Aquatic Research Upload Terminal
Here, you can trade fish for research tickets which covert to fishing credits. The terminal categorizes fish into five rankings based on rarity, ranging from common to legendary. Usually, fish found in more obscure places tend to be worth more than fish found in common places, as the fish there are probably rarer.
You can use click-drag to combine multiple sets of research tickets together into one stack, much like with cash. Handy for civilian borgs who fish, since they lack the hands to manipulate research tickets manually.

Fishin' in space
To fish, click on the tub of water provided, and the your super fancy fishing rod will take care of the rest, automatically casting and reeling in fish for you to enjoy. If you switch to your offhand or put your rod away, you will cease fishing, forcing you to cast your rod again. Some rods are better than others, for instance the Master's Fishing Rod, the highest tier of rod you can get will catch better fish than an ordinary basic one. Better rods will also catch fish faster, because space fish are attracted to more superior rods.
You aren't limited to just the provided tub of water. Try turning on the shower and fishing in there, pour water on the floor and cast your rod, the possibilities are endless! Try fishing in places nobody thought of before and experiment! After all there are about sixty different places in the game where you can cast your rod in, so don't shy away from places you believe won't work. You may be pleasantly surprised. It's also worth mentioning that there are some pretty wild and exotic places you can fish in down in the adventure zones, so don't be afraid to explore and find out what you can fish in.
Gotta catch them all!
You are able to catch fish that those earthlings may even recognize. Though, of course there are some truly beautiful fish you are able to catch, exclusive to their own special areas, though you will have to do your own exploring, these pretty ones are a well kept secret (not so secret) amongst experienced anglers. So far, here is a list of what you are able to catch.
