Donating to the Museum

As with all bugs and fish in Animal Crossing series, the Olive Flounder can be donated to the Museum by talking to Blathers. During a donation, Blathers will tell the player a bit about the donation. Below is what he has to say;

In Wild World

Blathers has this to say about the olive flounder in Animal Crossing: Wild World;

"For some time, I was convinced that olive flounder tasted of olives. It turned out that it was a rather elaborate joke played upon me... I should have known there are no such things as flounder olives, either!"

In City Folk

Upon donating the olive flounder in Animal Crossing: City Folk, Blathers will say:

"Olive flounders are masters of self-transformation... who, I'm told, can grow to almost 40 inches long. That's like some sort of underwater bath mat! It's a good thing you caught this one while it's still young!"

It can be found in the tank at the back of the aquarium, hiding underneath sand, with other ocean fish.
