Players can have many different uses for these deep sea creatures that they catch in the game. They have to set out into the sea in their wet suit, after which they can press A to swim around and Y to pick up any critters they spot along the way.
Once they have caught the critters, players have two choices. First, they can sell the item to the Nook brothers or C.J., whoever is willing to offer a higher price for the same. Players can also donate the sea creature to Blathers at the Museum, who will put it up for display in the Museum.

While players will not have any financial gain from handing over the sea creature to Blathers, they can expand their Museum and increase their collection by doing so. It is always more advisable to hand over the first of every kind of critter to Blathers since it helps expand the Museum.
Players will always encounter more of the same kind of sea creatures, so they can always sell these sea creatures after they have donated the first to the Museum.
Furthermore, the kind of sea creatures that players encounter changes every month, as New Horizons islands experience a reshuffling in the critter collection every month. This helps keep things versatile for players and keeps them coming back to the game for more sea creatures every month.
