Cardinal Tetra guide

Lost Jungle is where Cardinal Tetra lives, and it is as easy a catch as the Common tag suggests. Fish it on a Clear summer day with Earthworm as bait. A tiny fish with a full crimson belly, it averages 2 kg and can reach 6.3 kg.

At C$17 per kg, the average sale is C$34. That ranks 685th of the 742 documented fish, near the bottom of the table, and the maximum weight is 513th of 663. The base XP is 30. There is nothing here to chase for profit.

Neon Tetra is the other Common fish in Lost Jungle, so the two are neighbors at the bottom of the zone. The area sells Azure Of Lagoon and Tranquility Rod, which gives new visitors somewhere to start.

Where it earns its keep is as a stepping stone. A newcomer in Lost Jungle with Earthworm will land Cardinal Tetra often enough to learn how the zone works, and the low price means there is no regret in selling every one. When you are ready for better returns, look at the rarer fish listed for the same jungle and leave this one for the collection.
