Defined inarmoured_catfish.json

An armoured catfish is a rare ⭐⭐⭐☆ fish caught by fishing in tropical freshwater. It cooks into cooked large fish, and a Fisherman buys 4 of them for an Obol.

Obtaining

Fishing

The armoured catfish can be caught in this table.[1] The chances are per cast of a fishing rod and include the junk and treasure rolls.

Climate Biomes Weight Per catch (open water) Per catch (other water) Per catch (Luck of the Sea III)
Tropical freshwater Jungle, Sparse Jungle, Bamboo Jungle 3 of 42 6.07% 6.39% 6.29%

The same tables are also rolled by the drops of guardians and elder guardians, using the biome where the mob dies.

Chance is the probability that a single chest, mob or catch yields at least one, assuming no Looting, Luck or Fortune.

Usage

Food

Raw fish can be eaten, but it heals nothing: Matcha Flavoured removes hunger, and food only heals through the hearts shown on its tooltip. Cooked, it becomes cooked large fish, which heals 5 ( × 2.5).

The recipes match any minecraft:salmon, so every large fish gives the same result.[2] A Mud Kiln burns it into charred fish instead.

Crafting ingredient

Because it is a salmon underneath, it can be used wherever a raw salmon is accepted: the green curry stock recipe takes any cod or salmon.[3]

Trading

The Fisherman buys 4 caught armoured catfish for 1 Obol once he reaches Expert level. Only fish with the ⭐⭐⭐☆ rarity line, which the fishing loot tables add, are accepted.[4]

Angler's Almanac

The Angler's Almanac has an entry for the armoured catfish under Tropical Freshwater (listed chance 7.1%), unlocked by catching one after the player has obtained the almanac.[5] Its description reads:

A whiskered bottom dweller wearing natural armor like it expects a boss fight at any moment.

Advancements

  • No More Fish in the Sea – catch every fish, including this one. Rewards 10 Obols.
  • Fishmonger – sell caught fish to a Fisherman.

History

0.5-alpha Fishing overhauled into climates with star-rated fish.
1.10 The Fisherman now buys 4 instead of 8.

Now actually caught in tropical freshwater; the arid freshwater table used to override it.

1.12.1-alpha Added an Angler's Almanac entry and a catch sound.

The item format changed; fish caught before this version can no longer be sold.

Trivia

  • The fish is a minecraft:salmon item with the name, texture (matcha:armoured_catfish) and rarity line set by its loot table.[6]
  • The name keeps the British spelling "Armoured" used in the pack's language file.
