==Obtained==
Shield Fish can be found by Fishing anywhere. Some versions of it can only be caught in specific biomes, these are only cosmetic differences however. They also have a chance to drop in Coolers.
==Strategy Guide==
*Shield fish are better than Shield Potions aside from obtaining them and the amount of healing. This is because Shield Fish can be consumed in one second, and Shield Potions take 5. However, Shield Fish must be obtained by fishing and through coolers, making them awkward to locate, and only heal 40 shield instead of 50.
== Item ID ==
Shield Fish is referred to as Flopper Shield in the files.
