Green fish always stay inflated, but unlike their master, they lack spikes. Because of their bodies, swelled to the brim and round like a globe, green fish sport their main components far away from each other: their beady eyes are located high on their bodies, while their small fins are located all the way towards their tiny tails. Their mouths are comically positioned as if they hold their breath without cease. A green fish's body is textured with light green stripes that bend on their bellies.

After inhaling enough air, Fugu will sometimes oddly exhale the green fish, along with [[Sea Urchin]]s at times. During the exhale, the fish are propelled towards the [[Kong]]s, and become less frequent as the battle goes on, getting replaced by urchins. Green fish grant damage to the primate heroes if not hit with a [[Corkscrew]] move or with [[Cranky Kong]]'s cane at the right moment. Even if done so, green fish are not instantly defeated - they only launch back, eventually bouncing into the [[Hermit Crab|hermit crabs]] and perishing. However, they are necessary as projectiles against the pufferfish boss, since he gets damaged if hit by a green fish.

Green fish[1] are enemies in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and its Nintendo Switch port. These inflated pufferfish-like enemies are sometimes exhaled by Fugu, the Frightening along with Sea Urchins, and are then propelled towards the Kongs. They become less frequent as the battle goes on, being replaced by urchins in later stages of the battle. Their purpose is to inflict damage on Fugu by launching them into him using a Corkscrew attack or Cranky Kong's cane swipe. They are defeated when they come into contact with a hermit crab or Fugu himself.
