Steal A Fish · checked 2026-10-25

Steal A Fish Tier List

A priority ranking of the actions the official description names: collection Money, rare steals, tunnel buys, house defense, and looking at a stash. This is not a fish-income chart. No species has a cash-per-second number on this site.

Ranking criteria

Rows are the loop steps from the Roblox games API description checked for the hub on 25 October 2026 (place 72212564918217, MY FISH FRIEND). A row is not ordered by DPS, community vote, or coins per second. Those figures are not published here. S means the description makes that action the way Money or the leaderboard is produced. A means the description makes it a required input or a required defense, but not the scoring action. B means it is the look-before-you-steal step and does not itself pay or score.

What each tier letter means on this page
Tier	What the letter means here
S	The developer text ties this action directly to Money or to the leaderboard. Skipping it skips the goal the description names.
A	The description requires this action so the S-tier actions can happen, or so other players cannot erase them. It is not itself the Money printer or the leaderboard sentence.
B	Named in the round, but it only sets up a steal. It does not generate Money and it does not climb the leaderboard by itself.

Individual fish stay unranked. The hub does not repeat pad income, shields, or rebirth recipes until a second public source is checked, and this tier list does not invent those numbers to fill a table. 'Rare' is the developer's word. It is not a measured rarity grade.

Tier S

Produces Money or the leaderboard result the description names.

Collection that generates Money

“Add them to your collection to generate Money”

This is the only Money source the official text names. Buying a fish does not match that sentence until the fish is in the collection. Later buys and a house worth defending both assume the collection is already generating Money.

Treat the collection as the base you play from, not as a trophy shelf. The description does not say the collection is safe while you are gone. Defense is a separate row because other players are instructed to steal.

Basis: Money sentence in the developer description
Price on this site: No pad price, income rate, or layout is published on this site · Money, named but not quantified
How to do it: Buy a fish from the tunnel, then add it to your collection before you leave the plot.

Why it ranks here

It is the Money sentence, so it outranks purchases that never get placed.
An empty plot has nothing for the rest of the loop to scale.

What this rank does not claim

No cash-per-second, pad count, or offline cap is confirmed here.
A collection is also what other players are told to steal.

First session
Income while you visit another base

Steal rare fish for the leaderboard

“Steal rare fish and climb the leaderboard”

The description pairs rare steals with the leaderboard, so this is the competitive action rather than a side activity. It is S for the same reason the collection is S: the official text names it as a result, not as flavor.

Steal after you already have a collection earning Money, and only when you can get the fish back to a house you can defend. The description does not promise the steal succeeds.

Basis: Leaderboard sentence in the developer description
Price on this site: No steal fee or carry limit is published on this site · Not listed
How to do it: Visit another player's stash in your server, then take a fish the round is treating as rare and return it to your house.

Why it ranks here

It is the only leaderboard path the description names.
It uses the same rare fish other players are collecting.

What this rank does not claim

Rare is not defined with a number, a color, or a mutation.
The defense sentence implies the owner can answer the steal. No success rate is published.

Leaderboard climb
After the collection is earning

Tier A

Required setup or required defense. Not the scoring sentence.

Buy fish from the tunnel

“Buy fish that appear through the tunnel”

The tunnel is how fish enter your game. Ranked under the collection because a purchase that stays in your pocket does not generate the Money the description talks about. Ranked above scouting because you cannot fill a collection without it.

Restock when the collection is already placed. Do not wait on this page for a named secret fish. None is listed.

Basis: Required input, not the Money sentence
Price on this site: No tunnel price list is published on this site · Money, amount not listed
How to do it: Stand at the tunnel, buy a fish that appears, and place it in the collection.

Why it ranks here

It is the only source of fish the description names besides steals.
You can do it in your own base before you learn other players' layouts.

What this rank does not claim

No spawn timer, species order, or best first buy is confirmed.
Spending Money you have not started earning yet is not supported by a price guide here.

