Ancestor:Descendants:

The doublemouth split from its ancestor, the exusfiltra. However due to not enough food and too much competition the exusfiltra became extinct in LadyM Ocean (Sea Floor). In the coastline however it has abundant food. So much so that it developed and secondary mouth. The 2nd mouth works much like the 1st except it can expel waist from it as well. Its stomach is located in the center of it. Around both mouths are stinging tentacles that wave around to lure prey. If larger prey bites them off they can re-grow within a few days. Their shell has more segments now so it can better wiggle its self down in the sand to hide from predators. Its shell coloring also matches the sand of King Coast. Its poison tentacles quickly cause its prey to stop wriggling due to paralyzing toxins. This makes it easier for it to consume it. If the prey is too big it will retract them into its shell and wait for it to swim away once the paralyzing toxin wears off.
