How to beat Colony Flow! Level 552 — full solution
- Tap the two Brown 400 boxes sitting above the stack. They release ants to dismantle the two brown treasure chest structures covering the lower half of the mosaic.
- Tap the Orange 35 box on the far left, the Green 14 box, the Cyan 49 box, and the Cyan 20 box from the front row. They work down the outer edges, daisy flowers, and border pixels of the picture.
- Tap the Light Blue 45 box (treated as Cyan) on the left, the Cyan 20 box in the center, and the Orange 45 box on the right of the stack as they become accessible. These strip into the body of the orange fish and surrounding waters.
- Tap the Black 5 box and the White 44 box as they reach the front of the stack. They remove the clownfish's eye block, white facial bands, and white flower centers.
- Tap the Yellow 40 box and Yellow 45 box to clear the yellow fins, accents, and remaining flower centers on the picture.
- Tap the Cyan 35 box, Cyan 50 box, and Cyan 40 box from the central stack to strip down the large expanse of upper ocean background.
- Tap the Orange 50 box, Cyan 45 box, and Green 45 box to peel off the remaining interior fish scales and green leaves.
- Tap the Cyan 33, Cyan 30, and Cyan 29 boxes remaining in the bottom column. They send ants to gather the final fragments of the blue sky until the board is completely cleared.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping internal fish boxes like Black 5 or Orange 50 before the outer Brown 400 chests are cleared → the ants have no exposed blocks of their colour to target, stalling in a slot indefinitely.
- Filling all five slots with Cyan boxes at once when flowers or white fish stripes block the path → slot jam causes an instant loss.
Quick tips for Level 552
- Always activate the large Brown 400 boxes right away, as they remove large obstructive barriers in the lower foreground.
- Alternate between Cyan and decorative colours (White, Green, Yellow) to prevent slots from locking up behind blocked paths.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- A pixel canvas displaying an orange clownfish against a cyan watery backdrop with white daisies and two large Brown 400 chests at the base. Beneath the picture sit five empty slots and a deep vertical stack of ant boxes.
- Goal
- Clear all coloured blocks from the mosaic by deploying ant boxes into the five slots without causing a deadlock.
- Opening
- Deploy the two front Brown 400 boxes immediately to strip away the bottom chests and expose the lower edges of the image.
- Trap
- The Black 5 box for the fish eye is trapped behind multiple layers of orange and white pixels; tapping it early leaves it stuck in a slot.
- Mechanic
- Ants can only collect exposed blocks that touch the open edge of the image; buried interior colours remain inaccessible until exterior blocks are eaten away.
Level 552 questions
-
What should I tap first on Level 552?
Tap the two Brown 400 boxes positioned directly above the stack to tear down the two large wooden chests at the bottom.
-
Why won't my Black 5 ant box collect blocks?
The clownfish eye is embedded inside orange and white scales. You must clear the surrounding fish body before the black eye becomes exposed.
