Appearance
The Spadefish is small in size and has a flat, rounded, triangular body. It has two small fins at the sides and one long dorsal fin that extends across its tail, which protudes from the back of the triangle. Next to the side fins, two tendrils extend towards the tail, to which they connect about mid-way.

The Spadefish has a broad, yet low mouth lined with small white teeth at the front and a large eye at the top. A small concave black stripe goes up from the tip of its mouth.

Most of its body is blue with a few light blue dots, except for the redish purple area around the eye, and the bright red fins. The Spadefish's fins and dots are bioluminescent, making it easy to spot at night.

Behaviour
The Spadefish swims at a moderate pace with small wiggling motion in its tail. It most commonly swims close to the ground and will ocasionaly flee from the player when approached. It is afraid of most movement that it can't see. For example, it will flee when the player swims beneath it.
