Sweet Shrimp Additional Info

Dialogue When Caught

"I got a sweet shrimp! It's being very considerate."

Dialogue When Donated to Blathers

  "The sweet shrimp spends the first few years of its life as a male. It then transitions into a female as it ages.

 Interestingly, it is hardly alone in this type of development cycle. Indeed, a great variety of marine creatures can change their biological sex as they age.

 Clown fish, some sea stars, and sea bass are among them. Hoo hoo, the ocean is full of a great many wonders. Huzzah to that, I say!"
