    Currently we are still looking into if it's possible to add aquariums.

    There are no plans to add food that uses big fish as an ingredient at the moment. Creating a new meal that offers incredible buffs would in turn have an affect on the balance of battle, so we have to look into this type of thing carefully.

    We're currently looking into turning fish into furnishings and adding other achievements for Big Fishing, so please hang in there while we look into these features.

    Thanks Grekumah.

    I'd say of all the choices, I'd like Aquariums for sure. It'd be pretty nice to have a dynamic, updated as frequently as the player adds fish "furnishing" to the game over other decorations.

    Why not take the XI approach and make 3hour versions of the same foods that use big fish as materials?

    Problem is that fish tend to make similar level food. Unless you really want to use a 3hr Braised Pipira made from Bloody Brewer... I'd just vendor/desynth it instead xD

    What about a big fish turning into a food/potion that is a purely cosmetic function? Such as, drinking said potion will turn you into a goblin for 30 seconds. In-combat would be hilarious.
