New Tools for Your Fishy Life
We’ve been busy behind the scenes at Sass & Fins, and I’m excited to finally share some of the newest tools we’ve been working on. These aren’t just new products — they’re things we created because we wanted breeding, organizing, and managing your fish to be easier, smarter, and a little more fun.
SMART BREED VENDOR
A clean, compact vendor made for your breedable fish.
Selling breedable fish doesn't have to mean cluttered displays or manually updating every little detail. The Smart Breed Vendor gives your customers the important information they need right on the front of the vendor.
Designed specifically for breedable fish, it provides an easy-to-read display for:
• Species
• Breed
• Sex
• Quantity
• Price
• Fish Image
Everything is presented in a compact, low-profile design that works beautifully in fish shops, breeding rooms, market stalls, or individual display spaces.
AT-A-GLANCE INFORMATION
Customers can quickly see what fish are being offered, what type they are, how many are available, and the asking price — without having to dig through a cluttered setup.
MADE FOR FISH SELLERS
Whether you're running a dedicated fish shop or simply selling extras from your breeding collection, the Smart Breed Vendor gives your fish a professional, organized presentation.
Compact • Informative • Breedable-Friendly
A smarter-looking way to put your fish up for sale.

Smart Breed Vendor
The Smart Breed Vendor is designed to make displaying and selling your breedables easier. It handles the breeding-related information for you while giving you the ability to customize the display texture on the right side with your own texture.
It’s a simple tool, but one that can make a big difference when you’re setting up a shop or breeding area. Its a limited quantity vendor that tracks the fish as you sell them. Its very clear to the customer and yourself what’s inside.
🐟 SASS & FINS™ SMART CRATE
Breeder Edition
Organize your fish. Manage your breeders. Rez with ease.
The Sass & Fins Smart Crate — Breeder Edition is built for fish breeders who need a cleaner, faster way to organize and manage their breeding stock.
Store your fish directly inside the crate and instantly keep track of Species, Breed, Sex, and Quantity right on the built-in display. The quantity count updates automatically as fish are added, removed, or rezzed—no manual counting required.
BREEDER-FOCUSED FEATURES
🐠 Smart Fish Identification
Display the Species, Breed, Sex, and Quantity of the fish stored inside.
🔢 Automatic Quantity Tracking
The crate automatically counts the objects in its inventory and updates the display whenever your stock changes.
♀♂ Male & Female Identification
Set your fish as Female or Male and the crate displays an easy-to-read color-coded symbol—pink for female and blue for male.
📦 Copy & No-Copy Compatible
Works with both Copy and No-Copy fish. For No-Copy breeding stock, the automatic quantity display makes it especially easy to keep track of what remains in your crate.
REZ YOUR WAY
Need one fish? Grab one.
Need a group? Choose:
1 • 2 • 4 • 8 • 16 • ALL
When rezzing multiple fish, the Smart Crate automatically spaces them according to your saved settings and sends them outward from the crate's designated rez side.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR SETUP
Adjust your crate to fit your breeding area with configurable:
Rez Distance
Object Spacing
Fish Information
Administrator Access
Reset Defaults
Add trusted administrators to help operate the crate while keeping protected configuration settings under the owner's control.

Smart Crate — Breeder Edition
We also gave our Smart Crate a breeder-focused upgrade.
The Smart Crate — Breeder Edition is designed specifically with breeders in mind, making it easier to manage and work with your fish while keeping everything neat and organized.
If you spend a lot of time sorting, storing, and managing your breedables, this one was made for you. I wanted something so that I could see what was in there but at the same time, keep a low profile and not take up a lot of space. I tuck these under each of my fishing tank racks.
🐟 SMART FISH TRACKER HUD
Your fish. Scanned, identified, and just a click away.
Ever look at a fish and wonder “What IS that?”
The Smart Fish Tracker HUD makes it easy to get information about compatible fish from Rainbow Reef — right from your Second Life screen.
Just wear the HUD, look directly at your fish, and hit SCAN. The tracker identifies the fish and displays its available information at a glance.
The Smart Fish Tracker HUD just got smarter! Now includes a MINIMIZE feature, so you can wear it all the time without taking up your screen — plus it can now SCAN EGGS and track your egg counts!

Smart Fish Tracker HUD — FREE Group Gift!
One of the things I’m most excited about is the Smart Fish Tracker HUD — and it’s FREE as a Sass & Fins group gift! (Which is FREE to join right now.)
We wanted something that could help breeders keep track of their fish without adding another complicated system to their routine. Just wear it, use it, and let it help you keep things organized. I keep mine in my faves bin so I can find it quickly when I need it.

The Updated Chum-Core Dispenser
And finally, our Chum-Core Dispenser has received an update!
We’ve refined the system and added six new colors, all available through the texture HUD. Same handy dispenser, just with more ways to make it fit your setup. I was asked by a few of you to update this tool with new colors. I hope I gave you enough options. I’ve even got mine hanging on the wall in our warehouse and it works just as well vertically as well as horizontally. Its definitely a must have fishing tool.
More Tools, More Fun, Less Fuss
One of the things I love most about creating for Sass & Fins is being able to look at the little annoyances that come with running a breeding setup and think, “There has to be an easier way to do this.”
That’s really where these tools come from.
We’ll keep working on new ideas, improvements, and little quality-of-life things that hopefully make your time in-world just a bit easier.
Thank you for supporting Sass & Fins and for letting us keep making fun things for your fishy lives.
