Glowfish

Glowfish is a fish species in Starsand Island. It is a King fish, one of six rare high-value variants that require a strong fishing rod (Noble Rod or higher) to land. Spore Cascade is a special deep-sea zone with its own unique fish species.

King variant; the most valuable fish in the entire game.

Catch Information

How to Catch

Glowfish is a King fish. Use the Noble Rod or higher; the Wooden Rod and Chrono Rod will snap when Glowfish bites. Equip Bug Bait and chum the water during the catch window (00:00-02:00). Wait for a fish shadow, cast onto it, and reel carefully when the line goes red.

• Season required: Autumn

• Weather required: Any

• Time window: 00:00-02:00

• Bait: Bug Bait

Pond Breeding

Glowfish requires no oxygen units when placed in a fish pond, making it a free addition to any pond regardless of capacity.

As a King fish, Glowfish placed in a pond can produce eggs that hatch into sellable fish, providing a passive high-value income stream.

Tips

• Use Hooked on Fate. This Workpedia perk lets you catch ocean fish even without visible shadows. Critical for King fish in zones where shadows can be sparse.

• Activate Rare Bites for daytime King runs. This perk increases the rare-catch rate during daytime fishing windows.

• Sell vs cook vs pond. At 1,607g, Glowfish is highly profitable to sell at the Merchant Ship for 200% value.

• Track time and weather. Open the Phone Apps to check weather forecasts. Some fish only spawn under specific conditions, and missing the window means waiting for the next cycle.
