ModAquaculture 2, Tide
Species32

Saltwater Fish are the ocean-dwelling fish added by two mods: Tide adds 23 species and Aquaculture adds 9. Each species has a fish item, a bucket and a spawn egg, and all of them use the water-ambient mob category, so they are passive and never attack. Tide's fish are mostly caught with a rod and cannot be found in every ocean; several Tide species have no natural spawn at all and appear only through Tide Fishing. Aquaculture's species spawn in a fixed set of cold, frozen, beach and warm ocean biomes and are the easier group to find by walking the coast.

Spawning

Fourteen Tide species have natural biome spawns, and all nine Aquaculture species spawn naturally. The generated table lists each species' biomes, weights and group sizes; see the table below.

  • Tide's naturally spawning saltwater fish use the 12-biome ocean set shared by most of the group, including Deep Warm Ocean. Aquathorn is the exception: it spawns only in the six deep ocean biomes.
  • Great White Shark has spawn weight 1, the lowest in the group. Mahi-Mahi, Manta Ray, Sailfish and Swordfish have weight 2. Most other Tide species have weight 10.
  • Aquaculture's Atlantic Herring and Tuna spawn in 17 and 19 biomes respectively, including beaches. Pink Salmon also spawns in Frozen River, a river biome.
  • Saltwater fish spawn at the surface of the water and share the water-ambient cap with other water-ambient mobs, so mods that add more fish to the same biomes compete for the same slots.

Fishing-only species

Nine Tide species have no biome spawn entries and only appear through fishing or special sources. These are Marstilus, Coelacanth, Spore Stalker, Sun Emblem, Neptune Koi, Shooting Starfish, Saturn Cuttlefish, Urania's Pisces and Pluto Snail.

Ocean Perch, Sailfish and Neptune Koi share the same base fishing conditions: saltwater, the overworld, water as the hooked fluid and a hook height above Y 40. Fishing below Y 40 will not produce them. Neptune Koi also requires a new moon. Each entry is weighted by its selection weight, then modified by temperature and by the conditions above (see Tide Fishing). Ocean Perch has a selection weight of 50, Sailfish 8 and Neptune Koi 5.1 before modifiers, so the rare species are much less likely to be caught.

Behavior

Every saltwater fish in the group is passive. None of them attacks or pursues a player, and each one plays a hurt sound when struck. Movement depends on the species' entity class:

  • Schooling fish swim in groups. Tide's Mackerel, Angelfish, Aquathorn, Anchovy, Ocean Perch, Red Snapper, Flounder, Snook, Spore Stalker and Neptune Koi use this behaviour, as do all nine Aquaculture species.
  • Smooth swimmers move in long, steady arcs. Marstilus, Coelacanth, Mahi-Mahi, Great White Shark, Sailfish, Swordfish, Tuna, Saturn Cuttlefish, Manta Ray and Urania's Pisces use this behaviour. They search for water and then swim at random.
  • Sun Emblem is a jellyfish. It drifts through the water at random and slowly sinks. When it has not moved for 100 ticks it stops entirely.
  • Pluto Snail is amphibious. Its speed is much lower on land than in water, and when it is out of the water it moves toward water within about 10 blocks. Its air supply is held at 300 ticks, so it does not drown.
  • Shooting Starfish has no movement speed. It stays where it spawns and emits end rod particles.

Drops

Each Tide species drops its fish item. The drop is cooked if the fish is on fire when a player kills it. Aquaculture species drop their raw fish with a random chance of Bone Meal.

Aquaculture species can be turned into fillets with a fillet knife. The yield depends on the fish: Atlantic Halibut gives 14, Pacific Halibut 12, Tuna 10 and Atlantic Cod 6. Fish weights are only shown when the randomWeight option is on, which is off by default. With it on, Tuna weighs 30–1508 lb, Atlantic Halibut 50–710 lb and Atlantic Cod 10–211 lb.

Sailfish and Swordfish

Sailfish and Swordfish are both fish and melee weapons. Their items use the sword class with 250 durability. Sailfish has an attack damage of 5 and an attack speed of 1. Swordfish has an attack damage of 6 and an attack speed of 1.2. Neither can be repaired with a repair item. Both are in the vanilla swords tag.

Neptune Koi

Neptune Koi is the rarest catch in the group. It is only available through fishing, and it needs the overworld, saltwater and a new moon. Its journal rarity is very rare, and its selection quality is 0.5, which lowers its odds relative to the other species.

Sun Emblem

Sun Emblem is a jellyfish. It is slow and passive, and it crafts into Jelly Torches, which Tide places underwater.

Pluto Snail

Pluto Snail is the only amphibious species. It is much faster in water than on land, which makes it an awkward catch on the shore.

Shooting Starfish

Shooting Starfish has a movement speed of zero, so it stays where it is found. It is only available through fishing.

Aquaculture species

The nine Aquaculture species are all schooling fish. Their fillet yields range from 6 (Atlantic Cod) to 14 (Atlantic Halibut), and Tuna has the widest weight range (30–1508 lb) when randomWeight is on.

  • Each species has a bucket and a spawn egg. Tide's fish buckets keep the caught length in their NBT.
  • Tuna can be cooked in a furnace, smoker or campfire to make Grilled Tuna.
  • Fish Satchel holds up to 64 stacks of fish and collects matching catches automatically while it is open.
  • Fishing Journal and Fishy Notes records each catch and tracks completion of the Tide fish list.
  • Tide Fishing describes how rods, hooks and bait change the catch pool for these species.

Tips

Carry a Fish Satchel and keep the Fishing Journal open to track which saltwater species you have caught. Fish above Y 40 in the overworld, in open water, to meet the saltwater conditions. For Neptune Koi, wait for a new moon and fish in saltwater above Y 40. If a species will not turn up, check its fishing data or the spawn table on this page. For fillets, a fillet knife on Tuna gives 10 fillets, and on Atlantic Halibut gives 14.
