Now, if you've gathered as much quartz as I have, you're always looking for ways to get rid of it and have to go find some more. So why not spend it on the most essential of all items: fish tanks!
These invaluable containers let you hold lots of fish to look at. And you can eat them too!
But I couldn't be satisfied with just any fish. No, I wanted the best fish! The kind that would restore the most hunger! The kind that would give the most energy in a Bioreactor! (Not that I would do such a thing, of course. It's just important to have the information.) The kind that would be the easiest to catch two of!
And so, I created a spreadsheet for determining which fish is best based on a variety of stats, including:
But that's not all! The Fish-Efficiency chart also includes the stats on a full selection of food or resource-producing plants, both above and below water, as well as an all new chart on other egg-laying creatures!

- H₂O
- Energy (Not that I would chop up adorable little fish for use in a Bioreactor, of course)
- Catchability
- Rarity
- Biome
- And, finally, quotes from the game on the taste and nutritional value of the fish.

So it doesn't harm the integrety of your base?
Nope, captive bred crash fish are docile. When released they'll swim off somewhere, not sure if they will attack anything.
The larger the Tank the more the creatures will spawn.
I remember the day I found this out, I was nearly crying with joyful relief after spending all my time trying to catch fish to eat in the safe shallows, when they were nearly all gone.
Seems to me recently the breeding rate has decreased though? Seems to take longer for baby ones to appear.
Of course the Egg-laying ones take the longest, but the Peepers and Bladderfish breed the fastest.
God I remember that... devs of course fixed that issue and now allow new creatures to spawn into the game if they're killed or eaten.
howso? explain pls!
I dunno, I find the floral flavor of the garryfish to be intriguing at the very least.

The big food and energy fish is certainly the reginald. Putting in a few of them in a tank they will breed until you are stuffed. I usually use them cured as long range food provision replacements for the limited nutrient bars.
The bladderfish of course has to be turned into water. But the big water bottles from the filtration machines are far better.
And for the rest I usually have marblemelons at my base. The most practical food and water replacement at all.
The main problem is that the diversity is only optical because they are reduced to 2 (food+water) numbers. And only the best wins.
Suggestion:
The devs should allow biomaterial extraction from fish and plants, so each fish and plant could be a unique source for something.
EDIT:
The scanner should not only provide danger information for each species, but also water and food level and maybe the bioresources that could be extracted.
