OVERVIEW

Understanding Peeper

A small edible fish common in early-game waters, useful for starting food supplies.

This is an original reference for the first Subnautica. Your current depth rating, oxygen, available tools and navigation route determine when an objective is practical. Follow actual in-game PDA and Fabricator information for any values that vary by version.

PRACTICAL APPROACH

How to use this information

Use a Fabricator for cooked food when you intend to eat it soon; cured food behaves differently.

COMMON MISTAKES

What to avoid

Cooked food stored for long trips can spoil; do not overpack it.
