Icthyoids have slimy and scaly skin and smell like fish. They are hatched from eggs. The most well known Ichthyoid is the salesman Tiny of Tiny's Used Spaceships. It is rumored that humans like the skin of the Icthyoid kind, and they are also kept frozen (fish-on-ice) to be eaten later. However, icthyoids also have uses for monkeys on their planet, that would make humans think twice about hunting them. Icthyoids do not do well on desert planets, it dries out their skin, and makes them feel like a fish out of water.
