'''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 Bass]]es, 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. | '''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]]''.

Although they can hurt Enguarde and the [[Kong]]s, Gleamin' Breams are not real enemies.

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.
