What is Popfin Reef?

Popfin Reef is a fish sorting puzzle. Tap a fish inside a bubble to send it to an open tank asking for that kind. If no tank currently wants it, the fish occupies one of five holding slots. A tank clears after its third fish, takes a new target, and pulls matching fish from the row. Clear every fish to finish the level; a full holding row or an expired timed tank ends the attempt.

Sort each fish

  1. Read the tags over the open tanks before tapping. Each target needs three fish of one kind.
  2. Choose fish that go directly to a tank when possible. A fish with no matching active target waits in the holding row until a tank changes target.
  3. Empty a bubble to remove it and make room for the next bubbles. After a tank fills, check its new target and the fish released from the row.

Handle blockers and pressure

  • Leave space in the five-slot row; tapping several off-target fish at once can end the level before the tank you need changes.
  • Tap fish in a bubble beside an iced bubble to crack the ice. Empty the bubble carrying a key to free its chained partner.
  • When a tank has a countdown, fill that target first. Net, Clear, and Refresh can help when available, but use them for a specific bottleneck.

Popfin Reef FAQ

Why did a fish go to the holding row?

No open tank was asking for its kind at that moment. It can move automatically when a tank later takes that target.

How many fish fill one tank?

Three of the kind shown on its tag. It then clears and asks for another kind.

What causes a loss?

All five holding slots filling, or a timed tank running out of time before it is filled.

How do I break ice or a chain?

Tap fish in a neighboring bubble to weaken ice. Empty the bubble with a key to unlock its chained partner.

What do the boosters do?

Net gathers fish needed by open tanks, Clear returns the holding row to the bubble queue, and Refresh reshuffles fish on screen.
