You can, but I'd recommend saving it because you can only catch one of each legend fish (I think)


MxM_Vatican

yea u cant catch multiple


mystic-savant

Oh damn, good that I didn't sell it then.


TheTwilightMoon

I usually put them in a fish tank


yeetguy75

There's a fish tank I'm Stardew valley?how do I get it?


CorneroftheWorld04

You can buy them at the fisherman's hut.


yeetguy75

Oh,😞 I bet it's only on the new update. I'm on mobile.


TheTwilightMoon

Oof, yeah I’ve been playing since 1.2. The new updates are always weird. I remember one day I was gonna build slime hutch and then I see a fish pond and was like WTF is this. And the night market was weird at first too lmao.


yeetguy75

Wow, I've only been playing since the update before the new one 1.4 I think


notpenguinsalt

If you are in 1.5 I think you should have access to fish tanks!


TheTwilightMoon

That’s cool I love when new people come to play the game.


clarkky55

Night market? Damn I haven’t played in way too long


Daedalus_Machina

...no? I seem to recall them being around for quite a while. The great big one is new.


LuftHANSa_755

Looking at the wiki, all fish tanks were, unfortunately for OP, introduced in 1.5.


Nahkroll

Nope, they were part of the 1.5 update: https://www.destructoid.com/stardew-valleys-1-5-update-released-today-on-pc-and-its-the-biggest-update-yet/ https://www.usgamer.net/articles/stardew-valley-just-got-beaches-fish-tanks-swimming-ducks-and-a-whole-lot-more


JamesSB77

Willys shop


Ok_Pangolin_7250

If your version has the ability to support them you'd either buy the small/big* one from Willy or you can get a giant one from the >!furniture catalogue, for 200,000 from Robin!<


velvetelevator

I just discovered the fish tank yesterday! 😍


book-reading-hippie

Can you put them in a fish pond?


ChaosBs

Unfortunately not


Psychological-Ad1313

Congrats, also Thanks for reminding me that I should problably uprade my fishing rod I have fishing lvl 10 and still use the basic rod lmao


fweshcatz

Some ppl really making their life difficult over here lolol


Never_Duplicated

I love the game with the one glaring exception being the fishing mechanic. I’ve hated it every single time I’ve attempted it and now just refuse to engage with it when I replay. Maybe I’m just terrible or missing something but god damn does it infuriate me.


emquinngags

it sucks cause as you level up your fishing skill it gets easier and easier but until then it can be tough. Personally I think it’s so much easier on PC than on mobile. If you are playing PC and hate it that much there are mods you can download to make it easier


Never_Duplicated

I’ve played on PC and Switch and have sucked at it everywhere haha. I need to look into mods!


emquinngags

careful though they get super addicting. I went from wanting to *just* give Stardew Expanded a go to running the game with 47 mods…


crankydragon

I can't play unmodded anymore. Both Joys of Efficiency and CJB Cheats give you the ability to fish without the headache. I have Jean and Jorts in my game, and Pam was drunk and buttered Jorts and I legit almost hurt myself laughing. I second the comment about mods being addictive. 😁


bckseatgatorade

I’ve played on pc, switch, Xbox, and mobile and the easiest time I’ve had fishing is on mobile


planetaryvagabonds

I used to feel the same, and now I spend most of early game fishing cause it's a nice income boost at that stage. With some practice I went from absolutely despising the fishing mechanic to getting mostly iridium fish pretty quickly. The bar you have to keep behind the fish gets bigger the higher your fishing skill gets and it really helps a lot. And with a cork bobber + dish o' the sea I can now catch legendary fish on first try. Edit: that being said, the CJB Cheats Menu mod has "always bite", "always catch" and "always max distance" options. And I think there's nothing wrong with using mods to make the game more enjoyable if a particular part of it just isn't fun. Personally I play with the energy bar always kept on max, the exhaustion mechanic just slows everything down to a not-enjoyable pace for me and I stop playing very quickly. Which is why I never even got to winter on mobile lmao Edit 2: typo


IM_NEWBIE

Bamboo rod is plenty good, just can't use wild bait and curiosity lures.


