Appearance
There is so far only one type of non-predator fish in The Blockheads. It has a round body with curved, vertical stripes and a broad tail fin.
Where Found
Fish can spawn in almost any body of water near kelp, and have been found in water as shallow as two blocks. They have not been seen in underground water.
Behavior
Fish seem to swim idly in the water, appearing to undulate while doing so. They also emit bubbles, small, lightly-colored squares that quickly diminish and vanish. Their bubbles can rise above the surface.
They will move away from a swimming Blockhead, and so in shallow water can be herded. They will ignore a Blockhead walking in very shallow water. They will swim quickly away from a Blockhead that has struck them, moving faster than a swimming Blockhead.
When encountering the bait on the end of a cast fishing rod line, an interested fish will quickly move back and forth until it gets hooked and reeled in.
In cold regions where freezing occurs, fish will tend to swim deeper as ice forms. Yet it's possible for a fish to become trapped in ice, in which case it will eventually despawn if not freed. They can also despawn in unfrozen water.
Despawning fish make a watery "blurp" sound. They have not been reported as dropping anything when they despawn.
Health
- See also: Creature Hit Chart
Fish can be killed by the usual means (hand or tool), but it's more efficient to use a fishing rod. At least eighteen (18) fish can be caught with one fishing rod.
Uses
A caught fish goes into inventory as raw fish meat.
