Functionality

Cuddle Fish are thrown on the floor like Proximity Mine and attach/cuddle to an enemy when they come near, dealing 35HP of damage.

Similarily to the Proximity Mine, they can also be shot to activate, dealing the same amount of damage.

Strategy Guide

The risk was calculated... but I'm bad at math.

This section outlines a strategy. Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.

If you obtain 6 Cuddle Fish (the max stack size), you can throw them down in one place to attach to one enemy. As there are 6, they deal 210 damage in total - a guaranteed elimination, even with shields.
