A couple of unusual moves for me for a total of five steps.
Quote: | (7)r4c8 - (7=1)r6c7 - r8c7 = r8c2 - (1=7)r5c2 - r5c5 = r4c5 - (7=6)r4c8; r4c8<>7,
xy-wing 12-7 with vertex in r8c2 and pseudocell 27 in r68c7,
Sashimi x-wing on 1 in r68c27,
finned x-wing 7 in r19c39,
(6=4)r7c2 - (4=7)r7c1 - r2c1 = r1c3 - (7=6)r1c9; r7c9<>6 to complete the puzzle.

This puzzle has a traditional UR that still needs two more steps to complete the puzzle. However, there's a one-stepper UR present as well. |

Couldn't find a useful UR or a W on 17. I played a Type 4 UR on 78 between ERs on 1 and 7. That reduced the grid to a very easy BUG+2. |

After some fish eliminations should have preceeded my previous statement. Sorry!!!
Code: | <78> UR r27c89
r2c9=5 r3c9=2 r3c7<>2 r9c7=2 => r9c7<>6
r7c9=6 => r9c7<>6
+-----------------------------------------------------+
| 8 1 37 | 2 4 5 | 36 9 67 |
| 37 45 2 | 1 9 6 | 34 78 578 |
| 45 9 6 | 7 3 8 | 24 1 25 |
|-----------------+-----------------+-----------------|
| 2 3 4 | 8 7 9 | 5 6 1 |
| 6 7 9 | 5 1 3 | 8 2 4 |
| 1 8 5 | 6 2 4 | 7 3 9 |
|-----------------+-----------------+-----------------|
| 47 46 1 | 3 5 2 | 9 78 678 |
| 9 2 8 | 4 6 7 | 1 5 3 |
| 357 56 37 | 9 8 1 | 26 4 267 |
+-----------------------------------------------------+
# 24 eliminations remain

Replaces ...
Code: | r27c89 <78> UR Type 4 <> 7 r27c9
c39 X-Wing <> 7 r9c1
r27 X-Wing <> 7 r9c1
