Template:Species-infobox Gleamin' Breams are bulky yellow fish from the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and Game Boy Advance game Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble. These obese breams appear only in one level, Floodlit Fish. Unlike their red lookalikes, called Bounty Basses, they do not carry any items and they cannot be defeated. However, Gleamin' Breams have a unique ability: they are bioluminescent, which means they are able to produce and emit light. If the player manages to attack one, using Enguarde the Swordfish's stab, the Gleamin' Bream will make a shocked face and will illuminate the area. This light will fade in a short while, though.

Although they can hurt Enguarde and the Kongs, Gleamin' Breams are not real enemies. Indeed, they unwillingly help Dixie and Kiddy Kong by lighting the dark waters of the Razor Ridge lakes. Their bioluminescence proves very useful in "Floodlit Fish", though in the Game Boy Advance remake of the game, it is possible to get through the level without hitting a Gleamin' Bream even once, due to the increased brightness in the portable. According to the game's credits, Gleamin' Breams belong to the "Aquatic Attackers" enemy class.
