First thing that popped into my mind.

So fun to solve, Norma!

There are 30,000 species of fish in the sea.

Reminds me of the saying "There are other fish in the sea."

This so reminds me of the Intellivision game "Shark Shark". Cool image Norma. :)

Thank you Teresa and Aldege. I was actually thinking of a movie.

Because of the K in 30K I immediately thought of 20,000 Leagues under the Sea by Jules Verne, but since that doesn't fit the title I checked with Uncle Wiki and learned that there was a 2007 movie update with the 30K title.

Tricky solve and a cute image, just the way I like them. Thanks, Norma.

Thank you, Lollipop. And you are correct!

Cute!

Thank you, Kristen.

30,000 species, huh? That's a lot of sushi! Yum ^-^

Actually there are about 2.2 million species that live in the oceans.

A thought just occurred to me, Norma, and I can't think of a better way to get your attention but to ask you in the comments of one of your own puzzles. Often I find you leave a comment in the big puzzles that it is too big for your screen. When I create puzzles, I'd like to be considerate of that. What's the biggest that you can comfortably solve in the space you've got?

A lot depends on how many clues there are at the top. (The more clues, the taller it gets.) I am using a fairly small TV as my monitor but it is wide screen so I can solve wide puzzles. I can create a little more space using F11, but 50+ can be a problem. I have solved puzzles sliding everything up and down and reversing the placement of the clues, but that tends to hurt my eyes now and gives me a headache.

But, please, don't go to any special trouble for me. There are those who get great pleasure out of large puzzles, so I wouldn't want to spoil their fun.

Good to know. I'll still keep you in mind, though. ^-^

Wonderful puzzle Norma!

Thank you, Susan.

Fun to solve. No guessing. Delightful image.

Thanks, BlackCat

I loved solving this, but found it fairly difficult considering early on I knew what it was going to be, but each one is differently constructed, especially when the fish you're trying to put together turns out to be seaweed!
Bravo for a terrific puzzle Norma!

Thank you very much, Bill!
