FishBlast - Back in Time - May 2021
Good to see you again! We are back with some amazing works by the community. It has been a relaxed month for all of us, but we saw some amazing work that we wanted to share with you. Very soon we will also get an amazing optimization update to make your games run smoother!
The theme of this month is Back in Time, focussing on the early days in the game. So starter animals and no mods! Are you excited?
For this month’s community build that fit the theme we asked our Discord members to create a vanilla build. No mods and therefore true to the game’s beginning.
Creator Endy3032 made this nice aquarium for you to enjoy!

A small but cozy public aquarium. But as you can see, even without the usage of mods, you can make good looking tanks and facilities!

As you can see even in the early days we could create amazing builds. With the addition of the DLC and our workshop our works are only going to get nicer. What is your favourite decoration item in the vanilla game? Let us know in the comments.
For this spotlight we want to give you a look at one of the oldest mods around in the workshop. One created by the early birds when the workshop just opened for this game. Crazy thought right?

Introducing a brand-new species for your aquarium: Banana Moray Eel (Gymnothorax miliaris).
This yellow moray is amazingly created and was one of the very first creatures we could download from the workshop.
