  • Choose the white paint and the second smallest circle to go over the orange bits on the white stripes.
    If you go over the black bits by accident, like I did, just choose the black and the smallest circle and add a bit more on!

  • Your fish lives in an anemone's wavey tenticles.
    You can draw an anemone by using pink, green or purple.
    Select your paint, the third smallest circle and draw a blob at the bottom and fill it in.
    Then use the moon to make darker shades for the wavey tenticles.
