There is no single spawn code for “fish” in ARK: the command depends on the species. For example, use cheat summon Coel_Character_BP_C for a Coelacanth or cheat summon Piranha_Character_BP_C for a Piranha.

Fish spawn codes by species

ARK’s fish overview covers multiple creatures, each with its own class identifier. Choose the code for the fish you want rather than treating “fish” as one creature. The following summon commands are listed on the corresponding creature pages of the ARK Official Community Wiki.

Fish Summon command
Coelacanth cheat summon Coel_Character_BP_C
Piranha cheat summon Piranha_Character_BP_C
Aberrant Piranha cheat summon Piranha_Character_BP_Aberrant_C
Sabertooth Salmon Standard summon code not confirmed by the available reference. The surfaced result shows an event escort variant command, not a verified code for the standard creature.

Alternative SpawnDino commands

The Coelacanth and Piranha pages also list blueprint-based alternatives. These examples use the blueprint path and parameters shown on those pages:

  • Coelacanth: cheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/Dinos/Coelacanth/Coel_Character_BP.Coel_Character_BP'" 500 0 0 35
  • Piranha: cheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/Dinos/Piranha/Piranha_Character_BP.Piranha_Character_BP'" 500 0 0 35

What the summon command does

The ARK: Survival Evolved console-command reference describes creature spawn commands as spawning the specified creature at the player’s location. The command examples identify a creature by its class name, so the species identifier matters.

Console access and command permissions can differ by platform or server. The cited command reference does not establish the same access steps for every setup, so check the instructions for your platform or server before entering a command.

Choosing the right fish identifier

Use the standard Piranha identifier for a standard Piranha and the separate Aberrant identifier for the Aberrant variant. The Piranha page lists both codes. If you mean a different fish, identify its creature page first; the Coelacanth page, for instance, lists its own summon and blueprint commands.
