Mr. and Mrs. Snorkle are a married couple who have one hobby that binds them together: collecting fish. They have a massive aquarium in their home that's practically stuffed with some of the rarest fish in the world. And what fish they can't fit into it, they've placed in jars of water that are all over their house. One particularly rare species of fish has eluded them for the longest time, though. However, with the help of famous underwater detective Ignatius Harkenear, the two have finally found it. The three then set out in the Snorkles' private submarine to snatch up this fish.
