Shim Cheong’s Miraculous Fish Tank is a 50 slot bag that automatically stores freshly caught fish.

  • Even if you have tons of inventory you can always use more when it comes to AFK fishing!
  • With Shim Cheong’s Miraculous Fish Tank in your main inventory, the first 50 fish you catch are automatically placed there.

Keep the Value of Fish Longer:

  • The Miraculous Fish Tank prolongs the life of the fish up to 10 days!
  • This gives you more time to sell to traders or Imperial Fishing Delivery, or even use for Cooking.

Right click the fish tank in your inventory to open it. You can move fish to and from your main inventory.

Limitations of Cheong’s Miraculous Fish Tank

  • Stores fresh fish only (not dried).
  • Will not store fish without an expiration date (event fish).
  • Can’t sort or organize fish inside the fish tank.
  • Can only be transferred to storage or another character when empty of fish.
  • 1 Miraculous Fish Tank per Family.
  • Fish must be removed from the tank if you are handing it in for a quest.

When you hit the sell all button at a trader or imperial fish delivery, the fish being held inside the Miraculous Fish Tank are sold too.

TIP:
If there are certain fish in your fish tank that you do NOT want to sell, first remove it from the fish tank, then SHIFT + RMB to lock the fish. After locking the fish, you can return it to the fish tank to preserve its life. It will not sell unless you unlock it first.

Cheong’s Fish Tank Questline

Find Shim Cheong’s Fish Tank questline under the Suggested tab in your quest log.

There are no requirements to begin the questline, but there is a knowledge requirement to complete the last 2 quests:

  • Have knowledge “The Tale of Shim Cheong”

Knowledge “The Tale of Shim Cheong” is received at the end of a quest line that begins with the quest [Shim Cheong] Lost Daughter given by Shim the Blind.

Shim the Blind is SE of Solgaji Forest node, which is east of Nampo’s Moodle Village.

He is standing on top of the cliff, just before you dive into the waters to enter the portal to the Sea Palace.

Sea Palace – The Land of Morning Light

If you haven’t finished the Magnus questline, it can be a challenge to get to LOML. But once you’re there, you’ll find the portal to the Sea Palace east of Nampo’s Moodle Village. See map below.

How to get to LOML:

  • LOML portal in the Magnus (need to finish magnus questline).
  • Sail there on your own ship (need a ship, perferrably a fast one) or hitch a ride from a friend.
  • A free but long (1 hour 15 min) succession of ferry boat rides from Velia → Iliya → Oquilla’s Eye → LOML. See this guide.
  • Create a new character and begin their adventures in LOML.

Entering the Sea Palace

The portal to the Sea Palace looks like a swirling pool of water.

  • You can swim into the portal from sea level.
  • OR you can “dive” into the portal from the top of the cliff.
  • If you haven’t already, be sure to pick up the quest [Shim Cheong] Lost Daughter given by Shim the Blind who is located at the top of the cliff overlooking the portal to the Sea Palace. Completing this quest line will give you the knowledge you need to finish the last quest to get the fish tank.

TO DIVE:

While sprinting forward (SHIFT +W), press and hold SPACEBAR at the edge of the cliff to jump and “dive” into the swirling pool of water below.

WARNING! Keep holding SPACEBAR until you land in the water, or you will just be jumping off the edge of the cliff and likely die when you hit the water.

Inside the Sea Palace

Run forward after you enter the Sea Palace and up a few flights of stairs until you reach the top of the palace where the sick Dragon King lies. Run around to the left side of the palace. You’ll see the quest giver, Dorio the otter, fishing at the waterfall down below.

How to Leave Sea Palace

If you haven’t done the Sea Palace questline that began with Shim the Blind, then you might not know how to leave the Sea Palace.

From the sick king’s room at the top of the palace, you can see the tower that holds the Mystical Map which will take you back to LOML. Go down the stairs to the right of the palace. Keep heading down several flights of stairs, going east, until you reach the ground outside the palace. Go across the bridge and up the windy staircase to the top of the tower. Interact with the Mystical Map to leave the Sea Palace.

The Mystical Map will portal you to Nampo’s Moodle Village or Dalbeol Village. Nampo has a Magnus well for quick travel to other zones.
