As a Fish Pond enjoyer, I am so ready to build 5 more fish ponds that I probably don’t need LOL

I plan on having 3 sheds full if crystalariums 1 for jade (duh) 1 for quartz and one for fire quartz . I think ill add one for diamond. Should take a very long time to fill 3 or 4 sheds. ( Not making big sheds since would take longer)

I love making ponds early game, why let sturgeons go to waste? Get that caviar going!

Insane buff

Now when you say, "my team of scientists," i picture your fuzzy little pets.

I like your video layout and editing, this was a good watch ❤

surprised you were able to find 10/11 uses

❤ for the Scientists

I guess i should try to catcha legend... I will try but will be buying waivers for the legendary fish i cant catch before 5 years have passed..

That was my dream!

I wonder if eric was watching all the 100 days videos and saw everyone selling their smoked legends for such a high profit, so instead he added this as an alternative so they get kept around lol. He's been known to watch content about the game, so it's not out of the realm of possibility to me. He also seems like he's (rightfully) attached to the rare items in the game and wants them to be kept as mementos/a reminder of a hard task you worked hard to complete not just something you chuck in the shipping bin, so this is a win for both situations. I'm curious to see how long it takes to get enough aged roe to make it worth more than a smoked legend with all the perks if artistan and fishing levels 5 and 10. Either way I love this little update in general!

I love the science videos. Fish Ponds are legit now. given that its almost totally passive income its absolutely worth setting this up and letting it cook asap year 2. Legend roe is probably overtuned atm. I'd like to see it scaled back to 900-1K so its better than the others but the margin is less. I'd rather have the assorted colors balanced as currently its 3x more valuable to run the Legend.

It's interesting to see how differently everyone ranks the various farms. The one thing that seems pretty consistent is that the forest farm and the standard farm seem to rank highly for most people which is funny since I am not particularly fond of either. I actually like the riverland farm now that it has a fish smoker which seems to be a pretty unpopular option. I do however completely agree that those plank bridges need to go. Yuck.

I got 16 Legend roe (With golden animal cracker) and got 40,480g!

IMO I feel that there should be an upgrade to the fishponds to allow for legendary fish. Normal fish would get a boost in those upgraded ponds

Honestly? When you say "scientists", for some reason I imagine a bunch of Junimos with lab coats helping you.

A big thanks to you and the scientists, this is very welcome information to get this quickly!

I mean you already convinced me on fish ponds, now, more so.

But the coffee beans can be brewed and when drank, you move faster

Okay I don't care for anything else in the video, I had no idea you could eject all fish with that button at once, I always fished the pond empty before clicking the empty pond button...

I have to do again a fish only run with all the new stuff. Fishing mastery, legendary ponds, smokers and animal crackers seem a massive buff

Imagine catching iridium quality legendary fish and then accidentally downgrading it permanently to normal quality. That would blow.

Я поставил тебе дизлайк за кол-во воды и бесполезной информации в начале видео.

Bruh I literally just caught and sold all of them I'm pissed

I use fish ponds to get items, not really profit, profit is side thing which is caused by failing to get what I actually want, so I dont think this is OP, also I dont know exact math, but barn filled with pigs or sheep needs about same place as pond, lets assume second pond size as outdoor area for them, and it is still better and more versitile, with sheep or any animal that produces inside building, and auto grabber, you need even less maintanance, this is bemefitial that it runs on full scale right away, but dont grow at all, so maybe if you dont have other fish or if you have just some spare space for pond, it is surely great option, else I guess collector/builder/roleplayer things are bigger benefit of those

The Legend pond will finally be an efficient use of farm space. You can make like 500 g/day from preserves jars in the unmodified game, and around 200-250 g/farmed tile. The fish pond takes a 5x5 square (25 total tiles) on the farm map, where machines take a single tile and can often be placed outside the farm map. However, if your numbers in the video are correct, a Legend farm pond (at just over 300 g/tile) already beats most crops, with a minor* amount of support from preserve jars to age the roe. Not to mention the convenience of continuous operation. * -- Since you get ~1 roe/day per fish pond, you only need ~2 jars per pond. A comparable plot of starfruit would need a bit more than 4 jars, or 11 kegs.

Love for the scientists! Doing real work out there!

if only they kept the bug where you can double fishpond item everyday

Legend absolutely gonna get nerfed. Values probably cut in half at least.

