Fleek eel/Legends

"There's nothing like a good fleek eel dripping in pepper oil."

- Baron Hieromarn

The fleek eel was a species of slippery eel found in the Hocekureem Sea on Falleen. They were caught with tridents. The eels were cooked in pepper oil and were considered a delicacy, often served alive in a cream. Around 3,964 BBY, Marn Hierogryph, under the pseudonym Baron Hieromarn, solicited investments to pay for tankers to transport the eels to Taris. He predicted that the eels would be a smash hit among the denizens of the Upper City.

Later, Dexter's Diner on Coruscant would often serve cream of fleek eel. It was possibly the source for fleek skin. They were also served at the Menarai.

There was also the proverbial expression spear two fleek-eels with the same trident to describe multiple success with little effort.
