Is that possible? I tried to simple grab and put fish in it but didn't work with me xO

Wow I never knew this is possible. Great work.

I just discovered a fridge which is not original and not listed in the buy mode catalog. The fridge looks great and I'd like to know how I can get my hands on this to place it in other homes.

nice work on the house.... but
you cheated alot on the build i played it yesterday for about three hours and tweaked it a bit, only because the fireplace didn't have a working chimney and would catch the place on fire every time you used it so i had to fix it, by extending the room and adding some walls & such to hide the red brick that didn't match your design .... I also added a sun room/study next to but above the garage .... personal preference ... kudos on stellar work though!

with any pond on your property you can stock fish as long as you have at least 10 of the same critter in your inventory first, which will then give you the stock pond option :p

It's a gift for completing culinary career Lv.10. I brought it with the 'family inventory' feature.. ^^

That's odd.. I've tested the fireplace and never had any problems (except for the missing smoke animation coming out from the chimney)
My sims handiness level is around 5 though..

Anyways, if you really need the chimney, just grab the fireplace and put it outside, flatten out 2x2 tiles behind the wall then put it back where it belongs. The chimney will pop out automagically..
or just leave it alone and pretend it's an electric fireplace.. ^^

Truth is, aside from not being able to create a style for the chimney, I don't particularly like the fireplace (in my country, I'd prefer an Air Conditioner ^^)
but the environment & mood boost is just too nice to miss..

unfortunately, that is not possible..
because it's not a real pond but a swimming pool converted into a pond.. T_T

I made that post before I played it.. then i figured out what it was!

Anyway, I'v been playing around with the pool in the back to have the same feature as the front "pond". It is very frustrating! I wonder why the tutorial isn't working..

Have you figured out a way to keep the water line even for the back pool?

Negative..
Tried every possible way, even making it the same size, layout, objects placement, etc, as the first pond, yet the waterline never stays even after reloading / switch back from edit town / etc..

Guess I was lucky when making the first pond..
