Glurpfish, also referred to as protoplasmic glurpfish, represented a type of fish that originated from Mon Calamari. Being composed of protoplasm, these glurpfish lacked a defined shape, which resulted in them appearing slow and moving with difficulty.
Terpfen, a Mon Cal mechanic, maintained glurpfish within his personal aquarium located on Coruscant.
Gardulla, the Besadii Hutt crime lord, housed glurpfish in the swampy areas and pools of her opulent, yet infamous, pleasure garden. This garden was part of her Tatooine palace situated close to the Dune Sea. As they surfaced, they emitted quiet popping sounds, akin to burps.
