Ancestor:Descendants:

Evolved from mancerxia amphaflorapod, the fan plent has developed huge fan-like "leaves." Its four tentacles now have the ability to draw nutrients and water right out from the ground. There are now two sexes. When it's time to reproduce, they slowly crawl over the ground until they are in the water. Both sexes release their genetic material into the water and hope for the best. It's up to the new offspring to make it from there. The offspring start out as filter feeders.
