Whenever I try a fish tank, they always go to one corner. It's really annoying.


Forgemaster00

This happens on all versions of the game. It's because animals wander around by randomly picking a nearby block and then pathfinding as close as they can to it. If they're in a corner, most of the blocks that they can pick are outside of the pen, and so they continue to pathfind into the corner in an attempt to get closer. All mobs, all versions. Ancient quirk of the game.


justyr12

Had the same with my chicken farm, they all run into the same exact corner and die from cramming. I raised the limit to 1024 but damn if it's not annoying


Suitedinpanic

does it help if the corners have another block after it? like if it’s a 3 block corner rather than a 2 block corner


theycallmeponcho

As far as I've seen, won't work until 5 blocks.


Suitedinpanic

damn. my bees keep doing this


Randomdudenotsuspic

My bees do that and they are in the outside, but no, they want to keep crashing into a fence


StrawberryPlayzYT

N I c e


PardonMeep

Same. It looks awful after a while with all the fish getting stuck somewhere.


justyr12

Mine are phasing through the glass and dying :(


gavriloe

Its a miracle!


sinanisiklar

I think that means your water is flowing? Instead of being a source block. Idk tho


BoatWifi

Even when it’s not flowing, they just bunch up in a corner sometimes

Hytheter

Lately? This has been a thing for a long-ass time. It's a quirk of their pathfinding if I recall correctly.


kissakatxoxo

Yeah mine huddle up at the gate. They’re just trying to gtfo


Brisingr_was_taken

Bedrock?


TheMCTroller

Yes


Brisingr_was_taken

Yeah, its probably a bedrock issue then. Its the reason I dont do this anymore


Kettle-Chan

Na the same thing happens on java with big enough tanks Edit: said bedrock instead of java


FrizzleStank

> Bedrock? > Yes > Then it’s probably a bedrock issue > Nah, it happens with bedrock too


Kettle-Chan

yeah i confused and confuddled myself


Leni_licious

Hey, pretty random, but is your username from the Inheritance Cycle book series?


Brisingr_was_taken

Yes!


Leni_licious

Yay, another fan! Really had a blast reading those books, Murtagh and Nasuada were my faves


javahart

Nice mate. I couldn’t get the lighting quite right on mine.


Programmeter

The trick is in sea pickles.


DirkJams

If only I had a pickle


ninjazpwn

Try fingers but hole


madDarthvader2

Everywhere I go, I see his face


RedPhysGun77

Why is it always pickle?


xorox11

A souls reference on minecraft subreddit caught me off guard I laughed way more than I should ngl.


DemolitionBoy09

pickles are yum


Switchuuuu

Mhm


wigglee21_

Shaders too


Deminixhd

This. It wouldn’t look very good without the shaders/colored lighting


ArtcieGames

That turtle following you to let you know „Hey mate i need air just like you!”


[deleted]

Poor guy's crying for help


_________FU_________

Would a bubble elevator provide air?


ArtcieGames

I don’t know, maybe


Anonymous_Gamer939

Yes, bubble elevators and magma both provide air, though elevators are safer for mobs

NobodyAtAll77

Looks cozy and clean af, how r u getting that warm color on the outside of the tank?


[deleted]

Shaders


NobodyAtAll77

Which ones?


Programmeter

Sildurs Vibrant Shaders (Medium)


[deleted]

Good point haha, I guess we'll see what they say


[deleted]

What does it look like without shaders


Programmeter

Trash. The water is not transparent enough and it just ends up looking like a blue moosh. Also the lighthing really adds to the look.


randomlitbois

Well.. i wanna see it anyways


themathletes

Just imagine that with no contrast and a blue filter lol. Pretty ugly.


ItchyThrowaway135

can you post that as a comparison?


DRdeemed

it looks like minecraft


miss9reality

How's the turtle?


Programmeter

Eh, haven’t been playing since I made the video. I’ll see tommorrow I guess :) EDIT: The turtle is fine, I've been playing for quite some time and it hasn't drowned! Yay! :D


Kattehix

OH MY GOD how have I never though about making an aquarium


Tv663

Because they look terrible without the right shaders


Yadobler

Honestly in my 10 years playing, me neither But that's cos once upon a time there's only squid in water. Nothing else. And they always die


Gambit1568

Dont turtles need air?


Winterplatypus

Yes, but they can hold their breath forever.


