How to catch Red-Spotted Loach

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.

The scientific name of the Red-Spotted Loach generalizes its "beauty," which does little to make the fish marketable to the public. Thus, it was given a catchier trade name among aquarists — the "red diamond loach."

The good news is that, despite its fancy new title, its "cost of living" hasn't skyrocketed accordingly.
