The migrating glowsnapper split from its ancestor the glowsnapper. Some tadpoles made their way out of Drake Water Table and into Yokto Mountain Lake. There they evolved pigment to protect them from the sunlight and adapted to eat the pioneer twinkiirobranch, since it was the only food around. As they grew they no longer could sustain themselves on such small food and then made their way down Yokto Polar River and out to Bumpy Polar Coast where there was an abundance of food to eat. The tadpoles look much like their distant ancestor the volox carpotesta luceremundare and are only around 4 cm long.

When the adults reach sexual maturity will swim their way up stream, mate, lay their frog-like eggs and then die. The males will attract females by flashing their bioluminescent spots. Like their ancestors the males grow tail spikes and ridged backs. The males will battle each other by thrashing their tails, clawing, and biting each other. Once the eggs hatch they will feed on the pioneer twinkiirobranch who's parents dead bodies helped fertilize the soil for it to grow in.

While the males do express sexual dimorphism when they are ready to mate they look much like the females for most of their adult life. It takes them around 5 years to reach sexual maturity. Meanwhile they look and live much like the females. However all adults are herbivores now and will feed on crystal flora when they are too large to feed on twinkiiros anymore.
