'''Seaweed''' is an item that can be caught using a [[Tools#Fishing Poles|Fishing Pole]] in the [[The Beach|ocean]] during all [[seasons]], including a 41% chance to catch Seaweed while fishing in the deep-sea [[Night Market#Fishing Submarine|submarine]] ride at the [[Night Market]]. It is never caught in [[Crab Pot]]s.
It can also be foraged from a narrow strip of shore by the [[The Beach#Tide Pools|Tide Pools]], ''i.e.,'' to the east of the wooden footbridge<ref name="location" />, but it spawns relatively infrequently (3% chance per night). The saltwater [[Fish#Crab Pot Fish|crab pot fish]] ([[Cockle]], [[Crab]], [[Lobster]], [[Mussel]], [[Oyster]], and [[Shrimp]]) may produce 1-3 Seaweed in a [[Fish Pond]] when the population of the pond is at least 1.
It's also possible to find Seaweed in [[The Mines|the "Dangerous Mines"]] on floors 1-29 when the [[The Mines#Shrine of Challenge|Shrine of Challenge]] is turned on. This seaweed will always be normal quality.
Catching Seaweed with a Fishing Pole always produces standard-quality seaweed and gives 3 [[Fishing]] XP. Picking up Seaweed from the beach gives 7 [[Foraging]] XP, which will always be normal quality.
Seaweed is displayed in the [[Collections#Fish|Fish section]] of the [[Collections|collection]] tab, and counts towards the four fishing [[Fishing#Achievements|Achievements]].<ref name="quasi_fish" /> However, it is otherwise not considered to be a fish, and therefore cannot be sold to [[Willy]] at the [[Fish Shop]], does not benefit from fish price bonuses, and cannot be used in fish [[Cooking|recipes]].
One Seaweed can be placed in any [[Fish Tank]] as decoration, including the [[Community Center]]'s fish tank after the [[Bundles#Fish Tank|fish tank bundle]] is completed. Its appearance in player-placed fish tanks can be changed by picking up and re-placing the fish tank.
