The Fishy Namesakes still seem to cause some confusion sometimes, so I thought it might be useful to have these listed on the forums in an accessible place, for those who wish to see them. This page contains spoilers, so if you prefer to work them out for yourself, please don't read any further.
The basic premise is that you have to set up for the wildlife which the fish is named after, but with your garden underwater. Where there are two other wildlife included in the name of the fish, you would need a set up which was attractive to both. For the Fishy Namesakes, either feeding table may be used, even if the wildlife the fish is named after would only use a particular table.
Deterrents for the wildlife the fish is named after will also deter the Fishy Namesake. The only exception to this is the Hippo Tang where you can deter the underwater Hippo without deterring the Hippo Tang.
SQUIRRELFISH
Eats: birdmix
Attracting plants: As for Red Squirrel - Taiyo Bonsai, or red flowers
Deterred by: all fully grown or ready to harvest herbs, except the RTH Nestflower
ZEBRAFISH
Eats: veggies
Attracting plants: As for Zebra - Tulipa Praecocia in the black and/or white magic pots. This is slightly different to the set up for Zebras, since you don't need both colours.
Deterred by: no deterrent
HIPPO TANG
Eats: veggies
Attracting plants: As for Hippos - fully grown Dulcia Glaciaflora
Deterrents: no deterrent
Additional information: since the Hippos can come underwater, you may wish to deter them with a fully grown Dulcia Saccraflora
LEOPARD BUSH FISH
Eats: veggies
Attracting plants: As for Leopards - ready to harvest Ventus Quatriflorus
Deterrents: fully grown Flora Formicidae
FOXFACE RABBITFISH
Eats: veggies
Attracting plants: As for the Fox and Brown Bunny - fully grown Bellis Lycaena (not blue or yellow) AND any fully grown or ready to harvest Herb/s
Deterrents: Blue or yellow fully grown Bellis Lycaena, ready to harvest Rosa Amora
PINK SKUNK CLOWNFISH
Eats: veggies
Attracting plants: As for the Skunk - fully grown Rosa Amora (but MUST be in the pink marshmallow pot)
Deterrent plants: fully grown Mountain Whisper herb
RACCOON BUTTERFLY FISH
Eats: tropical fruit
Attracting plants: as for the Raccoon and Butterfly - fully grown Carmena Uniflora plus a sparkling Butterpillaflora
Deterrent plants: fully grown or ready to harvest Spring Crown herb
Additional information: you may use any colour of Butterpillaflora, but it MUST be sparkling - ie you must attach a caterpillar to the plant as if you were going to attract a butterfly
