Fish are a part of farming in Farm Together 2. You place them on fish pond tiles, wait for them to grow, and then collect the coins, experience and fish resources they produce. Fish come in Small, Medium and Big sizes, and more of them open up as your Farm Level rises.

How Fish Ponds Work
Fish are kept in fish ponds, and each pond is made of tiles. Every tile costs coins, and the fish on it grows until it's ready. When it's ready, one click harvests the whole pond, and each tile pays out its coins and experience along with one fish resource.
How Long Fish Take to Grow
Each fish takes its own amount of time to grow, measured in seasons. The quickest fish are ready in 2 seasons, about 34 minutes, while Pacific Hake takes 28 seasons, or nearly eight hours. Fish that come in the same line, like the Sardine varieties, don't always share a speed. The first Sardine takes 4 seasons, but White Sardine is ready in just 2.
Why Bigger Fish Ponds Pay Less Per Tile
Once a fish pond grows past 36 tiles, the money it pays out starts to shrink. Up to 36 tiles you get the full amount. At 40 tiles you still get about 98 percent of the full money, at 100 tiles about 78 percent, and at 1,000 tiles about 52 percent.
This is there for balance, because a single click harvests the whole pond. Without it, a very large pond would pay out a huge amount from one click. Fish resources and experience are never reduced, though, so you get all of them even from the biggest pond. If you want full money on every tile, keep each pond at 36 tiles or fewer.
Small, Medium and Big Fish
Every fish belongs to a size group, Small, Medium or Big, and that group decides which fish resource you get at harvest. Every fish in the same line shares a size, so a whole line always gives the same kind of resource.
Small Fish come from the Clownfish, Surgeonfish, Sardine, Piranha and Axolotl lines. Medium Fish come from Salmon, Trout, Blowfish, Seabream, Hake and Anglerfish, while Big Fish come from Swordfish, Snapper and Koi.
How to Unlock Fish and Raise Their Levels
Each line starts with a first fish, which opens at a set Farm Level. The varieties that come after it also need the earlier fish in their line to reach set levels before they open. Amber Clownfish, for example, opens at Farm Level 7 and needs Clownfish at level 5 first.
Fish also have their own level, a bit like crops and trees. A higher level raises the money a fish pays at each harvest, while its experience and fish resource stay the same. So the level matters most when you're chasing coins.
Which Fish Are Worth Getting First
If you're just starting out, the first Clownfish is the sensible choice. It's the cheapest fish in the game and opens at Farm Level 1, which makes it the easiest place to start. It pays the least per tile of any fish before any level boosts, so think of it as a way to learn the pond routine rather than a big earner.
For the biggest single payout, look at the slower and pricier fish. Triplewart Seadevil pays the most per tile of any fish before any level boosts, but it takes 24 seasons to grow and is one of the most expensive fish to stock. Tancho Koi and Atlantic Footballfish come next, and they also take a long time to be ready.
If you judge by how much a tile pays for each season it spends growing, the Piranha and Axolotl lines stand out. San Francisco Piranha tops that measure. It pays a lot for a fish that's ready in just 2 seasons, but it doesn't open until Farm Level 235 and is pricey to stock.
Using Farmhands to Harvest Fish
Farmhands can take care of fish too. In their settings, the fish option lets you choose Harvest or Do Nothing, which decides whether they collect fish in their work area. Width and depth set how large that area is.
Farmhands can harvest all of the fish in their work area as long as at least one fish tile is inside it. To open the farmhand settings, select the farmhand stall and, on Xbox, press Y.
FAQ
Why doesn't the grow time in the shop match when my fish is ready?
The shop shows an estimated clock time for each fish. That estimate doesn't count any progress already made in the current season, so treat it as a rough guide rather than an exact countdown.
Are the Anglerfish, Axolotl and Piranha lines newer than the others?
Yes. They arrived in Update #27, after the rest of the fish were already in the game.
Do Big Fish take longer to grow than Small Fish?
Yes. Every Big Fish takes longer to be ready than any Small Fish. Small Fish take 2 to 6 seasons and Big Fish take 12 to 22, while Medium Fish have the widest spread, from 5 seasons up to the longest in the game.
