Phoenix Barb - Petit Planet Creature

At a glance

How to catch Phoenix Barb

Use the Fishing Rod. The exact approach depends on the creature’s category and, for shore-dwellers, its species type.

1. Cast the Fishing Rod into the right water: rivers and lakes for freshwater fish, coastal waters for saltwater fish.
2. Wait for the nibbles, then strike when the line bites down.
3. Higher-quality saltwater fish need a slow reel-in. Keep the line from snapping instead of holding the button down.

Where and when to find it

The phoenix barb is most recognizable by the "blush" on its gill covers.

It's a sign of maturity. Before reaching full size, it looks almost identical to the grass carp, with no distinctive coloration on its body.

The market value of a phoenix barb is much higher than that of a grass carp's, though, so there's no need to worry about getting the wrong fish when buying grass carp.
