During your nature walks at Camp Bell Tree, you might have noticed and appreciated the beauty of our mountains and forests, but what about the beauty of our underwater landscapes? Underwater landscapes can be just as beautiful as the mountains and forests — they’re just a bit harder to see! If only there were some way to package that breathtaking underwater scenery down into a glass container to take it home…..

Task 🐬


Your task is to create an aquarium scene in Animal Crossing: New Horizons!

How to Participate 🐬


Create an aquarium scene in Animal Crossing: New Horizons using the outside of your island and take a screenshot. Post your screenshot in this thread for credit! Please note that this event is hosted by @Mick and @Kaiaa!

  • Must be your own photo. No stealing from Google, Pinterest, Reddit, ect!
  • Only one entry per member.
  • Photos must be unedited, this includes in-game filters.
  • Photos must be taken on your own island
  • You must submit a second image wearing a hard hat in Island Designer mode while your character says your Bell Tree username to prove it has been taken on your own island.
  • Only one player character should be visible in the screenshots.
  • You cannot change your entry once you’ve submitted it.
Please note that you are submitting 2 photos for this Event! One with your playable character in their normal outfit and one with your same playable character wearing the designer mode hard hat, standing in the same area of the original picture while your player character says your Bell Tree username!

Entries that are approved will be marked by the staff with the accepted reaction, but don't wait for this to appear. Feel free to Like/Love any entries at any time!

While you can react to any entry, favourites will be decided only by votes from members of the same cabin.

Frequently Asked Questions 🐬


Can I use custom design patterns in my entry?
Yes! You may use patterns designed by yourself or by others for this event.

Can villagers or NPC visitors be in the scene?
Yes!

Are there going to be staff favorites?
No! Favorites will be awarded based on reactions this time around. See the "How to Vote" section!

Can I submit more than one view of my aquarium?
Please fit the entire scene of your aquarium into one screenshot, don’t forget to take a second screenshot in builder mode too!

Harvey’s Island is better, can I use that instead?
We have decided not to allow the use of Harvey’s or indoor rooms for this challenge. Please make an aquarium scene somewhere on your island for it to count.

Who do I contact for questions about this event?
@Mick or @Kaiaa will be your hosts for this event, so please contact them if you have questions!
 
hope it’s okay that i ask a question here, but are we allowed to use custom designs?
 
can it be one type of fish or does the entry have to have multiple different types of fish?
 
Several people have asked if it’s okay to use custom designs. Yes! You may use custom designs whether you made them or not!

Several people have asked if it’s okay to use custom designs. Yes! Only as long as you created them! If you use a custom design, please upload a screenshot of your design with the code and creator ID so we know it was your design and no someone else’s. I will update the OP to reflect this!
This doesn’t apply to me, but I just thought I’d mention that different had been mentioned here. 😊

Edit: Oh, I just noticed the first FAQ and the last FAQ in the OP are the same question with contradicting answers too. Just mentioning so you can delete one, sorry. ❤🏕🌲

Looks like we had a minor miscommunication. You can blame me for that one.
I'm reaching out to Kaiaa, one moment please! 😄
 
Hey everyone, it’s been updated! You can use custom designs, whether you made them or not! No proof needed :) thanks for your patience!
 
I already had this on my island I just added a few things for this. There aren't any fish just diving creatures which I hope is ok! I have a fish area too but its smaller and you can only take one picture so I couldn't include both.