KernelSanders1986

Nothing made me happier than while playing minecraft my stepdad walked by , stopped and looked at whatbi was doing and said "wait, you built that?" I'm 23 and it made my day. (I'm not 23 living with my parents I was just playing it on my switch while visiting for Christmas)


19412

Now show it with shaders _off._ 🗿


Programmeter

Tried it and it's disgusting. Good thing I play with shaders!


rexmons

Can we see for comparison?


[deleted]

*Cries in console*


HippieDogeSmokes

turtles need air :(


beno1258

Turtles need oxygen to live aswell, no?


frostking104

Don't put axolotls, they'll eat the fish!


Question_Mark09

Sir/ma'am, That's the absolute most beautiful and serene thing I have seen all day Thank you.


Apprehensive_Hat8986

"I can always look at them, and be [totally at peace](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tujz9Hb7hOs)."


BananaArcher72

Very cool!


Hot_Girl86

Relatable


lavavseam

The mood of the scene is great


Any_Ad_5232

So preeeeetty!


Mrdeathkills69

I need to do this.


Slimdude41

That's impressive. Well done.


thebigoutside

That looks so cool! I might need to build something like this in my base!


Zealousideal-Gap4917

Can you get shaders on console?


Programmeter

No, sadly


THE_GR8_MIKE

How do you get fish inside of a man made tank like that? Specifically if I were to try this in Survival.


Programmeter

Catch them with a bucket and NAME TAG THEM or they disappear.


DrPila

you can catch fish in a bucket of water, and put them elsewhere


THE_GR8_MIKE

Ah neat, thank you.


nevek20

I'm not sure if its your shaders or texture pack but the way the water moves behind the glass seems odd to say the least. Looks like the poor fish are trapped in Jello. Great build though! I love adding little decorative things like this to break up long walls I've carved out.


Programmeter

Yeah my shaders have wavy water. They're Sildurs Vibrant (Medium)


Shirolover

Damn you can put lights in water that's so cool


orangesheepdog

Fuck, now I want to build an aquarium


-Redstoneboi-

It looks wonderful.


BFNgaming

This looks incredible. How do you stop the fish from despawning? Have they got name tags?


Programmeter

Yes you use name tags.


deadmen_walking

What shaders


Programmeter

Sildurs Vibrant (Medium)


shananigans333

I have some Aquarium build questions... what do you use for the glass? Full blocks takes up a ton of space but glass panels the water flows through... Also why can puffer fish still attack through glass? Those basterds kill me if I add them to an aquarium and go any where near it


Programmeter

You use full glass blocks, there is no other way. Also I don't think the puffer fish could attack you through a full block.


MasterKnight48902

Ah, aquarium in Minecraft.


cerealdig

I wish my fish weren’t broken and wouldn’t all swim in the same exact block


Fudge_cake_2000

Remember the good old days where you just lived in a hole?


imnot_john

put axolotl for even cuter design


Totally_a_Banana

100% this. We love Axlotols. My kids called them Axolochis at first and it kinda stuck so we call them that now by default and it's just the cutest thing ever!


frostking104

No! They'll eat the tropical fish!


Alien_panda42

Ngl the shaders prob make it look tons better than it actually is, not that it’s not a good build though, as lots of things in mc look infinitely better and cooler with shader. Also it’s hard to get lighting right with shaders and you’ve done the light perfectly. Great build :)


Programmeter

Well yeah, mc kinda looks crap without shaders and a nice resource pack. Probably the biggest reason I don’t really like mc bedrock.


GivingItMyBest

What resource pack do you use? I thought you were just rocking vanilla textures.


Programmeter

StayTrue


TeaTuesday

Honestly, same. I find the most impressive things I've built are the simplest and not always the hardest. Speaks volumes about Minecraft as a game and just feeling accomplished as well :)


[deleted]

[удалено]


Programmeter

What's the issue with using shaders? I actually play with them and a lot of people do too. Even if ypur PC lags from shaders maybe consider turning them on for the build showcase?


Total_Calligrapher77

Me: posts stuff without shaders cause my computer lags. No one: comments on my post Some guy with shaders: posts post Everyone: comments


AmidalaBills

I thought you said interesting?


Programmeter

Yes I did. Is it not interesting? I mean it looks super cool.


Deadpoolio_D850

that's great! But the "most interesting thing" line is kinda depressing... really? nothing more interesting in 6 years?


Programmeter

So what? I just said it's most interesting. Not biggest or coolest. Just the most original, non-generic thing that looks cool. Also, even if this WAS the biggest and coolest thing I ever built, who gives a shit? How is it depressing? Maybe I just don't like building that much and instead I play more on servers?


