How to Get Mermaid Tails

Learn how to get Royale High mermaid tails: find the Campus 4 bottle, complete the candle and locker steps, hatch your fishling, and unlock more tails.

What Are Royale High Mermaid Tails?

Royale High Mermaid Tails are special tail items that live in your inventory’s tail section. This Royale High Mermaid Tails guide focuses on the full quest loop: finding the beach bottle, setting up the dorm ritual, protecting the bottle overnight, naming the fishling, hatching it through the school day, and releasing it in the ocean.

The quest tail is tied to your elemental power. A run that uses flame power produces the fire-element tail, and replaying the quest with another power can produce a different elemental tail. Shop tails, such as the Goldfish Mermaid Potion tail, give you extra style options. Each tail style comes in masculine and feminine versions, so check your inventory carefully before assuming a reward is missing.

Tail source	How to unlock it	What you should know
Quest elemental tail	Complete the beach bottle ritual and release the fishling	The flame-powered run produced the fire-element tail
Quest replay tail	Run the quest again and use a different elemental power	This is the main route for matching your current element
Goldfish Mermaid Potion tail	Buy it from the Mermaid Treasure Shop after the shop unlocks	It gives a second tail and appears in your inventory’s tail section

Before You Start: Royale High Mermaid Tails Prep Checklist

The ritual is much easier when your dorm and inventory are ready before you begin. You need the beach bottle, three glowing candles, a bed with a pillow, and enough time to move through a school day. The bottle can also vanish from its spot, so know where the Lost & Found furniture is before you start placing quest items.

The Haunted Floating Candles used for the circle are listed at 250, so plan for three. If your dorm bed has no pillow, buy one before the Dream Weaver step. Turn Auto Join on before the locker portion so you keep cycling through classes without missing the next period.

Prep item or setting	Why it matters	Quick note
Campus 4 access	The quest starts at the beach	Use Campus 4, not another campus
Bottle from the palm tree	Main quest item	Pick it up and open the message
Three glowing candles	Needed for the Circle of Flame step	Haunted Floating Candles are listed at 250
Pillow on your dorm bed	Needed for the Dream Weaver step	Buy one if your bed lacks it
Auto Join	Helps with the school-day locker loop	Turn it on before attending classes
Lost & Found furniture	Recovers a missing bottle	Check it if the bottle disappears

Step-by-Step Walkthrough for Royale High Mermaid Tails

The Royale High Mermaid Tails quest follows seven practical phases. The labels below match the ritual’s item names, but the instructions are simplified so you can move from one checkpoint to the next without rereading the poem.

Step 1: Find and Fill the Bottle at Campus 4

Go to Campus 4. Walk outside past the pool and head down toward the beach. Take the stairs, jump left toward the palm tree, then pick up the bottle and open its message. This is the Bottle of Bioluminescence phase, and every later step depends on keeping that bottle in your inventory.

Wait for night. Carry the bottle to the glowing waves and click the water to fill it. This must happen at night and before midnight, so do not start the fill attempt too late in the cycle. If you miss the window, wait for the next night and try again.

Step 2: Build the Candle Circle in Your Dorm

Return to the dorms by going back up the stairs, passing the pool, and entering your dorm room. Place the filled bottle in the center of three glowing candles. Turn off the overhead lights so the room is dark apart from the flames. The Circle of Flame setup only needs those three candles around the bottle.

Room	Your dorm room
Center	The filled quest bottle
Around the bottle	Three glowing candles
Overhead lights	Turn them off
Next action	Aim your elemental power at the bottle

Step 3: Aim Your Elemental Power at the Bottle

With the bottle centered in the candle circle, use your elemental magic. Aim your power—such as the flame used in the fire-element run—at the bottle. This is the Destiny’s Tide Call phase. If you plan to farm more tails later, remember which power you used, because a different power is the key to a different quest tail.

Step 4: Sleep with the Bottle Behind Your Pillow

During the Dream Weaver phase, your bed needs a pillow. Drag the bottle behind the pillow, wait for night, and sleep close enough that the bed prompt confirms you are protecting the bottle. Wait for the success notification, then stay through dawn. Morning gives you a new potion bottle.

If the bottle keeps disappearing during this step, check the Lost & Found furniture, return the bottle to your inventory, and place it again. Do not restart the entire quest unless the bottle cannot be recovered.

Step 5: Name the Fishling and Store It in Your Locker

After dawn, the bottle contains a fish egg. Give your fishling a name and confirm it. Place the bottle inside your locker, where it will stay while you attend class. This is the Whispers of a Name phase, and the locker placement is what lets the fishling grow during the school day.

Step 6: Attend Classes and Give Love

Keep Auto Join on. Attend the school day and return to your locker between classes. Tap the bottle until the game confirms you gave it a little love. Repeat after each period; the fish hatches only after enough check-ins, so do not skip the between-class visits.

School moment	Locker action
After breakfast	Return to the locker and tap the bottle
After Potion Making	Return to the locker and tap the bottle
After Typing	Return to the locker and tap the bottle
After Archery	Return to the locker and tap the bottle
After Basketball	Return for the final check and hatch

Step 7: Release the Fishling in the Ocean

Take the bottle back outside, past the pool, down the stairs, and into the ocean water. Keep walking into the water until the release button appears, then release the fishling. You receive a badge and a short scene. The quest tail appears for the element you used—flame power gives the fire-element tail—and your fishling follows you when you swim.

More Royale High Mermaid Tails: Replays and the Treasure Shop

After the first release, you can collect more Royale High Mermaid Tails in two supported ways. The first is to run the quest again and use a different elemental power on the bottle. The second is to shop after unlocking the Mermaid Treasure Shop, which stocks limited items including other tails.

The Goldfish Mermaid Potion is one example and gives a second tail. Once purchased, the Goldfish tail sits under the inventory’s tail section alongside masculine and feminine variants. Shop stock is limited, so check the Mermaid Treasure Shop when you are looking for additional styles rather than assuming the quest is the only source.

Troubleshooting Royale High Mermaid Tails Quest Issues

If your Royale High Mermaid Tails quest stalls, the problem is usually a timing, placement, or inventory issue. Use the fixes below before restarting the whole ritual.

Problem	Fix
Bottle will not fill	Wait for night and click the water before midnight
Bottle goes missing	Check Lost & Found furniture, return it to inventory, and replace it
Sleep does not protect the bottle	Add a pillow, drag the bottle behind it, lie close, and wait for the protection confirmation
Fishling does not hatch	Keep Auto Join on, attend classes, check the locker between periods, and tap until the love confirmation appears
No release button appears	Walk farther into the ocean water with the bottle
Tail seems missing	Open the inventory’s tail section and check masculine and feminine versions

FAQ

How many Royale High Mermaid Tails can you get?

The quest supports one tail per elemental power you use, and the Mermaid Treasure Shop adds limited tails such as the Goldfish style. The exact total depends on the powers and shop stock available to you, so treat the quest as a repeatable route rather than a one-time unlock.

Do I have to complete the bottle fill at night?

Yes. The bottle fill is a nighttime step and must be done before midnight. The pillow protection step also requires night, and the new bottle arrives at dawn.

What should I do if my bottle disappears?

Check the Lost & Found furniture, move the bottle back into your inventory, and place it again. This is especially common during the locker phase, so check there before assuming the quest is broken.

How do I get the Goldfish mermaid tail?

Unlock the Mermaid Treasure Shop by completing the release, then buy the Goldfish Mermaid Potion. The tail is stored in your inventory’s tail section and has masculine and feminine versions.