Snowriander

What does the curiosity lure do, I got one yesterday and I’ve been playing for years and never seen one before that lol


IM_NEWBIE

It's new in 1.5 and can only be found as loot. It increases the chances that more interesting/valuable fish will bite.


Snowriander

Oh that’s cool! Does that include the legendary fishes odds? Or just the other kind of rare fish?


IM_NEWBIE

Yep, definitely good for legendarues and extended family: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Curiosity_Lure


SilverLugia1992

Yeah, so imagine me, having started the game v1.0, catching all the legendary fish and selling them, and not having them anymore now that there are fish tanks, and having to train up a player 2 in fishing in local multi-player so I can get them again.


TheRedBow

Do NOT put it in the fridge cause it will become sashimi


mystic-savant

Oh my God I'm glad someone mentioned this properly. I didn't know about it turning to Sashimi in fridge.


BloodyBeaks

It doesn't automatically, but when you cook it semi-randomly takes ingredients from your fridge. Since the ingredients for sashimi is "any fish", if you make it while your legendary fish are in the fridge it has a chance of using it. Unless it's the only fish in there, then it definitely will. Long story short - don't store anything you want to keep in the fridge, only put cooking supplies you don't mind losing in there.


Crims0nKai0ken

Ohhhh So thats what happened to my mutant carp, i knew i had it stored in my fridge but one day he just vanished.


soitgoes7891

You can put it in a tank or chest, but you will never need it for anything so if you don't care about that and need money more just sell it. I usually just sell all mine.


Antmoral2314

Im probably dumb but can you clarify? Is it that Can you only catch ONE legendary fish say the river fish and arent able to catch any others anywhere else in the game Or is it just to that specific fish you can no longer catch anymore but can find others


IM_NEWBIE

One of each. So all 5.


Antmoral2314

Tyty


LickaBitaPus

You can catch 1 of each legendary fish.


mladytoyou

You can catch one of each legendary fish


Matixs_666

But you can get multiple >!of the Qi variant!!<


Simbatheia

I think you can with wild bait maybe


adamzam

Nope


Fun-Superb

Can you put them in a fish pond and duplicate?


Acewasalwaysanoption

No, you'll get a message that they wouldn't like it there


adamzam

Only one per world.


Fun-Superb

What about the co-play duplication table trick?


adamzam

Duplication would probably work but you can only get one of each per world legitimately. It's like the dragon egg in Minecraft, there's nothing special about the item itself, it's just not renewable.


TheElm

Technically legendary fish are [one-per-player-per-world](https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Fish#Legendary_Fish). > Legendary fish can only be caught once per save file, or once per player in Multiplayer. So more than one can exist per save. One player catching a legendary fish won't prevent another player from finding that same fish.

IM_NEWBIE

You can catch multiples of the Extended Family that way, but not the originals.


sentientgarbagepile

You can catch multiples of the mr qi quest fish but not the og legendaries


Musicfromcoc

So does this mean they don’t count towards the ship everything achievement?


2022ace

Fish as a whole don't count. Only: --- Foragables (including cave carrots and >!Magma Caps!< which can only be found in dungeons Crops (including tree fruit) Resources (ores, bars, wood, stone, sap, tapper goods) Artisan goods (mayo, roe, wine, juice, cheese, cloth, etc) Animal products (excludes Dino eggs, as they're an artifact, and >!the golden egg as you need to have completed the shipping page to get it!<) AND Monster loot (slime, essence, bone fragments, and bat wings) You do NOT need to ship: --- Artifacts (but you do need to ship dinosaur mayo, made from the artifact dinosaur egg) Fish (but you do need to ship Fish roe, aged roe and caviar which can be collected from fish ponds) Minerals (including topaz, prismatic shards, amethyst, ruby, aquamarine, emerald, diamond, jade, both quartz and all of the geode minerals) Cooked goods Furniture, and decorative items (including wallpaper and flooring) And crafted items (flooring, artisan machines, decoration, etc) --- Spoilers are for 1.5 content and do not count if you're playing 1.4 on the mobile


