A Red Finley's model does not differentiate too much from a Blue Finley's. It features the same structure, from the thick lips that cover tiny sharp fangs, to the menacing look in the eyes located right before the tight gills, to the broad and pointy caudal tail. However, as their name implies, Red Finleys are mostly colored red, with the exception of their bellies and fins which have shades of orange and yellow.
Red Finleys swim faster than [[Blue Finley]]s. If the [[Kong]]s get in contact with a Red Finley, it bites them and they lose a heart. The [[Kong]]s can defeat a Red Finley using any attack method, such as a [[Corkscrew (Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze)|Corkscrew]] or swinging [[Cranky Kong]]'s cane.


As stated above, Red Finleys swim with more speed than Blue Finleys, but defend themselves the same nevertheless. The Kongs get damaged if they touch any of these enemies, resulting in the loss of one heart from the health counter. Contrariwise, the player can perform a [[Corkscrew (Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze)|Corkscrew]] move on a Red Finley to defeat it. [[Cranky Kong|Cranky]]'s cane swing is also efficient in casting out the foe.
Red Finleys first appear in [[Twilight Terror]], and they appear in many levels of [[Sea Breeze Cove]]. Red Finleys are never shown outside the water unlike the Blue Finleys in [[Rocket Rails]].

Red Finleys never show up outside the water, despite the Blue Finley's ability to do so in [[Rocket Rails]]. Red Finleys, together with Blue Finleys, seem to replace pair-forming underwater enemies from other ''[[Donkey Kong Country (series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' games, such as [[Flotsam]]s and [[Koco]]s.
