Can I request the mokele-mbembe bichir?

Today on CHUNK! FUNK! GUNK! We rate

the MOKELE-MBEMBE BICHIR:

5/10 Chunk

6/10 Funk

6/10 Gunk

As a preface, I know nothing about this fish aside from my little google research. I couldn’t find anything on its bones, so I assume that it has the normal amount and is just a good chunky little guy. It is very very cute, but still a pretty regular looking fish, moderate funk. A lot of things talked about snails eating the slime off of them, so I assume that they are gunky little guys!

Overall: 8/10

Omg they’re so cute Omg I want one I want one I want one Omg omg omg LOOK AT IT

Hycia Update: The Elemental Sages

I'm a bit late to be able to post this on Easter, but I wanted to debut something special for this week's batch of characters. I wanted to go with a very colorful approach in bringing a wide variety of cichlid fish into the world of Hycia.

These characters are known as the "elemental sages" of the River Kingdom: Hycians who seclude themselves in a sacred training ground known as the Shining Sanctum. The sanctum's calming atmosphere helps the sages-in-training here channel in to the environment, allowing them to unlock extreme potential through their elemental powers.

The master of them all is Eldrichlid, based on a flowerhorn fish! As a character, he's wise and judgement-free, and as a card he packs a lot of power!

There will always be new characters to discover, so be sure to follow to meet each new character that appears as they’re being made. Be sure to check out Hycia’s website to meet the entire cast!

I'm just a fish in a fishtank at the mall. no sense in my life besides my bright scales. perhaps you'll look at me for a minute. you will probably think: "wow! I saw a beautiful fish today!"

will you remember me?
