How to catch Tiger Prawn
Use the Shellfish Tongs. The exact approach depends on the creature’s category and, for shore-dwellers, its species type.
- Equip the Shellfish Tongs and search the intertidal zone along the beach.
- Approach shrimp slowly; unlike crabs, they are not found under beach flotsam.
First catch: the creature is added to the Omnidex. Offer it to Mors at the Omni-Gallery to put it on display and unlock its Omnipedia entry.
Where and when to find it
Habitat: Intertidal Zone. Distribution: All Regions.
Season: Year-Round. Time: All Day. Weather: Any Weather. If two of those tags are restrictive, check the creature tracker before you set out.

Intertidal Zone · Penaeus esculentus
Tiger prawns typically live in seagrass beds around 200 meters deep.
They are large and delicious, so merchants began aquaculture research early on, and accidentally discovered that they can be crossbred with the tiger shrimp.
Regrettably, tiger prawns are worth much more than tiger shrimps, and crossbred individuals, despite having tiger prawn genes, can only settle for tiger shrimp pricing.