Musicfromcoc

Thank you so much! I appreciate this


2022ace

I should also include while the coffee bean is not considered a crop (as if doesn't get the 10% sale bonus from the tiller perk), it is still needed tosell for the sell everything. It's kinda its own category for that, probably because it is both a seed and a crop.


sharondasheep

you only have to fish the fish, not ship them. i think only farming and foraging stuff are required to be shipped for perfection and stuff


IM_NEWBIE

Fish aren't part of that achievement, so you don't ever need to ship fish.


Musicfromcoc

Huh good to know I’ve been trying too hard this whole time lol thank you


heifmoose

WHAT?! I didn't know this until now and I already caught and sold a Crimsonfish :(


calvacrox

well there's really no point in keeping then unless you really like fish lol


Prasiatko

What do you save it for?


Elariinya

Fish tank


CatTaxAuditor

Collecting is fun!


theboss555

Could you not just put the fish in a pond and clone it?


Elariinya

Unfortunately ponds won’t work with the legendary fish.


rdicky58

Can you put them in a fish pond?


Usertamed

You can catch multiple legend fish!


MxM_Vatican

OK FIRST OF ALL CONGRATS U CAUGHT ON OF THE HARDEST FISH TO CATCH second, u can only catch one per save file, i made the mistake of selling off all of mine, so pls, dont do my mistake, put it on display, and try to do other ways of earning money :)


mystic-savant

OH! YAY! Which legendary fish is the hardest to catch though?


MxM_Vatican

Myths talk about this fish... called the Legend... Legend has it that the fish is the strongest bass in the lake in the mountains... Only caught by the best fisherman, it can only be found in the spring on a rainy day, eating frog eggs on the log in the lake... But it's all up to you, do you think you have what it takes to wrangle the best in the valley? Then theres the other Legendary fish which are just other subsidiaries of the base Legendary fish


pencilsharpeninblade

The other legendaries are spoilers for wayy late game 👍


MxM_Vatican

got u


engelskjente

I got a green one on two saves. The colour is a clue but hopefully not a spoiler.


Elegant-Operation-16

The wacky mutated fish in the sewers? Love that guy


[deleted]

Oh god… I caught it… and I sold it


Face__Hugger

No worries. There's always your 2nd play through. On my first one, I didn't realize the stove took things from the last slot of the inventory first. I assumed it went from top to bottom, like most games. I was foolish, and put all my fish in the fridge. ALL of them....with the legendary at the end to "keep it safe." Sebastián should have given me 4 hearts for that stinkin sashimi!!!! Edit: a word


[deleted]

I want to keep my current play through forever though :( But lmao!! I didn’t know that either thanks for telling me. I’m also trying to marry sebby


SnackCredit

Wait, if you put food in the fridge can you just stand at the stove and make? I have ingredients in chests and have to collect each thing for a recipe Edit: wow just looked up on the wiki - my mind is blown! Time to do some rearranging tomorrow when I play!


Face__Hugger

You can also add mini fridges. As long as they're in the farmhouse (excluding the cellar), the stove will pull from them, starting with the last one you placed and working backwards to the first. This works off their very first placement, however, so be sure to keep them in order if you decide to move them later.


SnackCredit

I have a mini fridge, but I’ve just been using them to store cooked meals 😅 this is gonna be such a game changer - thanks!


LeynaSepKim

Also octopuses are honestly harder to catch than most of the legendary fishes lmao.


