4 of these bug-eyed ugly crabs will ambush you in the glowing green pipe behind of Clanker. They're atributes are idenitical to normal Snippets, but they are a little smarter.

In Clanker's throat and belly, several of these invincuble tenticles will whip around, trying to smack you for one Honeycomb of energy. Just swim around them.Jigsaw Pieces
Oxygen Vaccum
First, go forward, dive, and go into the tunnel uunderwater. Once in the chamber with Clanker, right of the big mechanical shark, you'll find a long, spiraling, winding tunnel under the water. Make sure you have full air while going into it, because you barely have enough to get in, get to the end of the tunnel, grab the Jigsaw, get out and replenish you oxygen supply before you perish.Crab Cakes
Go into the glowing green pipe on the back end of the cavern, and meet the Snippet Mutants, four ugly, bug eyed crabs. Beak Bust these creatures to put an end to them and win a Jigsaw Piece.Save Clanker
Now for the hardest Jigsaw in the level. Replenish your air supply, and dive toward the hole on the floor of the cavern. Once in the eerie bottom chamber, meet gloop, the bright blue, big, friendly fish. Hold A to swim slowly, and swim behind him, collecting the bubbles he makes to replenish your Oxygen, 2 Honeycombs at a time. Following Gloop, swim through the key in the anchor bolt 3 times to raise Clanker. In gratitude, he'll put a Puzzle Piece on his back. Swim to the surface, then hop onto one of his fins. Flap Flip onto his back and collect your reward.Tall Tails
Still on his back, Talon Trot up his long tail carefully. Climb onto the platform at the top, and use a Rat-a-tat Rap to blow away the grate on the wall. Collect the Jigsaw inside.Burst Platform
Back on Clanker, stand near his blowhole. When the screw is on top of it, stand on it. As he blows, the screw, and you on it, will fling up into the platform overhead. Quickly leap off, and slowly walk along the pipe twisting to the wall. Once there, Flap Flip into the notch, and collect another Jiggy.Clanker's Toothache
Now, to help Clanker once again. Stand on the brown platforms to either side of his mouth, aim at his gold teeth, and fire 3 Eggs into each. Once both his painful gold teeth are blown down, he'll tell you he swallowed the award. Swim into the space where his left gold tooth was, and collect the Jigsaw on his tooth, but don't jump down.In the Blowhole
Back on Clanker's back again, leap into his blowhole when the screw is above. You will see several whirling blades. Now, pay attention to the marks on the floor to see their exact location. Carefully walk through them, don't feel bad if you take a couple hits. At the end, take the Jigsaw Piece and go into the open passage.Blue and Green Rings
When you fall into Clanker, you are in a watery chamber with several blue hoops, and a green one. Pass through the green one, and a 48 second timer will appear, and another will become green. Quickly as possible, swim and jump through all the green ones, and when going through the 2 before the final one, jump and Feathery Flap through them both. After winning, the water will rise and a Jigsaw will appear.The Wonderwing
Grab the Jiggy, then swim onto the opposite side, and leap onto the Flight Pad there. Fly into the passage on the wall. Once in, speak to Bottles, who will teach you the Wonderwing and give you 5 Invunerability Feathers. Use the Wonderwing and dash through the whirling blades, and collect the Puzzle Piece. Get 5 more Invunerability Feathers, and Wonderwing your way back.The Jinjos Five
To the left of Clanker, underwater, is a tunnel, with the Blue Jinjo holding it's breath in the middle.At the very bottom of the well, standing near Gloop, next to the anchor bolt, is the Green Jinjo.

A Message From Grunty
Into Clanker's Cavern you will swim. How can you fathom these depths, being you're so dim?
Into the jaws of a whale you must paddle, and against crabby crustaceans you will do battle.
So dive right in till' you're blue for air. The color will go niely with that backpack you wear.
And as you swim across this vast marine expanse, keep in mind it's where I wash my underpants!
