The Really Useful Aquarium is a cool product from New World Notes media partner Really Useful Scripts Corner -- lead developer Grace7 Ling gracefully demonstrates its many features in the video above. Available in her Really Useful Scripts Corner on the Marketplace and at her SL store (click here to teleport), Grace’s fish tank is fairly unique among other virtual world aquariums:
“Many of the older aquariums are using flat textures of fish that cycle around in a fixed way,” Grace notes. “The Really Useful Aquarium has mesh fish which swim randomly around the tank. The swim speed and turning speed of each fish can actually be customized if you know how. Secondly, if you are not using the display shelf, the tank is actually quite versatile and can be resized to rather surprising dimensions, and the fish will adjust automatically to the new dimensions of the tank.” (Watch below.)
On top of that, aquarium owners or their guests can feed the fish:
“If you put in fish food, they will all swim to the top of the tank. And of course, since the aquarium is part of a display shelf, it can be used to display your books, vases or art, making it really useful!”
You can even select a feature for your aquarium that’s annoying in real life, but fun for SL: “There’s an option where if you don't clean the tank for a few days, algae will start to grow on the glass.”
Also available in two other varieties:
LOVE THIS! Thanks...