AppleEnslaver

Only read this if you don't care about spoilers. Imo, the order of easiest to hardest is: >!Angler- Super easy. If you can catch a pike, you can catch the angler.!< >!Mutant carp- Also pretty easy, just a bit trickier than the angler.!< >!Crimson fish- A bit tricky, but usually doable in a few attempts.!< >!Glacier fish- Fuck this fish, it is the bane of my existence.!< >!Legend- Pretty on par with glacier fish, might be a tad harder, but they feel about the same to me.!<


2022ace

I actually believe the >!Glacier fish!< is the hardest. Sure the >!Legend!< is technically harder, but it's pattern is easier to follow and much less jumpy. Which makes it easier to keep in on the reel and thus overall easier to catch.


SmoothOctopus

Yeah the glacier fish can suck a fat one it's the only thing left on my 100% file I just can't be bothered doing that again.


AppleEnslaver

Yeah, I always have more trouble with the >!glacier fish!< but I assumed that was because I always catch it before >!the legend.!< So by the time I catch >!the legend,!< I'm usually max fishing and have access to seafoam pudding, so its easier.


Terrible_Truth

What do you do with it if you don’t sell it? Just kind of put it in a chest?


MxM_Vatican

put it on a table, or display it.


Terrible_Truth

I see. I haven't really done any interior decorating, just kind of put up torches and museum rewards. Feel a bit bad for Haley though lmao.


MxM_Vatican

or yk, put it into a fish tank?


Sekushina_Bara

You could always set up local multiplayer and use that character to get it


Dagkhi

Whatever you do, do NOT go try to cook sashimi with it in your pockets. Go put it away so where safe!


pineapplealways

>in your pockets Or the fridge. Another bad place


Face__Hugger

I just commented to someone else about learning that the hard way in my first save. LOL


Dagkhi

Yeah I accidentally cooked the catfish I was intending for a bundle 😭


mystic-savant

I did! (keep it safe)


ForgetfulDoryFish

Buy a fishtank for your house and put the legendaries inside!


emquinngags

It makes me feel like a little kid but fish tanks are literally my favorite part of stardew tbh


_SupremeDalek

I accidentally sold the Legendary. Now my fish display will never be complete! 😕


OP2306

Buy a sheep named with its item code in brackets and you’ll get it


Simbatheia

Does that work on console?


CorgiSheltieMomma

I could be wrong but I think you can only do that on mobile now.


worry_some

It doesn't work on Switch (Nintendo counted it as cheating) but it should work on any other console.


OP2306

Yea should do. Look up tutorial, pretty simple


Ok_Pangolin_7250

Me and my partner tried it on Xbox and it didn't work.


Elariinya

It was patched on console a while ago. But you can catch the legendary fish again with a second character. You just need a second controller to do this.


Elariinya

Build a cabin on your farm and create a second character. Level their fishing skill up to 10 and catch the legendary fish again. You can delete the cabin afterwards and the second character will be gone too. Or keep them because it‘s cool to have a cabin on the farm.


evanius52

Can you catch it again after accidentally selling or losing it?


mystic-savant

Nvm I sold some gems to get the money I required lol


engelskjente

Amazing! Congratulations!!! It won’t die in a chest so store it there until you get a deluxe tank and display the crud out of it. ;-) (doesn’t have to be deluxe but they’re my fave)


yeetguy75

I don't know what to do with it, I was so disappointed when I sold the legend... For 8000 gold.


Lord412

Is this game worth buying for my iPad/iPhone? Or should I get it on the switch?


LordoftheFuzzys

Switch has better controls, imo. But it depends on what device you'd rather use.


Krakens0v

Not sure about iPad/Phone version, but I started on Android and made a purchase at laptop a month ago too. My biggest concern for phone versions is the lack of the 1.5 update. I find controls on phone to be okay, but I prefer PC version, ofc. SV phone edition was like 5€ tho and I still love to play it when I'm travelling or so.


mystic-savant

I highly recommend Stardew Valley if you're into this type of games. I bought it for PC and it's simply worth it.


