Ancestor:Descendants:

Splitting from its ancestor, the ray flat swarmers spread across the coasts of Darwin. It has grown 2x larger than its ancestor. Like its ancestor, it relies on photosynthesis more than other swarmers. It mostly swims slowly near the surface of the water and uses its large fins to catch sunlight. The downside of being so close to the surface is that they cannot see predators attacking from below. to counter this, they live in large groups, so if a predator attacks one of them, the others can quickly swim away while the predator is preoccupied. They will soon reform their group and keep traveling with one less member.
