Prawn balls detail

Prawn balls are an item regularly obtained whilst Fishing. They are earned for every 35,000 life points worth of fish caught. The life point threshold can be reduced with prawn perks. Each time a prawn ball is earned, there is a 10% chance a prawn cracker will instead be received. Fish that can't be consumed, like leaping fish, have an artificial value of life points assigned to them. Up to 60 prawn balls are opened at a time.

Catches from divine locations do not count toward the life points threshold. Catching fish for Fisherman Frodi for Managing Miscellania also does not count.

Players with level 99 Fishing can get 50 prawn balls by speaking to the Prawnbroker in the aquarium of a player-owned house.

The total number of prawn balls a player has received can be viewed by right-clicking the Bathysphere in your Aquarium and selecting "View fish list".
