Butterfly fish

The butterflyfish is a small yellow fish that appears in the ocean during summer. It will show its face all day long. When placed in the museum it swims in the back tank, the ocean tank. This fish will sell for 1,000 Bells, and must not be confused with the Sea Butterfly, which also sells for 1,000 Bells, but appears in winter.
