Its lures now resemble the green photosynthetic crystals and its shell resembles the red fungi-like part of the marine crystal.

Like its ancestor they stay in colonies to mimic the the colonies of [[Marine Crystal|marine crystals]] which grow on the sea floor. They can both asexually bud off each other or produce spores. When the spores land in the sand they form into "pede-like" larva which eventually have their shell harden and turn into adults. Those that bud off have a head start and will find a new spot to settle in the sand before their shells harden. |

The crystal trapinout split from its ancestor, the colonial trapinout. It grew to twice its ancestors size so it could mimic the marine crystal. Its lures now resemble the green photosynthetic crystals and its shell resembles the red fungi-like part of the marine crystal. It feeds on prey who would normally feed on the marine crystal such as the marine gilltail. The rest of it shell and mouth are golden yellow to blend in with the local sand. Unlike its ancestor it has no immobilizing poison and just swallows its prey whole when it attacks.
Like its ancestor they stay in colonies to mimic the the colonies of marine crystals which grow on the sea floor. They can both asexually bud off each other or produce spores. When the spores land in the sand they form into "pede-like" larva which eventually have their shell harden and turn into adults. Those that bud off have a head start and will find a new spot to settle in the sand before their shells harden.
