Is he in a fish tank? ;-) Fun puzzle!

The only part I ended up guessing was the eyes, nose and mouth- I just put things where they seemed to go. (Maybe I missed the logic part.) I like this very much. Thank you!

The solvability of this puzzle needs to be reviewed. There are three spots where "smile logic", technically look ahead logic, is needed. Otherwise it is entirely solvable with line and color logic. There must have been enough people who marked this solvable with guessing that those were the only options offered on the solvability drop-down. The smile and the eyes were the only spots that needed look ahead.

Not a bad image and a pleasant use of an afternoon to solve.

The eyes are double instances of smile logic, and the smile is easy to figure out, even though it has multiple solutions.
