Crystal Gilltail

The crystal gilltail split off from its ancestor the gilltail, and has come into the shallow coastlines of eastern Glicker. Here it was full of many kinds of green crystal flora in which it thrived on; however it still had to compete with the mining beakworm, coastworm lancer and krystal snoutsuckling. Over time it was able to cause the krystal snoutsuckling to become extinct.

Its success is its gills which allow it to absorb more oxygen then the other beakworms. This keeps it active longer and able to escape predators faster. They also were green in color which helped camouflage them around the green crystal flora. Crystal gilltails lay their eggs in the sand which hides them more successfully than just straight in the water. Even their stronger parrot-like beak has allowed them to bite off the hard outsides from crystal flora. They do not eat the red insides, so they did not compete with coastworm lancer as much. They also have developed an immunity to the poisonous green crystal flora lines.
