I find it insane that I have to pay $30k to get stuck with a random combination of fishes each time I restock the pond just because I dont like the combination of fish the system provides. The system should charge you the $30k AFTER you are satisfied with the combination of fishes the system provides. $30k may not sound much but imagine doing this over and over and over just to find the right combination you want. It adds up. I think i've spent close to 1 million already on restocking the dang pond.

Finally got something close to what I want and spent freaking 1.1 million on the pond. This is rediculous. And I got 2 more ponds to adjust. I bet by the time I get those two to my liking, I would have spent enuff to buy someone a house.

or make it so different fish groups/tiers/whatever cost different amounts of money. aka: the expensive fish would cost more than the cheap ones.

That would have been better. Also can I atleast get half of my wasted cash that went into this pond restocking insanity?

I'd have to disagree with you here. If the fish selection degraded over time so that restocking were something you were forced to do once in a while, perhaps, but once you get a set of fish you're content with, you have them for as long as you like - until you change your mind, anyway.

But the thing is, you dont get to see the choice until after you pay the fee. I think its unfair. The fee is way too high to pay on a gamble.

While we're getting in line to ask for money back knowingly spent on game components with randomized elements, I'd for sure like reimbursement for all those raffles I've never won anything from. The lottery, the slot machine in Faith's office, and that time I had the Gemrem's Curse too.

Let me put it this way: Some fish are quite certainly more in demand than others. That being the case, if you got to pick the fish by hand, either the cost would be far higher, or some fish you can currently get now randomly would no longer be on the pond list. The current system is a way for you to get what you want, it just comes at a cost.
