In our Fisch Animal Pool guide, we go over which fish you can catch in both the standard Animal Pools and during Octophant Hunts – including how to catch an Octophant!
Look out for limited-time pools in Fisch! Unlocked the Second Sea? Check out our Fish Second Sea Rods Tier List to see which ones we recommend getting.
Fisch Animal Pool
The Animal Pool event is available until April 19th!
What are Animal Pools?
Animal Pools feature fish that take inspiration from mammals! They work similarly to the limited-time Frightful Pools from last year’s Halloween event. There are actually 2 types of Animal Pools, which include the normal one and a special Octophant Hunt. As you can imagine, the latter is reminiscent of Shark Hunts and Megalodon Hunts.
Normal Animal Pools
These Animal Pools do not contain Octophants, but they offer up a ton of new limited-time fish! These pools spawn every 30 minutes and last a total of 5 minutes.

Octophant Hunts
There are various catches to obtain during an Octophant Hunt, including the Octophant itself! It’s like an octopus but looks like an elephant, with a trunk and tusks. Keep an eye on the in-game chat, as there are announcements when an Octophant Hunt spawns.
How to Catch an Octophant
You need to break the bubble that the Octophant is in to get the catch for yourself. You break the bubble by fishing and catching 25 fish – you do not need to do all 25 yourself, as the number counts for all participating players.
