Metroid Database Bestiary

Walking fish with tentacles growing from its head that resemble sea anemone. The Moheek is a very non-aggressive creature lurking around in the caves of SR-388. Their tentacles can sting and can do quite a bit of damage if you come in contact with one. They can go seemingly anywhere, walking up walls and ceilings with relative ease. They were once strictly aquatic creatures, but later evolved lungs and became amphibious.

Moheeks are easily dispatched with any weaponry, but their tough hide can absorb a lot of hits from the Normal Beam. They are a nuisance when appearing on slopes and are best either avoided, frozen, or destroyed with powerful beams.

The original concept art of the Moheek makes it seem like it has one large eyeball, when it, in fact, has two.
