These large enemies appear in the few underwater levels of [[Kremlantis]] and a single [[Monkey Mountains & Chimpanzee Clouds|Chimpanzee Clouds]] and [[Big Ape City]] level. They are not particularly fast enemies, but they usually appear swimming in a waving motion, sometimes going back and forth, blocking much of the [[Kong]]s' path. Fangfishes can also swim behind walls, causing them to be invisible to the player temporarily. Because of their large body mass, Fangfish are quite similar to [[Chomps]], although Fangfish are slightly bigger than Chomps and have more erratic movement behavior. | |||
Smaller relatives of Fangfish also appear commonly in the same areas, known as [[Gloop]]. | Smaller relatives of Fangfish also appear commonly in the same areas, known as [[Gloop]]. | ||
