I always found it odd how the Tiny Cave Fish was a curiosity. I would like it to be equipable, possibly with stats. Seeing as it's blind, I would go Watchful -1, Shadowy +2. What do you guys think?

Sick as it sounds, I'd rather that the Starveling Cat be a Companion. In any event, I don't see why the Tiny Cave Fish couldn't be one.

I think the implicit assumption is that, like the dark-dewed cherries, it's a food, not a companion. Still, I see no reason not to make it equipable, though stats seems a bit absurd. it can't communicate, it isn't trained, and the only thing it's good for is feeding rubberies.

Although, strangely enough, while two of the mandrakes (Deshrieked and Half-Wild) ARE companions, the third (Giggling) is indeed in the curiosity section, same as the cave fish.
So I guess the answer to the question of whether mandrakes count as companions is "sometimes." :P

You can give it all the affection you'd give a pet without having it be in your pet slot :P

I have to agree, personally I just like filling my (imaginary) Serene Aquarium.
Although if De Gustibus isn't to return any time soon, perhaps possibly one option might be to make them consumable?
In keeping with the description, trade in (multiples?) for Rubberyman favours and/or Casing cp's?

I mean, the Deshrieked Mandrake is a companion, and it basically has the same status in-universe. Maybe the Tiny Cave Fish should hang out in that slot.
