All Types of Fish Genshin Impact

black perch

These fish are often found in various water bodies. Their fillet is quite fatty, so it is often used in Teyvat fish dishes.
Black perch is one of the most common fish in the waters of Teyvat. It is said that the darker the back of a fish, the older it is, and experienced anglers can always tell the quality of a fish by the color of its scales.

I will answer everything!

blue perch

Fish commonly found in various water bodies. Their fillet is quite fatty, so it is often used in Teyvat fish dishes.
The fillet of blue perch is softer than that of black perch, which is very popular with customers who prefer delicate dishes.

golden perch

Fish commonly found in various water bodies. Their fillet is quite fatty, so it is often used in Teyvat fish dishes.
Golden-scaled bass are much rarer than black or blue bass and are said to bring good luck to anglers.
Previously, cards and talismans depicting golden perches were sold on the streets of Li Yue. Also in Inazuma, it is customary to compare the glare of the setting sun sparkling on the water with golden perches playing in the waves.

Orizia

A brisk little fish known for its beautiful petal-shaped tail.
It is considered an ornamental fish, but because its meat is juicy, without bones and fat, it is also often cooked and served on the table.

glaze orysia

A brisk little fish known for its beautiful petal-shaped tail.
She is nervous and often behaves unpredictably. Often you can see how she twitches and flounders, as if in pain. Some scholars suggest that this may be due to her natural desire to play in public.

sugar orysia

A brisk little fish known for its beautiful petal-shaped tail.
Probably, this type of oriziya loves sweets most of all. Each of their organs seems to be tuned to search for sweets. In their search, they swim along all the streams of Teyvat, and, guided by the principle of absolute justice, they do not refuse a single sweet, even the one that is hooked. It is worth making the bait, as they immediately peck at it.
This fish is ideal for beginners.

blue orysia

A brisk little fish known for its beautiful petal-shaped tail.
They used to say this: if you put an ordinary orizia in a vat of blue paint, you will get an expensive blue orizia. Initially, this was an innocent children's joke, but later unscrupulous fishmongers began to use it. Therefore, from time to time you can hear someone ask: “Why did this blue orysia fade?” Because of this, the Department of Citizens Affairs posted a special announcement: “Be vigilant! Blue Orysia isn't always what it seems."

catcher of the dawn

A rare orysia with colorful patterns on the body, similar to the common orysia, but differs in appearance and habits.
It is said that this fish can predict the weather. If you see her jumping out of the water in the first rays of the morning sun, then the weather will be fine all day.

crystal fish

A rare orysia, sparkling like a crystal, with a complex pattern on the body. It can be called the most beautiful orizia.
Merchants claim that this fish, getting into extreme conditions, gives birth to crystal pearls, which are incredibly valuable. Therefore, this orizia is popular with all walks of life, which leads to its high cost. However, this is very funny to knowledgeable fishermen, because the “crystal pearls” are actually axolotl pearls accidentally swallowed by a fish. Why pay such a price then?

stickleback

A ferocious fish with spiny fins, fast and agile. At high speed, it can even split the water stream with its spear-shaped head. Hence the nicknames "sharp spear" and "fast arrow".
Unlike other fish of this species, it can survive for a long time in dry waters thanks to its lungs. In addition, she has gills, and she can also breathe through her skin after shedding her scales. This makes her even more like an amphibian, so she has to deal not only with uninvited fishermen, but also with researchers who strive to deprive her of the title of fish.

Cockerel

A ferocious fish with spiny fins, fast and agile. At high speed, it can even split the water stream with its spear-shaped head. Hence the nicknames "sharp spear" and "fast arrow".
This species is the most proud and irritable. During spawning, even little things can infuriate them. One day, one person noticed how a fish rushes to moving algae, apparently taking this "dance" for a provocation.
"If you come across this fish underwater, please don't look at it." - Wild Fishing Guide. Chapter "Combat stickleback".

Toxin-backed fish

A ferocious fish with spiny fins, fast and agile. At high speed, it can even split the water stream with its spear-shaped head. Hence the nicknames "sharp spear" and "fast arrow".

