🍳 Cook vs Sell Raw

🐟 Sell Raw

  • β€’ No cooking level needed
  • β€’ Instant gold, no extra steps
  • β€’ Rare fish (Rainbow Fish 5,000G) beat most cooked dishes
  • β€’ 5β˜… fish at high levels are very profitable raw

🍳 Cook First

  • β€’ Fish N Chips: 310–2,480G (5β˜…) from cheap fish
  • β€’ Seafood Risotto: 490–1,960G (4β˜…)
  • β€’ Cooking multiplies cheap fish value significantly
  • β€’ Budget fish (50–75G) become much more valuable cooked

πŸ’‘ Verdict: Sell rare fish raw (Rainbow Fish, Legendary Koi, Swordfish). Cook cheap fish (Sardine, Sea Bass) into Fish N Chips for much higher profit.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is the most expensive fish in Heartopia?

Rainbow Fish is the most expensive at 5,000 Gold (base price). Giant Oarfish and Nursehound can reach up to 4,280G at 5-star. For commonly farmable fish, Tilapia and Edible Frog reach 1,280G at 4-star.

How do star ratings affect fish prices?

Star ratings multiply the base price: 2β˜… = 1.5x, 3β˜… = 2x, 4β˜… = 4x, 5β˜… = 8x. You unlock 4-star fish at Fishing Level 4 and 5-star at Level 6.

Should I sell fish raw or cook them?

Cooking fish into dishes like Fish N Chips (2,480G at 5β˜…) is usually more profitable than selling raw. However, rare fish like Rainbow Fish (5,000G) are worth more sold raw than most cooked dishes.

What is the best fish to farm for gold?

For beginners (Level 1–3), Striped Red Mullet at 320–1,280G is the best. Mid-level players should target Tilapia or Edible Frog (320–1,280G with Mermaid Attractor). End-game players should hunt Giant Oarfish (535–4,280G) and Rainbow Fish (5,000G).

Where do I sell fish in Heartopia?

Sell fish to Albert Jr., the merchant NPC in Town Square. You can sell directly from your inventory. Some fish are also useful as cooking ingredients or NPC gifts.
