Butterfly Fish Additional Info

Dialogue When Caught

"I caught a butterfly fish! Did it change from a caterpillar fish?"

Dialogue When Donated to Blathers

  Ah, the butterfly fish is just charming with its beautiful colors and elegant movements. I refer to it as a butterfly fish, but it's actually a grouping in which there are over 100 types!

  These beautiful aquatic friends swim in schools amid coral, fluttering back and forth with the tides.

  The sheer awe one must experience when witnessing such a sight. It must be a dream! So much better than actual butterflies...
