The fish can be found all the time. "Preferring murky water, these suck mud from the bottom with their food." - ACCF fish encyclopedia. When placed in the museum, the fish appears in the tank on the right in ACCF, but it appears in the first tank in ACWW. It is probably one of the most widespread freshwater fish in the AC series.
