We combine two Gaussianization techniques - Wavelet Non-Linear Wiener Filter (WNLWF) and density reconstruction - to quantify the recovery of Fisher information that is lost in the gravitational collapse. We compute a displacement fields, in analogy with the Zel'dovich approximation, and apply a Wavelet Non-Linear Wiener Filter that decomposes the reconstructed density fields into a Gaussian and a non-Gaussian component. From a series of 200 realizations of N-body simulations, we compute the recovery performance for density fields obtained with both dark matter particles and haloes. We find that the height of the Fisher information trans-linear plateau is increased by more than an order of magnitude at k > 1.0h/Mpc for particles, whereas either technique alone offers an individual recovery boost of only a factor of three to five. We conclude that these two techniques work in a symbiosis, as their combined performance is stronger than the sum of their individual contribution. When applied to the halo catalogues, we find that the reconstruction has only a weak effect on the recovery of Fisher Information, while the non-linear wavelet filter boosts the information by about a factor offive. We also observe that non-Gaussian Poisson noise saturates the Fisher information, and that shot noise subtracted measurements exhibit a milder information recovery.
