Gleamin' Breams, also spelled Gleaming Breams,[1] are enemies in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. These bulky yellow fish are encountered in Floodlit Fish only. Gleamin' Breams are uniquely bioluminescent, so they can produce and emit light, and Enguarde can stab a Gleamin' Bream to startle it and have Gleamin' Bream illuminates the area temporarily. Gleamin' Breams are relatives of Bounty Basses, but do not release any items, unlike them. A photograph of a Gleamin' Bream appears in Dixie Kong's Photo Album, under the Aquatic Attackers class, in the original version only.
Gleamin' Breams appear to be the inspiration for a species of bioluminescent fish in the Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze level, Amiss Abyss. They are small and encountered in schools. Scattering a school of such fish with a corkscrew move makes them produce light for a short time and illuminate the dark area of the stage.
