synopsis
On a secret government assignment, Aqualad and Tusky pay a visit to the all-water world Planet Q344. Soon the pair find themselves embroiled in the never-ending war between the froglike Bimphars and the fishlike Quatix. One thing leads to another, and by episode's end Aqualad is leading the Bimphars against the Quatix--who are being commandeered by none other than Aquaman (where's a good mediator when we need one?) And oh yes, there's also a giant squid in the midst of the fray.
