Despite this, they are often larger than living Cheep Cheeps, and have completely different tail fins. In later games, they take on torpedo-like qualities. | ||

Fish Bones (or "Fishbone" in the in-game English version cast roll) are found in the submerged [[Vanilla Fortress]] and the underwater room of [[Bowser's Castle]]. They are the only strictly aquatic dungeon enemies in the game, though terrestrial enemies are also found underwater in these levels. Their behavior is simple, traveling in straight lines across the screen in a jerky, darting motion, usually in small groups. Fish Bones can be defeated by [[Cape Mario]] or Cape Luigi's spin attack, but only in ''[[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|Super Mario Advance 2]]'', and are otherwise invincible. | |||

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', Fish Bones appear in the [[Bonefin Galaxy]] during Mario's boss battle with [[Kingfin]]. In this game, they have glowing red eyes, spinning, propeller-like fins, and attack in a way that's very similar to [[Torpedo Ted]]s: by homing in on Mario and striking him to cause damage. They can be destroyed by being led to the surface. After the player has used a [[Green Shell]] or a [[Red Shell]] to damage Kingfin, it will summon Fish Bones to attack Mario. When the player has hit Kingfin two more times, he will summon a lot more Fish Bones, which will disappear after the battle has finished. | |||

Fish Bones | Fish Bones inhabit some water levels in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''; they appear in {{world-link|4|castle|World 4-Castle (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}} and {{world-link|5|ghosthouse|World 5-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}}. Also, in the battle against [[Wendy O. Koopa]] in {{world|4|castle}}, various Fish Bones can be seen swimming in a water tank in the background. | ||
They now have a new attack pattern: if a Fish Bone detects one of the characters, it will lock on to them (as their eyes turn red) and launch themselves in the direction of the character. If it misses and hits a wall or another Fish Bone, it will crash and break apart in a similar manner to that of [[Dry Bones]] (the sound effect is longer if it hits another Fish Bone). However, once they break apart, they will reappear if the player goes far enough offscreen. Fish Bones can be permanently defeated with [[Ice Ball]]s, a thrown object, or a [[Super Star]]. Fish Bones will stop following a player that jumps out of the water; the player can also dodge them by walking on the floor and ducking once spotted, which turns the Fish Bone's eyes back to normal and stops the chase. | |||
In the | In dark caverns, their eyes light up, although the illuminated area around them is much smaller than that provided by [[Bulber]]s and thus far less useful. They are referred to as '''Wet Bones''' in the [[Prima Games]] guide.<ref name=NSMBWii /> | ||
