Watch out for
Hazards glow red and show a warning before they arrive. Thick Gloves from the shop keep you safe for three minutes.
- Box Jellyfish: stings: you lose a few coins and your taps freeze for a moment.
- Pufferfish: puffs up and scares nearby fish away.
- Reef Shark: chases and eats fish until you tap it five times to drive it off.
