Hey! It has been a while since I have posted a Fishblast for you all. From now on Fishblasts will be coming out every 2 months rather than every month.

Whenever you are playing a map, it is often a big challenge to keep staff active but not overworked. User Jasper found a great way of planning their aquarium and placing the filtrations and such on strategic points as shown at the end of this video! Jasper created a 30 minute video to show their big build. And the thing I want to praise here is the great layout. It must take a lot of time to plan such a build.

Try and build this!


Often people are looking for challenges. Sometimes having no idea what to create. This short segment will give you some guides to unfold your very own creativity. Are you ready to give it a try?

Try and build this: Presentation Arena

How to build this:
  • Place a podium near a tank.
  • Place benches around this podium (around 2 tiles away from it)
  • Place stairs and platforms behind these benches to create multiple layers
  • These layers will give the impression of multiple seating heights

Have fun building!

Mod Spotlight


The many waters on our planet are either saltwater or freshwater. However, there is an in between. It is called brackish water. One of the most important ecosystems in our world is the mangroves. Unique flora and fauna living in harmony while the flora is keeping the ocean away from claiming more land.

Amazing Mangroves by Anubite and the H.A.A.I. Team




This is a fan-made expansion that adds animals and plants from this unique biotope. Both for freshwater and saltwater. So definitely worth a look as it adds animals such as: Horseshoe crabs, Fiddler crabs, Scats, Whistling ducks, Upside-down jellyfish and for plants a huge variety of trees and grasses!

How does it work?


In this segment we are looking into the life behind the scenes of machinery or tasks that happen in public aquariums. We might ponder the question: How do UV filters work? Or investigate the breeding progress of a certain species.

For this edition of “How does it work” we will be looking into how PH meters work.

All the water in the world has an acidity, also known as pH. Aquaria in the world need to measure the acidity to make sure the fish they are planning on adding, will survive. The reason for this is that everywhere in the world, the water has a different acidity. Some water can have more acid in it than other places in the world. Some places even have alkaline waters. The water's pH even changes from time to time in smaller bodies of water. It is important to measure this once in a while, even in your home aquarium!



The pH meter shown above is an electrical version of a test that can also be done with fluids on a special piece of paper. In the pH meter is a piece of glass that works with specialized electrodes. Very complicated! The electrodes measure the acidity of the water while another electrode is a reference to a fixed sample that is set as a base. The voltage in these machines is measured and is linked to a pH level.

But if you do not have a machine available testing strips work just fine.

Have you ever measured pH in any type of water?
