Two Red Finleys
Donkey Kong swimming along with two Red Finleys.

Red Finleys[1] are reddish fish enemies and members of the Finley family in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and its Nintendo Switch port. As their name directly states, Red Finleys are red members of fish-like species, Finleys. They are also yellow on their fins, underbelly, and the tip of their tail. Red Finleys' colors might reflect their rasher behavior because they move around faster than the other Finleys.

Red Finleys are very similar to Blue Finleys in both appearance and behavior, though, as stated above, they swim faster. They appear individually and in groups. If the Kongs get in contact with a Red Finley, it bites them and they lose a heart. Donkey Kong can defeat a Red Finley by performing a Corkscrew attack on it, while Cranky Kong can defeat one by swinging his cane at it.

Red Finleys first appear in Twilight Terror, and they appear in many levels of Sea Breeze Cove. Red Finleys are never shown outside the water unlike the Blue Finleys in Rocket Rails. Red Finleys, together with Blue Finleys, allude to pair-forming underwater enemies from earlier Donkey Kong Country games, such as Flotsams and Kocos.
