Donating to the museum[edit]
In Animal Crossing[edit]
After donating the stringfish, Blathers will make the following remarks:
"Hoo! Indeed, WOO hoo! This is an extremely rare fish, I'll have you know! I'm absolutely agog! If I may hazard a guess, this must have been the most difficult fish to catch yet! I almost can't believe it! To think, you're donating such a rare find to us... Allow me to commend you on your matchless generosity. We've been saving a place just for this day, wot wot! Have faith, this fish will be thoroughly treasured!"
In Wild World[edit]
Blathers will tell the player the following about the stringfish upon its donation to the museum:
"I've heard it said that this fish is actually very high in fat content... If such words are true, then whatever possessed someone to name it that? If you were to call a portly fellow "stringy", well... Madness would ensue!"
The stringfish can then be seen swimming about in the first freshwater tank.
In City Folk[edit]
After donating the stringfish, Blathers will impart his knowledge of the fish to the player dialogue.
"...Stringfish are hardy creatures that can live for up to 15 years with ease! These older fish grow to remarkable sizes actually... One fish even made it to a gargantuan 80 inches (2 meters)! At that size, perhaps we should call it the king of the river! No wonder it looks so serene, eh wot?"
The stringfish can be found in the middle-left tank in the aquarium.
In New Leaf[edit]
The following information will be displayed by its tank:
"Stringfish live in cold rivers, can grow to over a yard long, and are stout and bulky like logs. They live up to 20 years but grow so slowly that it takes them 15 years to reach full maturity. They are called "phantom fish" because there are so few of them. Adults are particularly hard to find."
The stringfish can be found in the larger of the two left-hand tanks in the freshwater fish room.
In New Horizons[edit]
When donating to Blathers or selecting "Tell me about this!" in New Horizons, he will provide the following information about the fish:
"The stringfish grows slowly, but also lives quite a long time for a fish, with up to 15 years being typical. Consequently, while it takes a while, they can get quite large-perhaps even up to six feet long! The stringfish is perhaps the best embodiment in the fish world of 'slow and steady wins the race.'"
The stringfish can be found in the second tier in the waterfall fish-tank with the sweetfish and crucian carp.
Fishing Tourney[edit]
In City Folk[edit]
Chip will not eat this fish as an entry for the Fishing Tourney. He will mention that it is too special to eat as it is. He will accept it as an entry and will measure it as usual.
In New Leaf[edit]
"For stringfish, saltin' and grillin' 'em works great. And you know, fried or meunière ain't bad options either. But it'd be a bad idea to munch this guy right here. I mean, it IS a phantom fish..."
