SeaTruck Fish Scoop

Do you regularly find yourself on a deadly rampage, mowing down innocent hoop fish in your Seatruck? Feel bad? Well, you bloody well should do! Or maybe you just really need some fuel for that shiny new bioreactor?

This mod adds a "Seatruck Fish Scoop" upgrade module that, when enabled, acts like an underwater vacuum, slurping up innocent fish and depositing them into any attached aquarium Seatruck aquariums. You can then collect fish from the aquariums as normal, purge the content into open water, or even automatically refill base bioreactors! The module can also be configured to automatically eject scooped fish if attached aquariums are full.

  • []Adds a new Sea Truck upgrade to the Upgrade Workbench: the "SeaTruck Fish Scoop".

    []Once installed in a Sea Truck, toggle as you would any other upgrade using the 1-4 keys, depending on the slot it's in.

    []Press once to toggle, hold down to purge all aquariums.

    []If you purge aquariums while close to base bioreactors, aquarium stock will be automatically transferred until they are at capacity.

    []Can be tweaked to scoop even when you’re not piloting the Seatruck, configured via the Options > Mods menu.

    • []You must have at least one attached Aquarium with sufficient capacity for your target fish!

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-approved: 274 endorsements and over 15k downloads show it's a popular quality-of-life add-on.
  • Non-lethal fish collection saves time and keeps fish alive for breeding or display.
  • Craftable in-game at the workbench, no console commands needed.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only works on small fish — larger creatures are still killed if you ram them.
  • Requires a Sea Truck with aquarium modules attached, so it's useless in early game before you build those.
  • Mod description cuts off mid-sentence ('Aquariums can also be fully...'), leaving full functionality unclear.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Subnautica: Below Zero players who already have or plan to build a Sea Truck and want an easier way to stock aquariums without killing fish. Great for completionists collecting all species alive. Skip if you haven't unlocked the Sea Truck yet or don't use aquarium modules.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Craft the Fish Scoop at the workbench after installing the mod, then attach it to a Sea Truck module slot alongside an aquarium module.
  • When enabled, ram small fish to scoop them into aquariums; disable the module if you want to kill fish for food.
  • Test the mod in a creative save first to see how it interacts with your current Sea Truck upgrades.
