Update: The Stardew aquarium mod used to say it was made by one person, but it was actually made by the whole team.For a full list of mod makers and contributors, please see the credits section at the bottom of the mod page on Nexus mods.Story: I love Stardew One of the things I love about Valley is the never-ending collection of objects to acquire and lists to complete. This is something that fits the lifesim genre incredibly well, and one modder has added even more tasks with an Animal Crossing-inspired aquarium mod.

The Stardew Aquarium mod adds an aquarium to the Stardew world, where you can donate fish to fill a vacant exhibit. Each time you donate a fish at the front desk, it will appear in one of the aquarium's many themed rooms, and in return, you will receive a prize for each donation you make a certain number of times. The mod even provides animations for each fish, so as you explore the aquarium, you can see the fish swimming around happily in their new home.

The new aquarium is located in a brand new beach area that the mod has added to the game and can be reached by using the Pelican Town train station. The beach area includes a large beach, a snack store, a wooden pier, an ice cream stand, a submarine store where you can buy fishing supplies, and an aquarium.

According to the FAQ, this mod has been created to be compatible with as many other mods as possible. For example, if you install a mod that adds more fish species, the mod will recognize those fish as valid donations.

Go to Nexus Mods to download the mod and read the installation instructions for more information. I am obsessed with installing mods for Stardew Valley, especially mods that add new areas to the base game. My favorites are the Stray Cat Cafe mod, which adds a cozy cafe run by twins, and the Garden Village Shops mod, which adds a new shopping area to the Pelican Town bus route.