Restocking the collection

Defend your house

“Defend your house from other players”

Defense is A, not S, because the description lists it as protection of the loop rather than as the thing that generates Money or the leaderboard score. It is still mandatory. An undefended collection is the target the steal sentence points at.

Plan the trip around getting home. This page will not tell you a shield duration or a lock button. Those were withheld on the hub until a second public source is checked.

Basis: Required defense, not a scoring action
Price on this site: No shield, lock, or trap recipe is published on this site · Not listed
How to do it: Stay able to answer a player who enters your house. The control is not documented on this site.

Why it ranks here

The description names defense as part of every round, not as an optional mode.
It is what makes a rare steal stick once you are the owner.

What this rank does not claim

No base equipment is confirmed, so this row cannot name a best defense item.
It does not climb the leaderboard by itself.

Keeping a collection
After you start stealing

Tier B

Scouting. Useful only because it leads to a steal.

Visit other players' stashes

“Visit other players to see their fish stash”

Looking is how you choose a steal. It is B because the visit itself does not generate Money and does not move the leaderboard. Skipping it means stealing blind, which the description does not recommend: it names the visit before the steal.

In a server of 8, the sample of bases is the current server only. Walk the bases, then decide. Do not treat a visit as progress if you leave empty-handed and your own collection is still empty.

Basis: Scouting step before a steal
Price on this site: No travel cost is published on this site · Not listed
How to do it: Enter another player's base in the same server and look at the stash before you take a fish.

Why it ranks here

It is the step the description places immediately before the steal.
It costs no confirmed resource.

What this rank does not claim

A visit with no steal does not match the leaderboard sentence.
This page does not describe a server browser beyond the 8-player server you are in.

Learning who is worth raiding in this server

Order of play

Early. Buy one fish from the tunnel and put it in the collection before you walk to another base. The Money sentence does not start until the fish is placed.
Mid. In the same server of up to 8 players, visit a stash, then steal only if you can carry the fish back to a house you can still defend.
Late. Keep the collection generating Money while you answer steals on your own house. This page still has no shield timer.
Endgame on this page. The leaderboard path the description names is rare steals. There is no cash-per-second target, because no income table is published here.

Place a tunnel fish in the collection.
Confirm Money is the thing that collection generates, not a number this site invented.
Scout one other stash in the server.
Steal a fish the round treats as rare, then defend your house.

What you are doing in one 8-player server

Role	What to do with it
Your plot	A collection that is already generating Money
The tunnel	The only buy source the description names
Another base	Look at the stash, then steal a rare fish if you can get home
Defense	Answer the same steal when it is aimed at your house

Codes are not a tier

Codes are not ranked. On 25 October 2026 the codes page has zero ACTIVE_VERIFIED rows. ADMINFISH stays UNVERIFIED because UrGameTips, PrimesDaily, and GameRant do not agree on the reward, and the official description lists no code. Do not move a code above the collection or a rare steal. The codes page was not edited for this ranking.

Left unranked on purpose

Named fish, mutations, cash per second, rebirth counts, pads, and shields.
Any code, including ADMINFISH and the omitted names PRETTYCLOVER, ROGISBACK, 4LEAFCLOVER, CUTELILFROG, TICKETS!!, and CUTELILROG.
Fish It rods and Steal a Brainrot characters. Those are different games with their own tier lists.

Questions

Why isn't this a list of fish?

The hub does not store a fish index or income rates. Ranking invented species would break the rule that rows need a basis in the developer description. The ranked objects are the actions that description names.

What does S tier mean if there are no stats?

S means the official text ties that action to Money or to the leaderboard. The collection generates Money. Rare steals climb the leaderboard. Neither row has a numeric stat on this site, and the page says so.

Should I steal before I own a collection?

No. Put a purchased fish in the collection first. Stealing is S tier as the leaderboard action, but the early order on this page still starts with Money generation so the base is doing something while you are out.

Where do codes sit in this ranking?

They do not. No Steal A Fish code is ACTIVE_VERIFIED on the 25 October 2026 codes page. An unverified code is not a substitute for the collection or a rare steal.
