Fish Tanks

«1
The premium edition of the game came with a creator's guide. And in this guide is a concept artwork of a living room with a large half moon shaped fish tank in it. It makes no sense to leave the fish bowls in the game but not the fish tanks. Especially when fish tanks can hold several fishes at once. Where as a fish bowl can only hold one fish at a time. I hope that they plan to bring back the fish tanks of the reason that they take up less space than many fish bowls. If they do bring back fish tanks, I hope that they include the half moon shaped and wall tanks.

    I'm sure we'll get them. We'll definitely have them when Pets is released, if not before. I wouldn't think too much about the concept art you saw. I a lot of things were left out of the game when it was shipped but they probably have them on hold to be released later on, maybe for sale in the store when it opens...

    I was thinking that we may get the fish tanks back in a pet themed expansion pack, when I was creating this post. If we do get a pets expansion pack. But the fish tanks can come in a game update just as well. To me it doesn't matter if the tanks come in an expansion pack or a update. I just want a fish tank, mainly because they will take up less room in the house than a bunch of fish bowls would.
    As for the concept artwork goes, yeah several things that were shown in them did get left out. Like the one about the water front that we got as a bones thing in TS3's I.T.F expansion pack last year. And the fisherman's hat was also a item that got left out. These items were cool, and I wish that they hadn't left them out of the game. Especially the water front scene, I had always thought they would include that in the game and use it as a marketing tool to sell Sims 4. It was a cool scene, and should have included in the game. I will play that area of the game a lot, if they would include it the game. :)

    That would be nice if they did come in Dec's patch, but I don't see that happening. The best that we can hope for is in January's update or an expansion, if we get either one. :(

    A fish tank would be nice! As long as it didn't attract my sims to it every 5 minutes.

    @sunman502, your Sims don't hover over the computer every time you take your cursor off them?
    This I do for the fun of it.

    I can live without a fish tank. I'm sure there's a lot of concept art that didn't reach the 3D modelling stage such as the tank, but I'm guessing they just didn't have time to include it in the base game.

    It's not about them just standing there next to the fish tanks. In TS2, my sims would go watch the fish in the fish tank, if I leave them alone for a brief period of time. My sims did the same thing with their babies in TS3. :\

    I wonder if the devs will ever get tired of being caught with their pants down...another shortcut, another feature missing...getting hard to stand by such a seemingly botched product...yet against such glaring mishandling, I am still optimistic...tanks would be cool

    I would love the ability to put more than one fish in an aquarium. But what I would REALLY love, is that fish would not fall to foul freshness in a tank. That seems so ridiculous. How can a live fish go bad?

    Will be better if we could breed them to create new kind of rare fish.
