Just because I need some revenge, **Sealemon88** (sometimes known as **Sea Lemon** ) will either name/create a species of fish and/or sea creature _after_ you, or will grant you an _existing_ species as your personal own!

So take _that_! 😛

And you can start with me.

Vengeance is **mine**!

As I was an aspiring Marine Biologist for many, many years, I definately want one. And let’s try to remember who canonized you, Seale.

Well, I’ll see what I can do. I have to work sometime today, ya know.

(Crap. FISH?)

Esprix: Le Rogue. This relative of the clown fish is mainly found near the coast of France. This fish is known for its habit of grabbing any nearby piece of kelp for use as a “security blanket”.

Mullinator: The Southern Bass. This willy fish has tormented many a fisherman, although observant ones will notice that it always swims to the right. A truly _sporting_ fish.

Missy2U: The Lackey. This swift little perch keeps from being eaten by sharks by herding other fish towords the predators.  
Swimmingriddles is easy: The ANGEL fish! 😃 This rare species is hard to find, becuase it’s strange swimming patterns enable it to elude all pursuers. It’s valued for its elegant, aristocratic form.  
Phouka: The puck. This playful fresh water fish is known for its colorful scales, as well as the fact that it tastes real good fried up southern style. The fish has evolved a very unusual affection for slivers of apples.

Mr. Cynical: The Shrug. Not much is known of this extinct fish. The few sightings of it have always been of it suggest that it was a strangely lethargic animal.

Ultress: The Carolina Bass. This majestic fish is the king of its domain. Keeping to itself, it has been the bane of many a fisherman, buy having enough strength to actually break a fishing pole! The archenimy of the Carolina Bass is the common cow, who’s plainitive moos confuse the fish, and cause it to beach itself.  
Narile: The Pseudodrake. This deep water fish finds its prey with its lumenescient forehead. It’s bright-red glow can be seen for miles. The Pseudodrake escapes predators by puffing itself up to nearly three times its size, and pretending to be a shark.

mega the roo: The Canadian Jumping Lungfish. Known for its land and water gymnastics, as well as for its constant soapy discharge, the less said about this fish, the better.

Trout Mask Replica: The Trout Mask. This fish is closy related to (surprise) the trout, but is poisenous. Also known for its wild thrashing motions.

I’m sorry for the lameness of these, but this stuff is _hard_! Touche, Esprix!

Mr. Seale, those were definitely not lame.

If they were lame, would I be desperately clamoring for you to come up with a fish for me?

Please?

Well, Agent, I’ll just look at your profile, same way I did the other fishes (I’m too senile to remember most posts. Sorry.).

Agentakbar: The Azure Fez. This fish is mainly found in the Indian Ocean. It has cause much controversy in scientific circles for is unexplained ability to split in two when confronted by danger…and then somehow rejoining itself. Although this triat of its has been witness many times, the mysterious fish refuses to reveal its secret.
