Concepts

The reason why I chose the fish bowl design rather than building a fishing ship or fishing net on top of a little pond is: It just doesn't really fit into GTNH's art style where sci-fi and fantasy merges together. Besides those designs are usually way oversized and needs a lot materials that you can't get bunch in IV tiers.

So I came up an idea that, instead of getting fishes from the "imaginary ocean", why not getting them from nicely maintained pond where you can aquaculture in it? Where you can both have a nice looking multi in your base while it won't using too much space.

Structure & Info

I tried to make the structure future proof (in case dev want to adding this machine into a processing line), the structure itself is modular and you can upgrade whenever you needs it.

The main structure is just a simple fish bowl but with reinforced glasses. The parallel mechanic for the old multi is pretty horrible in my opinion, so the newly designed structure ties the parallel and voltages to the tier of the glass. The fish output and power input is on this part.

There are 4 seperate modules on the side:

The one with grey stainless steel texture is for waste water treatments, where you can get trashes and pollution from it, which used have to switch the circuit. And it will bring parallel to the machine.

The one with blue stainless steel texture is the aerator which pumping oxygen into the water. It will only bring parallel to the machine as well.

The one with tungsten steel texture is fresh water supplier. You can add different level of purified water into the machine in order to get rarer fishes or simply MORE PARALLELS.

The one with bronze texture is the feeding module, where you can adding foods for fishes so that you can get more parallels or higher chance to some rarer fishes.

The sand, gravel, and algae are completely optional just like Mapiary and you can add them as you wish.

A tweaked design, which I replaced the floor to the concrete, which supposed to be a new block called water proof concrete

#

Or just leave the main part of the multi as what it is. Replacing the surrounding base from tungsten steel to a grey looking concrete, sadly there aren't any in the pack and the only one I found is way too expensive

#

Nevertheless the old casing looks so bad, a texture redesign is must

Currently I'm considering redesigning the part where it the side module connect with the main body, the old design on the left looks heavy so I newly designed 2 more variations. I tried to make the machine more fitting into your base planning so I really need some feedbacks.

#

Currently I'm planning add a fish seeding module but it always went way oversize than I imagined, so for now, the input bus is your fish seeding module.

So what does fish seeding does? There are two mode of machine you can choose. The one is aquarium/Zhuhai, which it behaves just like the old Zhuhai. The second mode will be fish seeder, which you can solely harvesting single or couple product for your fish oil or weedEX business.

It will consume fishes in the input bus if it's in fish seeding mode, but the whole process is circulated
