[@howard555]

tropical fish are my favorite mob in minecraft! when the game attempts to spawn a group of them, there is a 5% chance that it spawns one single fully randomized tropical fish. the primary color, secondary color, and body shape, are all random rolled. i love hunting custom fish that are entirely one color. i call them “monochromes”. i once spent ~24hrs in a coral reef finding every “monochrome” color of fish. i loved the look of my new rainbow fishes so much, that i custom designed a bucket of tropical fish farm and built it in my world, to get even more. if you ever want to hunt them, you can tell a monochrome by hovering over it in a bucket. the text will have the body type, then below it, in faint text, it will read one color. as there are 15 colors that can be randomly selected from, the chance of finding one is 1/15 for every rare tropfish spawn. if you’re down for the grind, my custom farm uses pistons, bubble columns, and is in a lush cave biome that is cleared of water. have fun, and good luck!

[@WaxFraud]

its so cool how many versions there are! thanks for watching!

For years I have watched the occasional MineCraft video on TH-cam but I never felt the need to leave a comment until now. The level of originality and perfectly placed details in your builds is insane. I just discovered your channel and I am positively blown back by every single design you display. Even just flying over your past builds makes my jaw drop repeatedly. I would have gone a little easier on the coral blocks in this build but considering your passion for aquarium building it makes sense you decorated it like that. You're gifted. Subbed and looking forward to seeing more of these beautiful showcases!

Happy New Year!! thank you so much for watching!

[@kenneth_ez]

I've watched every episode on your channels (except 80% of the long plays, sorry), and I think this is one of my favorite builds if not the favorite. It's so colorful and the whole idea of it being inside an Ancient City and not just some random place in the overworld. I am happy you went with the tropical fish, they are so colorful and fit the colorful vibe of the aquarium. I think with the amount of coral blocks you put in, the dolphins would have been too crammed there. I mean, the whole restoration of the Ancient City is just amazing but the crown piece is definitely this Aquarium. Maybe in the future you could do the end portal room and eventually the main End Island? I would love to see you tackle the End Island.

[@WaxFraud]

thank you so much for watching!

[@danielgerssen3451]

Don't dolphins also just despawn once you get them out of their natural biomes, or did that get fixed in recent versions? (haven't played since 1.18)

first of all WOW i have been away for a whiile and i just got back into your videos and the scale of your project really shocked me i was more and more amazed by what you made
and da second thing is since i remember you vaguely saying you used modded minecraft there is a mod called inventory profiles next and it is a god send when it comes to qol it removes the need to middle click after you run out of a certain blocks and it replaces tools when they run very low i cant play without it and hey its mainly just a time saver :> give it a shot if ya like fraud man
