A Colo claw fish is a fictional alien animal featured in the Star Wars multimedia franchise. It is part of canon continuity and first appeared in the 1999 prequel film Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace.
Description[]
A Colo claw fish is an underwater marine animal found on planets such as Naboo and Odona. It is more like a fat-bodied eel than a fish and has a long body tapering back into a thin tail and an elongated head with a hinged jaw and large teeth, similar to that of an Earth alligator. The Colo claw fish had bioluminescent skin, which made it easily visible in lower depths.
History[]
In 32 BBY, the Jedi known as Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi had been traveling from the undersea community of Otoh Gunga through the planetary core. They were pursued by a Colo claw fish, which likely would have destroyed the Bongo submersible they were in, but for the timely appearance of a Sando aqua monster, which attacked the Colo claw fish and ate it.
