Blobfish Information

The Blobfish is a fish that can be caught in the submarine ride at the Night Market, which takes place at The Beach during Winter 15-17. It can also be caught by using Magic Bait in the southwest corner of the beach: From the left-most pier, in the southwestern corner, fish facing west.

In the submarine ride at the Night Market, there is a 10% chance to hook a Blobfish (20% if using a Curiosity Lure). If using Magic Bait in the southwest corner of the beach, there is a 3.3% chance to hook a Blobfish (10.2% if using a Curiosity Lure).

The Blobfish and the Pufferfish are the only fishing rod fishes that have a "floater" behavior in the fishing mini-game.

Blobfish Cheat Help

Item spawning in Stardew Valley isn't accomplished through typical commands. Instead, it involves a cheat method where you name your character, or an animal, with the item code of the desired item, enclosed in square brackets [ and ]. Include the brackets when naming.

Spawn Using Animal Name

To spawn this item, buy an animal (we recommend a chicken because it is the cheapest) from Marnie's Ranch, name it [800]. You will then receive the Blobfish item.

Spawn Using Character Name

Since you can only set your character's name once at the game's inception, we advise using the animal naming method.

However, if you opt for this method, name your character [800] while creating your save file. When you converse with any villager who mentions your name in their dialogue, like Gus at the Stardrop Saloon, you'll receive the Blobfish item.
