You can only use each effect of this card’s name once per turn.
(1) When this card is Summoned: You can send 1 Fish monster, except “Deadreef the Ephemeral Fish” from your Deck to the GY.
(2) You can banish this card from your GY, then target 3 Fish monsters in your GY; shuffle them into the Deck, then draw 1 card.

Note: This card is forcing 揺海 (Flickering Sea) to sound like Youkai (you know, the native otherworld creatures of Japan, similar to the Fae of Britain).

Note 2: This card was revealed on March 18th, 2020. This is “Spirit Day”. Konami has a sense of humor.

Basicly one intends to mill Coelacanth and then Synchro Summon White Aura Monoceros to revive it.

Funnily enough one can use Coelacanth as a pseudo mill for right hand(ed) shark and left hand(ed) shark, Link laddering in the process.

One cannot go wrong with an upgraded Armageddon Knight (mills for all summons and has an own immediate grave effect).

Card is crazy good, IMO. As pointed above, it's a better Armageddon Knight for Fish. Like Scrap Recycler does for Orcusts, this card is just waiting for floaty Fish to get better. The Emeral effect is a welcomed and sweet icing on cake after that.

Plus, I find the art really cool!

I just find it hilarious that it can miss timing. Really gives it an old-school feel. XD
