''"The Mereids call this a 'bomb fish', because it 'blows up' anything that tries to eat it. Who would have thought that this play on words works in the English language, as well as in Mereidese." - Gwenabwy Benneth- | ''"The Mereids call this a 'bomb fish', because it 'blows up' anything that tries to eat it.

The bubblefish (''Inflatuspina iridescentis'') is a magical marine animal known for its unique defense mechanism. Hailing from the mystical waters of [[Aquanara]], this fish dwells among the world's extensive coral reefs and boasts a distinctive magical ability. Its top and bottom fins contain sharp spines laden with magical venom that causes predators to inflate and float to the ocean's surface, rendering them temporarily immobile. On land creatures, the venom has a similar effect, causing them to float away helplessly. | The bubblefish (''Inflatuspina iridescentis'') is a magical marine animal known for its unique defense mechanism.
