Candy Crush Saga is a fun and colorful game, but some levels can be tricky. One of the best ways to clear jellies and other obstacles is by using the special candy fish. These little swimmers are a game-changer, and knowing how to make them can help you beat even the toughest levels. To make a fish in Candy Crush, you need to match four candies of the same color in a 2x2 square.

How to Make a Fish

Making a fish is simple once you know the trick. Look for opportunities to arrange four candies of the same color into a square. When you make this match, the four candies will combine and create a fish of that same color. The fish will then swim to a random spot on the board and eat a candy, which is super helpful for clearing jellies or other blockers.

I remember being stuck on a particularly hard level for days. No matter what I did, I couldn't clear the last few jellies in the corners. I was about to give up when I accidentally made a 2x2 square of blue candies. A little blue fish appeared, swam right to one of the corner jellies, and cleared it! It was the breakthrough I needed, and I finally passed the level.

Why Fish Are Your Best Friends

Fish are amazing because they target the candies you need to clear the most. They are especially useful for:

• Clearing Jellies: Fish will swim directly to a jelly and clear it. This is a lifesaver when jellies are in hard-to-reach places.
• Unlocking Cherries and Hazelnuts: If you need to drop ingredients, fish can help clear the path.
• Hitting Blockers: Fish can also target licorice swirls, chocolate, and other annoying blockers.

I was playing a level where a chocolate fountain was spewing out chocolate every turn. It was so frustrating! But then I started making fish. Each fish would swim over and take a bite out of the chocolate, keeping it under control so I could focus on the rest of the puzzle. It completely changed my strategy for that level.