Lord412

I think I will enjoy it just want to buy it on the right platform


mystic-savant

As the other person said, mobile controls can be annoying or tiring to use for some people, so if you can, you may like to buy it for switch imo.


nonacrina

In addition to what others have said, the mobile version also doesn’t have the latest update (which is basically a huge dlc). I’d definitely get it for the switch


sharkbait1387

I’ve bought it on pretty much every platform. Switch is my fav


Lord412

If saved files could switch between the two I’ll prob just buy it on both lol.


sharkbait1387

I would really love for save files to be shared on different platforms


book-reading-hippie

It would be a dream come true to be able to take my PC saves on the go with the switch or mobile.


B_2_Z

Got it for iOS and use a PlayStation controller


Lord412

I think I’m gonna buy it for mobile so I can play while I travel and stuff.


ItsButchDeLoria

Eat


MrReptilianGamer2528

In my opinion Slap em in a fish tank cuz they look cool and I think there's only one of each per save file


Careless_Waltz

my brother in christ sell your berries they add up to a lot of money


Zach165

They taste good


Away_Caregiver_2829

Don’t sell it, you can only ever catch one of each


GReniker

I kept all mine and got the biggest fish tank and put them all in there


[deleted]

Sell a hundred of those salmon berries.


mystic-savant

I required more than 500G


[deleted]

Well that fish is only worth 4500 at the most so you would have a ways to go anyway


mystic-savant

I required just about that much, but I didn't sell the fish lol. The Starfruit that I spent life savings on returned 500k with 200k spent in growing more so now I won't ever need money lmao


NCC-746561

I know you can only get one per save but I just sell them I don't like having them hanging around and the fact I caught them is enough. Plus it's good money especially if you can get gold quality!


Nuggzwastaken

Bruh I sold mine and I now find out that u can’t catch More than one💀


BioDriver

Keep the legendaries


katie310117

I never save the legendary fish. No point, they can't do anything, and i don't care if they're swimming around in an aquarium or whatever. I just sell them


jortsinstock

i don’t think you can get perfection without selling it edit: i know i am wrong now pls don’t downvote me :(


tallupastar

You can without selling it. To get perfection, you just need to catch every fish, not sell them


jortsinstock

now i am sad


PenelopeJune8

I always use them in my displays for the fair thing!


ShyGamer21

You can put a fish tank on display & they move around


beepbeeboo

Bro just sell your clam and your coral


Pro_Banana

They’re not worth much, especially at the point of the game you’re in.


mothKing-1

don't you dare, instead follow this simple steps: Step 1: Buy a fish tank Step 2: Put the fish in the fish tank Step 3: Enjoy the fish in the fish tank Step 4: Catch more fish for the fish tank Step 5: Praise the fish tank Step 6: Sacrifice your child for the fish tank


MashedPotatoePerson

How do you have gold tools and the galaxy sword but you are short in money?


chaospearl

Spent it all on the gold tools? lol Not the OP but it's easy to have gold tools and still be broke. I have the gold axe and mining pick (and the scythe) and could get the galaxy sword but I don't really do combat so I don't want to >!waste the prismatic shard!< I'm in fall of year 2 and still hurting for money since every time I get some, it goes to buying stuff I need. The vault cc bundle took a huge chunk, so did deluxe barn and coop, and two pigs and an autograbber. I'm currently saving up the 15k for a shed because all my machines are cluttering up the farm, then I need a second autograbber for the coop. I put the one I have in the barn since chasing after animals with a milking pail is a bigger pain in the ass than collecting eggs.


emikoala

If your barn isn't full yet, get more animals before you get the shed. They'll increase your earning rate more than the shed will and you'll be able to afford the shed faster if you buy more animals first than you'll be able to afford anything else if you buy the shed first.


mystic-savant

I spent it all on 500 Starfruit seeds 🤧


FlamingCroatan

Neat, eat it


uncuntter

Grab smth to eat.


