Overview
Comet Glowfish is a bioluminescent fish species in Starsand Island, found in the Spore Cascade zone within the Moonlit Forest. It gets its name from the comet-like luminous trail its body produces as it moves through the underground waters. The Comet Glowfish is one of three Glowfish variants inhabiting the Spore Cascade, alongside the Fringetail Glowfish (Spring) and the Pearl Glowfish (Autumn). This variant appears only during Summer.

The Comet Glowfish is active for 20 hours daily (06:00 to 02:00) and spawns in both sunny and rainy weather. Its Summer-only availability gives you one season per year cycle to target it. Veggie Bait is the only bait that works.
How to Catch
The Spore Cascade is an underground fishing zone inside the Moonlit Forest. Reaching it requires unlocking the Moonlit Forest through the Exploration Club progression. Once inside the dungeon, navigate to the Spore Cascade water body. Equip Veggie Bait (crafted at the Chopper II from crops or foraged plants) and chum the water to attract fish. Use a mid-tier or better Fishing Rod.
Cooking and Processing
Comet Glowfish can be processed into Fish Fillet at the Separator. Fish Fillet is a versatile base ingredient used in recipes like:
Recipe | Ingredients | Buff |
|---|---|---|
3x Fish Fillet | None | |
4x Fish Fillet, 2x Leek | Never Skunked | |
6x Fish Fillet, 2x Leek, 2x Sugar, 1x Fine Salt | Underwater Treasure | |
4x Fish Fillet, 2x Leek, 1x Pepper, 1x Pickled Cabbage | None |
Fish Pond
Comet Glowfish requires 3 oxygen units in a Fish Pond. This is a higher oxygen cost than many other species, so plan your pond capacity accordingly. Its bioluminescent glow makes it one of the more visually appealing fish to keep in a display pond.

Tips
At 143 Coins, the Comet Glowfish is more valuable than the Fringetail Glowfish (124 Coins). Prioritize catching it during Summer if you need income from Moonlit Forest trips.
Summer is also when the Ink Phoenixfish appears in the Spiritshade River. Bring both Veggie Bait and extra bait types to hit both zones in one expedition.
Selling at the Merchant Ship doubles the price to 286 Coins per fish.
The 3 oxygen cost makes the Comet Glowfish expensive to house in fish ponds. Keep only a few for breeding and sell the rest.
Catching all three Spore Cascade Glowfish (Fringetail, Comet, Pearl) across Spring, Summer, and Autumn completes that set in the Islandpedia.
