Ah ok, so it's nothing to do with upgrades then, good to know. I have not yet upgraded my Seamoth in Experimental so I was wondering if this was some change to how that works and what is or is not supposed to be causing hull damage to a non-upgraded…

Yes indeed! The more planters of creepvine, the more hoopfish... so hopefully this means in the future other types of fish will also congregate around other types of things you plant! -
@TenebrousNova
Yes! I meant to expand on that further in my essay at the top of this page. It seems the Creepvine planters are causing these tiny hoopfis… -
I found mine on the sides of the mountain island ... very near the surface. I never found any on the islands but I didn't go really deep there.

That's a good idea! I'll see if I can find the resident hoverfish and try breeding some more. I highly doubt there's something that sophisticated going on (genetic personality traits?!) and is just coincidental but who knows.

Something may have changed in yesterday's experimental updates because I am experiencing much more frequent freezing / lag as well. This is to be expected with experimental updates since they change things so frequently ... I keep playing it though …

Yes, I hope they are reading it at least for the entertainment of watching some of us vainly try to become alien world Sea-Life Husbandry Specialists, haha. I have a feeling they are reading and observing (lurkers!) much as we obse… -

Exactly my thoughts on this issue! I could easily just do a quick 'save' before entering dangerous waters and the reload that if I die so there doesn't really seem to be much point to heavy death penalties.
I too almost… -
I'm so glad the Ecosystem discussion continues!
Update to Vex Ecology Observations and Testing:
I decided to give every determined effort to re-populate my 'home' biome area: Shallows bordering Kelp Forest near vent/geyser - … -
Oh the irony of that name! Now you know why it was spinning out of control. Name it something safer next time.
Fun story - sorry to… -
I fully support more detailed methods of preserving and repopulating the beautiful creatures of Subnautica.

I agree with your points that natural breeding should occur as you leave an area and are no longer taking fish from it.… -
This is actually why I waited so long to purchase the game. I finally caved in and got it during the Steam holiday sales. I've had it on my wishlist for a long time.
I knew I was going to love it and gobble up the content at a rapid rate… -
Same for me, could not find it in deployables and then it suddenly appeared after crafting some things. Seems they are going over to a 'discovery' system for opening up new items via crafting.

I do not think it's the exception regarding their vanishing. In my non-experimental build playthrough, they vanished from the kelp forest quite early on. I did find them further out in another part of the biome but not the crevice … -

I completely agree about the radiation issue!
In fact, my first playthrough, before I read comments on Steam Community forums from a Developer stating the no fish respawn is intentional and to encourage players to explo… -
You can safely swim down into the vent, even when it's expelling heat / debris. Currently at least. That may change in the future if they make the heat actually hot enough to do damage. I think 32-24 Celsius is about the hottest I've seen it get in …

Yes ... there's a tunnel / cave system down in there. I was just thinking of what a great challenge that would be - to figure out a way to build a base down in there and place a geo-thermal energy generator! *edit: yes to crashes down there - go exp…

Well put and more great "food for thought" on this concerning issue!
IS there a delicate balance at play (or will be in future game) that we need to be aware of as part of our long-term goals?
The Aurora was… -
Update on what I've been doing since I posted my Ecosystem essay:
I've taken it upon myself to be a coral reef custodian and I'm breeding fish like mad in the experimental version - they're all working so far. I'm doing a re-population p… -
Are you asking about the night on the regular build or experimental build? Because I loaded up experimental to give it a spin and man is it DARK in the new graphics looks. I personally think it looks amazing that way because all the bioluminescent f…

That is the simple bottom line. Well said.
Players are not going to stay in one place for the duration of their gaming experience. Why would anyone do that? If this is the only reason for not wanting respawning fish pop… -

That bit about leaving them alone and not needing our help - isn't that the whole point?
If we screwed up the ecosystem somehow because of crashing the equivalent of a nuclear bomb into the sea, and then find a way to h… -
Hi, just curious if there's any update on this issue in the Experimental branch? I do understand experimental is very buggy. I really want to participate in testing experimental but I have this particular glitch (I did some searches here and on Stea…
