The Medium Mega-Tank Workbench by Caddienoah

This workbench is dedicated to all ZT players who love the sea and its creatures. This workbench contains one large salt water tank surrounded by pathways, connecting several islands together. The workbench starts at Jan 1 of Year 1.

There are no extra files needed before using the workbench. There are many possible files from both Zoo Tek Phoenix and Designers Guild that can be used to add other corals, plant life and other animals.

There are some things that should be known about a tank this big. The items being added to the tank or deleted from the tank may, for some, take longer than usual, due to the size of the tank. The game has to work harder to follow commands. Due to the setup of the game, the tank has only one entrance/exit and only needs one tank filter. It can hold many small animals, or a smaller amount of large animals. When I was designing and testing the workbench, I had 12 whale sharks, and in the mixed tank four animals, of four different species. With mixed tanks the water gets dirty quicker, so I had about 10 -12 maintenance people, so one is never far away when the tank filter breaks down, and to cover trash needs throughout the zoo. I also had at least 8 to 10 Marine Biologists assigned to the tank. It never failed that there would be 4 or 5 animals needing the help of one of them. I kept each species in a mixed tank all of the same sex...no babies...less animals to watch for in tank...and less problems between them.

I hope you enjoy building your zoo on this workbench.
