The arctic gilltail split from its ancestor, the gilltail. It uses its icy colored fins to give the effect of icicles. Whenever in danger it will point its' fins as a form of defense. Usually it will wait for hours to find a wounded or sick creature to feed upon. But, If in great need it will chase its prey for miles. Its eyes have a protective seal which keep them attached to its body. If the protective seal is torn then it will be blinded. The advantage of it having big eyes is that it can see further ahead.
