Guide:Fish and Crab Training
From Growtopia
This is a guide in training fishes and crabs.
Gone Crabby! was a monthly updated introduced on the 3rd of March, 2016. It featured crabs, which could be obtained from consuming 5 of a bait in Lobster Traps. Crabs were only made trainable on Player Appreciation Week Day 5 on the 27th of August, 2021.
Gone Fishin'! was another monthly update introduced on the 14th of January, 2018. It featured new fishes, baits, a new pack and other fishing-related items, as well as the ability to train fish for unique rewards.
A player can train a fish or a lobster using a Fish Tank, a Training Port, a perfect fish or crabs, and other fish, crabs, or Fish Flakes as food. The Training Port must be placed on a Fish Tank, similarly to a Fish Tank Port. Upon wrenching the Training Port, the player will have the option to "add a fish". Players can only add perfect or enormous fish/crab and all other fish/crab will be rejected.
Fish and Crab Training
Upon being placed inside the Fish Tank Port, the fish/crab will start on level 1 and will require food to gain XP. Fish/Crab can be fed specific fish/crab respectively, Fish Chunks or Fish Flakes. Fish Chunks will give 1XP each, Fish Flakes will give 50XP each and depending on the type of fish, different amounts of XP may be given.
Fish/Crab can be in different states which can be viewed by wrenching the Training Port. The different states are Starving, Hungry, Slightly Hungry, Content, Moderately Full, Super Full, Sick, Almost Dying or Dead. Depending on the state of the fish/crab, the fish/crab may change color and appearance. Players need to feed the fish/crab appropriately to prevent overfeeding, causing the fish/crab to die or become sick.
The amount of XP required to level a fish/crab up is:
| Level | XP Required |
|---|---|
| 1 | 100 |
| 2 | 150 |
| 3 | 175 |
| 4 | 250 |
| 5 | 350 |
| 6 | 450 |
| 7 | 600 |
| 8 | 750 |
| 9 | 1000 |
| 10 | 1500 |
If a fish/crab is not properly fed, it can starve or die; however, they can be revived using a Fish Reviver. If a fish/crab becomes sick (or is fed Green Beer), Fish Medicine can cure the fish/crab.
Upon successfully completing training and reaching Level 10, rewards can be given out such as respective leashes, rides or related items.
