The '''marinovermes microplaque'' has replaced its ancestor the [[microplaque]] in the seas, and lives mostly on finworms and gilltails beaks and chitin teeth. Like its ancestor, it's growing into large colonies covering the surface of the teeth and gums in a clear "biofilm". It eats not only the left over food materials in the mouth but will absorb the chitin of the teeth and beaks themselves, and with it and the salt from the sea, it will builds small blocks to help it hold on to the teeth. This can lead to gum disease and tooth decay in its host, and beak holes in [[beakworm]]s |
