List of Fish

There are many fish that have appeared throughout Happy Tree Friends, and they usually make only one appearance and a minor one at that. However, some play a pivotal role in the episode in which they appear in.

Angelfish
Angelfish briefly appear several times in Sea What I Found and Sea of Love. A yellow angelfish also appears  in  Doggone It, inside a fish tank at a pet store.

Deep-Sea Angler Fish
The angler fish only appears in Sea of Love, where it kills Russell and injures Giggles by eating their faces off. On its lure it mimics a flower, which it uses to attract prey, or Russell in this case.

Electric Eel
An electric eel appears in Off the Hook, where it electrocutes Russell while being dragged along by Lumpy fishing line. In Sea What I Found, Russell is seen using an electric eel as a welding torch.

Great White Sharks


Great white sharks appear in the episodes Happy Trails Pt. 2: Jumping the Shark, Wipe Out!, and Wingin' It. A shark also makes an appearance in Petunia's Summer Smoochie and in the games Going Overboard and Strandead.

Hammerhead Shark
A hammerhead shark is seen in Sea What I Found, where Russell uses it like an actual hammer to build his machine. The shark would later attack him after the machine fell apart.

Manta Ray
Manta rays appear a few times during Sea What I Found. One swims behind Russell as he approaches the shipwreck. Then a small school of them can be seen when Lifty and Shifty drive Disco Bear's submarine towards the undersea volcano.

Puffer Fish
In Whose Line Is It Anyway?, Russell swallows a live pufferfish, which inflates in his throat and chokes him.

Russell's Piranha
Russell's Piranha first appears in Something Fishy, where Russell presents it to his class during show-and-tell. The piranha would soon escape thanks to Giggles, killing her and Petunia, and injuring Flaky, before eating Russell's head to the bone. A bunch of piranhas are later shown at the end of YouTube Copyright School.

Sawfish
A sawfish is seen in Sea What I Found, swimming nearby the shipwreck. Russell later grabs the sawfish and uses its rostrum to cut a hole through a sunken ship. It would then attack Russell after the machine he built fell apart.

Seahorse
A seahorse briefly appears at the beginning of Off the Hook when Russell swims to the ocean floor to eat a clam.

Sword Fish
A swordfish appears at the end of Whose Line Is It Anyway?, impaling Russell through his head as he reels it in with his fishing rod.

Other Fish
Generic fish appear various times in the series, usually as characters' pets.
