Java Edition
When tropical fish spawn in the wild, 90% of the time they appear as one of the 22 varieties seen on the right, and the other 10% of the time their patterns, size, and colors are completely random, drawn from any of 2 shapes, 15 colors, 6 patterns, and 15 colors for the pattern. The color black does not appear on any naturally-spawned tropical fish, since the eyes are usually hard to see. These result in 2,700 naturally-occurring combinations.

Tropical fish can be summoned with black as one or both of their colors, and/or without any visible pattern, though even without the pattern they can still have a pattern color, causing a further 884 possible combinations, 480 of which look the same due to the missing pattern.

Bedrock Edition
Tropical fish do not have common varieties $$. Instead, for naturally spawned tropical fish spawn in attempt as 22 preset and another attempt use randomly chosen patterns, sizes, and colors (except black). Tropical fish from spawn egg will use randomly chosen patterns, sizes, and colors (except black).

Tropical fish variants in buckets have names that are assigned based on their colors and type. $$, the names are in the name of the bucket, giving names like "Bucket of Plum Blockfish", "Bucket of Sky-Orange Snooper", or "Bucket of Orange-Lime Dasher". $$, the type, and colors are displayed as item tooltips.

$$, the following colors are renamed from their defaults when they refer to tropical fish. Parentheses indicate default name and color id - see § Entity data.
 * (Light Blue; 3)
 * (Pink; 6)
 * (Light Gray; 8)
 * (Cyan; 9)
 * (Purple; 10)

The base color is first, and the pattern color is next if it is different.

The fish type is determined according to the shape and pattern of the fish:

Some varieties of tropical fish don't follow the normal naming system; instead, they reference real-life fish species. $$, these unique fish are limited to the 22 common varieties. $$, there are also 22 uniquely-named tropical fish, though they are not all the same as $$. These uniquely-named tropical fish aren't different from regular tropical fish in terms of design or behavior.
