Their appearance is based on the moray eel and the goosefish, known in Japanese as utsubo and ankō respectively. They are giant sea creatures, with their head alone being bigger than Wario.

The sea creatures live in dark holes and will not crop up until Wario comes near. When they wait for prey in their holes, they can be recognized by their eyes glowing in the dark.