Known for its poisonous needles. This neurotoxin is strong enough to kill small prey, but does little harm to large creatures, mostly causing confusion and hallucinations.
“Pour it up! Hey Lord of the Stone! Let's wave a glass!" - some fisherman Li Yue, who was stung by a poisonous stickleback.

scarlet devil

A stickleback with a ferocious appearance and temperament to match. This fearsome red bandit will not fail to attack any underwater inhabitant for the sake of getting food. Their fiery red scales are related to the Pyro element, and although they cannot create flames, they can still control heat. They convert the food they eat into energy and focus it on the tips of their lips. These dangerous kisses make them real underwater scoundrels.
"Irreplaceable for ignition." - Wild Fishing Guide. Chapter: Scarlet Devil.

snow wanderer

A rare stickleback native to the Dragonspine Mountains. The character is calm, Nordic. This fish cannot live without the cold, just as a parent cannot live without his child. Although she can survive in warm water, being away from the cold has a bad effect on her psyche - she becomes discouraged and stops breeding.
"Not recommended for fishing." - Wild Fishing Guide. Ice King Chapter

Golden Koi

Initially, it was believed that this large fish is a descendant of dragons.
Long horns on the head, lack of scales, red and gold attire - a real underwater ruler. In fact, they are very far from dragons. They have neither the ability to call rain nor dominance skills, which is why they are often deprived of food by other predatory fish. Therefore, they can be deprived of the title of "descendants of dragons" and rank as "false dragons."

Red Carp Koi

Initially, it was believed that this large fish is a descendant of dragons.
This is a side branch of the false dragons, they can also be called "awakened" false dragons. Unlike its useless brethren, the false dragon shed its bright robes, and instead covered itself with an unprepossessing, but durable shell. He has a harsh character, for the sake of obtaining food and protecting the territory, he is even ready to join the battle. In terms of its combat strength, it can compete with small marine life. He is the basis of the revival of the species, and therefore it is called the "steel sea dragon."

Brown Shirakodai

Brown Shirakodai has a gentle disposition, graceful appearance, beautiful dorsal fins, and is also known as the "underwater queen".
As her body is covered with stripes of an earthy color, so her character is calm, like a rock. It is so calm that it can even be called a disadvantage, because sometimes the fish does not move at all, as if turning into stone, which makes some buyers think that they accidentally bought a dead fish.

Purple Shirakodai

Shirakodai has a gentle disposition, graceful appearance, beautiful dorsal fins, and is also known as the "underwater queen". The body is covered with purple lines. Prefers to live in a group so that it is easier to confront environmental hazards and natural enemies. Experienced fishermen turned this to their advantage: one has only to lure the main fish into the net, as the whole school immediately swims after it.

tea shirakodai

Shirakodai has a gentle disposition, graceful appearance, beautiful dorsal fins, and is also known as the "underwater queen".
The body is covered with brown lines. This fish is extremely curious and shows interest in everything that moves. She expresses it by trying everything on the tooth, and although this is not a deliberate attack, yet in this way she often brings trouble on herself.

Tesei Angelfish

A rare species of Shirakodai found in Li Yue. They can only be found in the waters near the abodes of the Adepts. Their body is covered with white veins. Lifespan is longer than other species, so they are believed to be blessed by the Adepts.
Due to the sacred image of the Adepts, most people in Li Yue refuse to eat this butterfly fish, but still, some believe that by eating it, they will be able to gain longevity.

raimei angel fish

A rare species of Shirakodai from Inazuma that prefers waters with an accumulation of the Electro element. It seems that the electric current brings them pleasure.
According to legend, it comes from a species living in Li Yue. Once merchants brought it to Inazuma, and suddenly it adapted to local conditions. Scientists are studying them with Electro Slimes.
“I…I…can’t…speak…” Some glutton who ate too much raimei angelfish.

moonfinger

A rare species of butterfly fish, radiating light in the pitch darkness of the ocean. They prefer to live in groups. When they come together, they are like the bright moon that has fallen into the sea, hence the origin of the legend of the "Lunar Leviathan". This feature once attracted a huge number of sea creatures seeking light, and in a sense also guided people who were plunged into darkness.

Fugu fish

Small round fins, fat body and blunt head - this is the first impression of this fish. Her appearance reflects her personality: stupid, lazy and slow. But few people know that a secret weapon is hidden under a stupid appearance: the pufferfish sucks in water, and then quickly shoots out a powerful jet. A well-aimed and strong blow can even harm an inept fisherman. A truly first-class underwater killer.
"When meeting, beware of spitting." - Wild Fishing Guide. Fugu Fish chapter.

Bitter Puffer Fish

A rare species of pufferfish. As the name suggests, they produce an extremely caustic pheromone. Compared to regular pufferfish, they shoot less frequently and weaker, but due to the extremely caustic and bitter substance, their shots are no less dangerous. During courtship, males and females can be seen firing these pheromones at each other. Perhaps the transfer of the bitterness of life is their peculiar manifestation of love.
