The '''cylindrical salmundus''' has replaced its ancestor the [[Hexasalmundus|hexasalmundus]]. Like its ancestor it uses salt for its cell walls. The main difference is its cylindrical shape. Thanks to it, the waste from the salmundus doesn't kill the colony, as the waste goes straight to the water. Theoretically, it can grow forever, but it has a disadvantage in common with its ancestor. The irregularity in the shapes of its cells prevent it from growing larger. The cylinders aren't very resistant, so strong waves can break it. This isn't a bad thing for this salmundus, because each piece of the broken salmundus can regenerate into a whole new cylinder. |