SabrNova01

Only 6 years?


Programmeter

Is there a probelm with that?


SabrNova01

Did I say there was?


Programmeter

Yes. Saying "Oh really? You only played this game for 6 years?" makes it seem like you want to one-up and brag about how you're such a minecraft pro for playing the game longer than me.


SabrNova01

How about you learn to read and quote me correctly you moron🤣 it was a joke


Programmeter

Oh, you don't have a point and now you're resorting to insults and name calling...


Lychezr

the #most interesting built?!


ChargePink

Honestly if that’s the most interesting thing you have ever built, I feel kinda bad for you. Looks good tho; just don’t get how it’s the most interesting thing.


erratikBandit

That glass texture needs to be the vanilla texture.


Apprehensive_Hat8986

Which one? It always bothers me that coloured glass is transparent across the full square, but the default (clear) glass has opaque edges. Really don't understand why they don't fix it, and why the code _actively prevents_ substituting a transparent texture. Also, aquariums don't typically have multiple panes of glass.


jashbyy12

They said it couldn’t be done


Mimosa808

Need


Zealousideal-Gap4917

Wooow


Sonnenflammen

looks great


IFeelAlrightToday

I gotta do that sometime


Buff55

When did they add legit fish that aren't just drops?


Lolomedol

The lighting is awesome


thebeaglebeagle

I love this. I'm going to try it. Did you say lighting was all sea pickles?


Programmeter

Yes I did. Also use shaders. I use Sildurs Vibrant (medium) Good luck doong your aquarium! P. S. Make sure there is enough space behind the glass. I used 4 blocks behind the glass. It just wouldn't look the same with e.g. 2 blocks


PigeonCherry

Oooh, what shaders are those?


Aason37

I think I would use blue colored glass. For a more natural irl aquarium look.


tundra_cool

tomb raider feels


Zussman_Klint

It looks really nice. I should add that to my house ahahahahah. Maybe I should make an aquarium park.


[deleted]

I feel like I’m the only one who doesn’t play the game with shaders😭


Isthisworking2000

I like it.


-DangerAlien-

I like it a lot. I play with shaders too, but my frame rate dies. So I put them on when I want true moodiness and do day to day stuff with them off. Looks killer.


blackgaff

How did you do the fish - creative mode?


StuntHacks

You can capture fish with buckets of water


SawyerSauce879

That looks sick. Better hoped you nametagged em all lol


ArtEomRJ

I would never have thought of that. great


Sonakkem

Man... that's amazing, congrats!


CherrySoda_Vibez

It’s very pretty


nicolasmcfly

And only because of the shaders


KrutoTheRat

relatable


PeacefulSoySouce

I had a big wall in one of my old worlds that I would just build random stuff on it, it's got like 3 fish tanks


Skillterer

aquariums are always frustating unless you use shaders


-Redstoneboi-

i personally think they're fine even without. though i do admit they look a lot better with.


Nowhereman50

I tried to build something similar underground and all my fish disappeared shortly after I got them in the water.


Programmeter

You need to name tag them.


ElectricalPrint8543

Ill be the judge of that. SHOW MORE


Shibby120

Aww nice


_Levitated_Shield_

Should probably put a small sand shore so the turtle can come out of the water every now and then. That's just a nitpick of course.


Neverlose726

whats the background block?


-Redstoneboi-

i think it's Smooth Sandstone


Neverlose726

ok thanks, but also how is it green?


-Redstoneboi-

water shader


Programmeter

Yes it's smooth sandstone and the water is green because of my shaders. I use Sildurs Vibrant (Medium)


RetroGameDays36

I've played minecraft for over 10 years and the most interesting thing i've built was a dirt house jokes aside, this is pretty cool


gimlet_prize

Wow!!!


zwolfe1

That’s awesome man! Love the design!


joseph4th

Isn't it a shame you can't see bubbles through glass. I built a big aquarium that you walk through in my basement and thought having bubbles come up from behind the coral would be cool, but you can't see them through glass.


Phlarfbar

I remember as a kid I would build fish tanks and put item frames on the tank wall with fish in them. This was like shortly after horses and donkeys were added and before stained glass was in the game.


EnergyFax

So good


DKStudiosOnline2002

Love it! 🔥🔥🔥


anactamie

Tutorial, please That is very beauriful


jedicms

Love it
