📋 About This Mod
VERSION 2. 2. 0
(04/02/2026)
"Ah, fishing, my son. After a hard week of farming, or a long night of being nagged by your wife, there is nothing better than going out for a bit of a fish." - A Guide to Fishing Tamriel by "The Old Slaughterfish" (The Elder Scrolls Online)

Now that fishing is a thing, what do we do with all these fish? That is when the Dragonborn's Aquarium shows its full potential. A breton is opening an aquarium near the Cyrodilic border and could use your help. It is up to you to catch all the different species of fish available in Skyrim for this aquarium to get to its full potential and open to the public. Are you up for the task?
This mod requires the "Fishing" creation from the Creation Club, as well as the updated version of Skyrim as it uses the Ayleid set that was added in the latest update.
Do you feel like the Fishing creation fish are not enough for you? No worries! You can add fish from the Wheels of Lull by Trainwiz and DarthVitrial, from the Soul Cairn with Soul Cairn Fishery or the Coelacanth by BirbWalker21! Stay tuned, more add-ons are on the way!
What's new in version 2. 2. 0? The Soul Cairn Fishery add-on is out! Fish in the Soul Cairn and bring the fish back to the aquarium to offer them a new life!
This new version requires the latest Skyrim Anniversary Edition version, or Backported Extended ESL Support (BEES) to work.

⚠️ Cons
- Description is vague on specifics like location and quest details

- Requires Skyrim's fishing content, so it's useless if you don't fish
