Ride A Fish Collection Index: Fish & Egg Tabs, Cards and Progress

In Ride A Fish, the Index is your personal discovery log: a two-tab window that records the fish and egg names your account has revealed so far. It opens from a green button on the left of the PC screen, and every entry appears either as a named card or as a dark silhouette your account has not revealed yet. Progress figures inside the window — the recorded account showed 2/5 on one reward bar — describe that player's own reveals, not the size of the game's entire collection.

Open the collection Index

1. Open the green Index button on the left of the PC screen.
2. Switch between the two tabs inside the Index window — one for fish, one for eggs — to reach the section you need.
3. Use the entries to identify a name you actually see, then confirm it through your own game state: a hatched fish in your aquarium, or a collected egg in your basket.

The recorded route comes from PC play; no touch or mobile mapping for opening the Index appears in the evidence. Treat the window as an identification and progress tool — it is not an inventory of what you own.

Fish tab versus Egg tab

The fish tab is a scrollable grid of fish cards. In the recorded frame, only Milkfish and Mackerel were revealed and the remaining cards appeared as silhouettes. The egg tab holds egg cards; its first readable row begins with Common Egg, Coral Egg, Coral Reef Egg and Tidal Egg, and further rows continue below.

The English names above translate the recorded Indonesian interface; they are not an official English localization. Because you can scroll to more cards, this is a confirmed visible subset rather than a complete catalog. For identifying a known discovered entry, the fish list and egg list reference pages carry the fuller recorded catalogs.

Read hidden and revealed cards

Each card state tells you about the account that opened the Index — not about the server, and not about your inventory:

• Dark silhouette — that account had not revealed the card yet. It does not prove the item is unavailable on your server.
• Revealed card — that account has discovered the entry and its name is shown. This is identification only: a fish card does not prove you own that fish, and a card is not an actively carried egg.

To verify the things an Index card does not prove, use the screens that actually track possession:

• A fish you own: your aquarium, inventory and hotbar states.
• An egg you are carrying: the basket's item label and its transport warning.
• A hatch: the Egg Box "Ready to Hatch" state and the fish result card.

The beginner guide plus the egg-hunting and hatching guides cover those separate stages in detail.

Recorded gameplay shows the payoff of reading the window this way. While an egg was mid-hatch, the player opened the Index and matched the Milkfish entry to the fish they were riding — it turned out the fish they had been riding was a milkfish. Later in the session they opened the Index again and found the Clownfish entry already revealed, matching a fish they had already pulled from an egg.

One more reading rule: fish cards display "1 in" numbers and egg cards display green luck labels. The footage does not define their sample space, version, conditions or relationship to an actual hatch, so treat both as in-game labels, not published drop probabilities.

Track your personal progress

The recorded fish tab showed 2/5 on one visible reward bar. That figure is one account's Index state at that moment — not a full species count and not a universal completion total. No source establishes the total number of fish or egg entries, and more cards sit beyond any single frame's scroll, so treat every figure in the window as personal progress.

Practically, that means: open the Index to see which names you have revealed and which silhouettes remain, then use the basket, aquarium and result cards — not the Index — to confirm what you actually own. Entries line up with your own discoveries; the recorded player's Clownfish card was revealed only after that fish was already in hand.
