For contest Recycle My Bicycle at New Elementary
When another Part Fest came out and I saw Bone Fish made by Ben Tritschler, he inspired me to do a fish.
I used two new bicycle parts to make it. I connected them using Plate, Modified 1 x 1 with Clip Horizontal (61252) and plate round. I added few parts like Minifigure, Wing Feathered (11100), Cattle Horn - Long (13564), Arm with Technic Pin (28660). At the end I added coral reef.

The reef is friendsy but you can imagine how realistic it would look with 8-10 base plate areas , looking at how much variations your MOCs have brick parts sellers must be camped outside your place. The fish build is super innovative -2 thumbs up ,the whole scene  -3 thumbs up

Thanks John.
I made bigger version on 32x32 because this is tiny. Pictures soon.
But much bigger can be interesting.

Wow. That is really cool. I love the colours. It really captures the undersea view ... at least how Disney represent it :) You could put that in an aquarium in any room! It’s one of my favourites of your creations now.

Well done.
