Fish are small pets too!

I so far am enjoying small pets, I just set up the hamster cage in my little girls room and had to buy that cool coffee table fish tank, but this whole pack got me thinking about fishes.

We personally had a fish tank for years and enjoyed it a lot, but our fish had to be fed, the tank had to be cleaned and so on.

Why are sims 4 fish treated as objects instead of small pets?? This would’ve been the perfect chance to change that.

Please let us feed our fish, they must be starving by now it’s been 2 years.

Yes, I agree with you so much! I personally didn't like how they removed the feed option and how fish in the coffee table can't die. Also, it would be nice if the new round coffee table came with plain colour/style swatch with no fish inside. Because, you know, now it seems like a super expensive table that only very rich Sims can afford. A plain one would fit right into the poorer Sim families I've got in game.

Yes! I would’ve loved a plain glass coffee table and it wouldve matched with other furniture already in game.

I totally agree OP. Fish are small pets too, and my first pet was a goldfish named Tails! <3 I think we should be able to feed and interact with the fish.

Awe that’s so cute! I think many kids have a fish for their first pet.

YES!!

Having the things I enjoy in life only without the part of taking care of them removes part of the pleasure, I like caring for plants and my critters at home. It is nurturing or healing for me, a little pice of time that you give something back to the universe. Others might see it as a chore but for me it is actually something that I value.

Also I just play so many games that makes you work for your supper, if you want something useful or pretty you will have to work for it that having something that cannot be interacted with just feels like it isn't there. I don't place the non-interactive visually pretty plants in my sims homes. It feels like they are plastic if I cannot do anything with them, I just use them for public lots. Inside I prefer to place a small planter and plant roses or one of the flowers instead so I get to use the interactions of watering them. Wish I could do something for my fishes also.

For $10 you can feed your fish. Even get a few recolours on the fish tanks.

You seriously want that?
I rather not bother feeding fish if my sims can't take care of a hamster then they definitely can't take care of fish or any pet.

There's a LOT more this game needs than a gazillion SPs for each type of small animal!
I was commenting my sims can't take care of any pet whether its a small pet from the SP or cat or dogs they don't have the sense to feed them.
