What Makes Radiant Sunfish so Valuable?

Radiant Sunfish have all kinds of uses, even outside the ones that you make for yourself, like displaying or collecting them. For one thing, Jina seems to really like them, so much so that they’re a potential weekly want that you can give to them. If you’re trying to romance a particularly lanky robot instead of Jina, you can also use the Radiant Sunfish to show Einar just how radiant they are in your eyes.

But if fish are just food for you, that works too. Besides being a rare, relatively valuable gift item or house pet, the Radiant Sunfish also mixes delish to create all of the following recipes below:

• Grilled Fish
• Fish Stew
• Sushi
• Sashimi

Another great use for the Radiant Sunfish is for creating the Tuning Fork Fishing item. This special item helps locate all the fishing hubs on the map for a small amount of time. If you’re after achievements, catching one of these bad boys can help you lock in a fair number of them as well. As a rare fish, it can help you get the My First Rare Fish achievement, as well as many others.
