We need a Marine Aquarium Exibit and Park

catloverplayer

I would like a Marine Aquarium Exibit and Park in a Vacation Destination World. The park could also include a zoo. With the marine aquarium I'd like to see all kind of marine life and fishes with glass surrounding sims. We could even change the lot type to restuarent to make it a restuarent or bar. I'd love if this place had shows like alligator wrestling and orcas jumping out of pools and doing tricks for food. It would be nice if you had bleachers your sims and npc sims could set on to watch the show.

The location should be a tropical one with hotels for spending your vacation and prehaps vacation homes if you want to live there. It should have a swimmable ocean and souvineer shop along with surfing and scuba diving.

I think it would be lovely to have an Aquarium. I would hope that they don't put any cetaceans (whale or porpoise) in tanks which wouldn't make it as nice they don't fare that well in captivity to be honest. But beautiful huge tanks of colorful fish would be lovely. I worked for a lovely State Aquarium a few years back and we had an assortment of rescued and rehabbing animals which was its secondary function besides the aquarium.

Since I worked in an Aquarium I feel a little qualified to suggest some nice sections

1. Water Garden - which using the current track by the Sims to make ecological issues in some of the packs would be a nice addition. The kind of water garden I am speaking of takes dirty water and through a series of pools with various natural filtering plants turns it into drinkable water.
2. Giant "salt water tanks" with colorful fish
3. Shark Tank with various types of sharks
4. Otter Habitat where you can see the otters both on land and under the water
5. Touch pools where little ones can touch small sea safe creatures like starfish
6. Aligator pool

That would be so adorable!

I love those ideas, if they had an interactive machine that can explain to sims how their footprint is already in the eco system, and tell them steps to take to make it better too. I love the other ideas

Love this~

In TS3 I made my own little aquarium. it was just a room with a bunch of tanks and a wall in the middle with that totally awesome window tank.

It would be so neat to have these options. The Build/Buy objects would be really neat too!
