==Useful Info==<br />
'''Big fish''' are common aquatic pests which attack any player who ventures near or into their ponds. They are not terribly dangerous, especially since you can simply walk away from battle with them if you feel threatened; likewise, they'll retreat underwater when near-death. They can be found in any area where water exists, except for the first few floors of the [[Dungeon]].<br />
<br />
==Tips & Tricks==<br />
*A weapon of [[venom]] or other means of [[poison]]ing them lets you kill them even if they try to flee, though you'll likely lose the body in [[deep water]].<br />
*Try not to fight them while standing in the water yourself; this will reduce your combat performance for most playable [[species]]. Fight from the shore, and use corners to only fight one fish at a time.<br />
*If you plan to be traveling up and down the length of the dungeon a lot, consider leaving any big fish you see alive. They make handy snacks for when you've already killed and eaten everything else on a floor.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Big fish were removed in [[0.15]].<br />
