Discuss word games, puzzles, and The Atlantic's Puzzler in our online forum. Emily Cox and Henry Rathvon may drop by from time to time.Each clue answer has one letter (it may be any) in its correspondingly numbered cell, and the rest swimming clockwise around it. Entries at the periphery go clockwise from border to border around the letter in the numbered cell. Seven unclued specimens are afloat in our bowl; each goes clockwise around a shaded fish, with one letter in the fish's cell. Letters in the seven fishes' cells may be read, starting with the central cell and continuing clockwise around it, to see what our specimens are swimming in. (As a check, letters in the numbered cells may be arranged to spell ELMO, A NEON TETRA, CAME OUT OF A SHADOW.) Eight clue answers are capitalized; one of the unclued specimens has two words.
