another :/ also the 6-fish limit always bugged me based on the size of the aquarium, you ought to be able to have more in there. So, I wanted to try out Rainbow_Brite's FishTankCompacity_15+NoHunger mod ... but it didn't work for me I guess version is too old.

Since you seem to have updated some of the mods, I thought it would be worth asking here... is it possible to increase the tank capacity and stop them from eating one another, but still have my sim feed them and clean them normally? As far as I can see, all your mods stop the sims from feeding the fish, please correct me if I'm wrong thank you!

They stop the 'need to feed the fish' not the ability to do so. It also keeps them from eating one another by default. It basically turned the aquarium into an interactive piece of scenery as it honestly should have been in the first place. I gave the ability to breed them in the pack just in case folks wanted that feature.

Thanks for replying I understand your point, although some people might feel that feeding and cleaning the fish is pointless, I personally would feel that it was cheating to turn it off :/ for the same reason I don't buy my pets the bottomless pet bowl or steel bladder trait. I want to do these things as part of my game! I know you said I could still feed them if I wanted to, but knowing they won't ever die if I forget bothers me somewhat, it makes it feel pointless. I was wanting to put the mod in so that I could breed fish in the fish tank, my cat has caught some nice fish for me and I thought I could breed them to get a good supply of fertiliser for my garden. But if they will breed indefinitely without me having to remember to feed them at all, I'd feel that was cheating. At the same time though I don't want three aquariums, my sim lives in a tiny studio XD but if I didn't /have/ to feed the fish, I'm sure I'd forget more and more often if there was no reason for me to bother doing it... Thanks anyway, though.
.

So, quick question: If you have the woohoo feature activated, would they only breed with fishies of the same species, or would they just breed with any fishies? Also, do they breed like every 5 seconds, or it spaced out so, for example, they only breed once a day? Or is it completely random when they breed? I assume it's random, but I'm not quite sure...

thank you

Thanks!

Does this mod work like the Fish Don't Die mod where the fish are basically immortal and live for 9999 days?