Thank you scientists!! <33

Wow this is good. When i read patch notes for 1.6.9 i didn't expect new content, and when i found out about legendary roe i thougth it would be on par with Lava Eel. This is huge! Kinda wish it worked back when i did my Sellout farm for Joja Mart achievement. I fished so much i had level 10 by Spring 20. Didn't get to catch The Legend though :(

Thank you I was looking for this info and one of your followers posted about you doing this video in his reply. Keep up the great content!

im a big fan of ponds, i always get some lava eel, because they are good source of money and they look nice, but this is a huge upgrade 😮

This is so cool, thanks for taking the time on experimenting

I always did find fishing to be a early-game task for making money, by the time I have the farm set up and running, I'm spending most of my time and energy doing that, or getting materials. The smoker makes it much more worthwhile to do, giving the money can be now 3x more. Was surprised to see that it has both the angler and artisan bonuses.

Better then I thought it'd be, which is awesome. Finally being able to farm legend Roe really gives you a reason to catch one asap, can catch one in the games first spring and just live on Roe

The most a Legend (II) could sell for before smoking is 15k. You’re saying these fish ponds give bursty output that averages higher than an iridium star, best profession, unsmoked fish every day? That’s wild! With a good fishing setup, I've caught upwards of 10 of them in a day. Thats 150k per day, or ~1M per week ever after.

Ive always been a fish pond enjoyer but it has always been a shame that they pale in comparison to to kegs and wine when it came to profit, plus if you really want to rake in the money you would need to allot a LOT of space. Now that the legends can now be placed in them, and the fact that you can get absurd amounts of roe from them, means I can finally begin my Fish Pond-only farm!

I love fishing and a challenging farm is fun. Riverland S tier for me.

The Stardew Valley fish farmers can't stop winning! Space is also a limiting factor. Especially if you want the other fish ponds for useful items. The problem becomes clearer on the farm maps with fewer tiles where you can place them.

Im getting 49.588-63.756g every day from the legend pond. I consistently get 7-9 roe. Thought it was a bug at first

Extended family is a late game quest so i can't imagine theyll get nerfed

great job Scientist/team for another great number crunching! always great to see new videos from you too!

I think this change was necessary to balance out the smoker - I got to the desert festival year 1 by catching and smoking the Legend on the 13th of Spring; it’s not 42k without farming 10 (or iridium quality), but 22,500 in a single fish is still massive less than 2 weeks into the game. The fishpond being this good makes smoking & selling more of a decision again 😊

I think they will nerf the price of the extended family qi quest fish since you can capture multiple Legend II.

I think I would've appreciated a comparison to lava eels and the blob fish, but oh well. I still didn't know just how profitable their roe would be.

Wow, i didn't know about a new SV update. That's a nice surprise! And finally legendary fish ponds without mods. Again great video and research! So i had the urge to look into the code and here is what i found: The legendary fish ponds work mostly like normal fish ponds. So a population of 1 will always have a chance of 77% to get no produce. Fits the data of your experiment. After that the fishs produce is seperated by price. So a legendary fish worth between 501g and 1000g produces 1-17 roe per day with a 100% chance (after the population check, so resulting in 23%). All amounts should be equally likely. Like we can see in your data, there seems to be no trend and just randomness. So in a simple table for all legendary fish: Fish Price | Amount of Roe | Notes 0-500g | 8-28 (23%) | not in the game without mods 501-1000g | 1-17 (23%) | Mr. Angler, Glacierfish and Mutant Carp (and Extended Family) 1001-1500g | 1-11 (23%) | Crimsonfish (+Extended Family) 1501-2000g | 1-9 (23%) | not in the game without mods 2001-2500g | 1-9 (18.4%) | not in the game without mods, 80% chance to produce after 23% chacne resulting in 18.4% 2501-3000g | 1-9 (16.1%) | not in the game without mods, 70% chance to produce 3001-3500g | 1-9 (13.8%) | not in the game without mods, 60% chance to produce 3501-4000g | 1-9 (11.5%) | not in the game without mods, 50% chance to produce 4001-4500g | 1-9 (10.35%) | not in the game without mods, 45% chance to produce 4501-5000g | 1-9 (9.2%) | Legend and Legend II, 40% chance to produce 5001g+ | 1-9 (8.05%) | not in the game without mods, 35% chance to produce So for example the Crimsonfish should produce on average 6 roes on 23% of the days. So in total 1.38 roe/day. I didn't dig deeper yet, so i can't confirm if there are any other changes to those stats in the code. For example the chance to get nothing out of the legend fish pond should be over 90% but you still got less than 80% of the days nothing. But in the most likely files i couldn't find anything changing these values. So maybe the chance to get roe from the legend got reduced in the 1.6.10 update? (I looked into it and the file really changed, but i can't see what changed)

I have 52 fish ponds with lava eels in them. I also have 19 legend fish in reserve. Holy moly...

Aw I want the orange tang pond but I also wanted a tank with 3 anglers
