Step 5:

Sections 2,3,4,5, form the box. Section 1 and 6 are folded back to form the fin. Looking down on the box shape you will see why I called this a “Tropical Fish Box”.

Step 6:

If you wish to add decorator paper panels glue them first while your paper is flat. Form your box and flaps. Glue Panel 1 and 6 together. With Scor-Tape™.

Tuck in the bottom tabs to form the bottom of the box. Glue the last tab folded in.
