Better Fishtanks Version: 1.0.7-1.20.1 Patchnotes

QOL Changes: 

- Kelp has higher chances of growing to a larger size when used as a decor item. [40% Chance to be as tall as the Tank, 45% Split across the total height of the fishtank - top and bottom, 15% to be 1 block] 

- Added a filling indicator showing the percentage value of how much water is in the tank when filling it with a bucket. 

- Added a Shader save Workaround for the Translucent Lava that was added for mod compatibility [Yes it is just bright orange water if you are using shaders] 

Compatibility patches: 

- Added Compatibility with Nether depths and other mods that add fish that can survive in Lava.

- As an extra for nether depths added the Seagrass and Kelp form nether depths as decor items when nether depths is installed. 

- As a Parity feature for all kinds of Lava Fish added the Nether Floor Blocks [Netherrack, Soul Sand & Soul Soil] as Fishtank Flooring Options. 

Fixes: 

- Fixed an Issue that caused the Tide mods Fishing rod Bobbers to instantly sink to the floor of the ocean instead of swimming on top of the water as expected. 

- Fixed an issue that caused the Create Water Pipes to not work with the Fishtank. It should now work as suspected. 

- Fixed an Issue that caused lava filled fishtanks to burn down the world around them.