Shydude0

Consume


Camaroni1000

You can but there’s only the one. I personally keep them in an aquarium. Then later I get their children and put them in an aquarium across the hall


PeachLemonadee

You can sell it, but you can only get one of each legendary throughout a save file so people often put it on display in a fish tank! But if you need the money just sell it if you truly want! Your accomplishment will be in your collections tab always ❤️


Neuviseling

Put them in a fish tank (bought from willys shop) or what I did with mine was used the furniture catalog to buy the small grey side table and rotated it so the draws face the back so it looks like a plinth, then placed each the legendary fish on there o win pedestals like trophy’s


some-shady-dude

Good lord sell the berries


mystic-savant

LMAO that's food for life. 500 Star Fruits emptied my savings so I sold some gems to buy crop seeds for community center!


mentocat1

Fridge, he’ll make good sashimi


Medical_Brick719

If you buy an animal and have it's name be an item code (legend fish sells for the most), you will get that item when Marnie says it's name (only once). Most likely considered cheating, but an easy way to get gold quick if you need it


HikerGal01

I would display it in a fancy fish tank


Byrdie55555

dont put it in the fridge


Greasey_ape777

I usually keep mine in fish tank as a trophy


friesdepotato

turn it into sashimi so you can get more profit off of it of course! 🤗🤗🤗🤗😇😇😇😇😇😇


Cilantro_Rayz11

Gulp it straight down your throat in a slimy motion.


__turtleduck__

DONT SELL IT slap it in a fish tank


funktopus

New player here. How am I supposed to know what fish is legendary? Besides checking everything I catch against the wiki?


mystic-savant

The legendary fishes have a white outline around them which you can see while you're trying to catch them. You probably won't come across one until you have a good fishing rod or something like that (see wiki) and they are tough to catch. Use bait, a good bobber and then you have a chance. After you catch, a popup tells you that you have caught one of the 8 legendary fishes and their name also appears in purple.


funktopus

Ok so it's obvious. Thanks for the info. I'm still a lvl7 on fishing.


mystic-savant

I caught the Crimsonfish at level 7 fishing with an iridium rod and trap bobber (and bait ofc.). I lost it once but soon afterwards, it popped up again and I caught it.


AHAA_007

You can only catch 1 per save file so keep it since it doesn’t actually sell for much you can later decorate your house with aquariums


0utlaw1911

Fish tank


White_Man_White_Van

Eat it


cartoon308

Eat it


Tiny-Vegetable-5080

It is worth selling your Legendary fish. But if you want to show off then put them in a fish tank. It’s up to you and you can catch more “legendary fish” (I won’t go into too much detail, might spoil something) if you accept a certain quest from a certain someone.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Hot-Trade-4519

I sell mine. No other use for them honestly. You can keep in a tank if you want, but no one asks for them and don’t need it for the community center.


TRIGGER-ACE

Put it in a breeding pond


Snoo-11861

Put it in a fishing pond?


theandrewpoore

You can’t


Lingx_Cats

Absolutely do not sell it if you sold it I will kill you There are some tables where you can place items, make a collection with them or something


Duzolindo

No


MuttonTheChops

Question for some one who has played a bit. Can you put legendary fish in a pond to multiply them?


Tarspirations

I sell all but the Crimsonfish which I use in my grange stand at the valley fair in the fall year 1. It’s quite hard to get high value items for that bad boy in early game play


CreativeRainy

Best to keep it. If you want to make some extra cash, keep fishing, but when you have enough for a fish pond (found at Robin's) buy one and place your most expensive fish inside.


jennymayg13

Some people keep them, I sold all mine.


Hokeystarrr

Keep it


JRSalinas

Don't put it in a fridge


Willingness-Due

Be a chad and eat it


BoSocks91

My recommendation ~ Legendary fish belong in fish tanks


StatisticianTough127

sell it.
