Sims 4 exotic pond issue

Hi

I have placed the exotic water garden pond in a couple of different worlds but i keep getting the same problem. The sharks, koi and piranha not visible in exotic pond, i can only see the sprites. My sims can feed them and admire them but the pond just looks empty unless I'm using the sprites. 

Any help would be appreciated as i don't know if I'm doing anything wrong.

Thank you. 🙂

    @Celticrose67 If you go to your graphics options, is laptop mode turned on ? If so, could you test if it's the same if you turn it off (turn it back on if you need to to play properly, it's just for checking if that'st the issue)

    Hi

    Thank you for taking the time to reply.

    Yes i play on a windows 11 laptop, i have no mods but i have some cc - clothes, couple plants and some furniture items. I did wonder if the cc was causing the issue but then if that was the case how come the sprites are able to be seen?

    Thank you 🙂

    Hi Crin

    I have played for a while with laptop mode unticked and so far no issues 🙂 so i'll keep my fingers crossed it stays that way.

    Have a lovely weekend.
