Every fish gets a pixel-art entry in the Fishpedia, sorted by rarity and by the zone it lives in. Common fish fill the log quickly and the rare tiers take a long time. You can fuse duplicates into hybrids, show off your best catches in an aquarium you decorate yourself, and push the completion percentage up a decimal at a time. Buy boats, send them out on expeditions and let the fish in your tank earn for you.

Offline earnings are there from your first boat, and you never pay extra for them.
