lava worms could be a good pred for the magma slugs if nothing reasonable gets formed on its own

Yeah but the thing with moon slimes is they're p much a backup solution atm. Unless there's a mega catastrophe they'll periodically sporulate the primary, but aren't particularly well adapted for it They're a good primary producer for now, a lot like the magsnail. They should at least be able to start up an alternate biosphere on the secondary, even if it's not really the best place to grow life

if magmaworms had some kind of extensible tongue they could eat better, but also woudn't be so mobile they could rampage across the planet

I feel like almost all of these lifeforms are entirely too advanced if we're starting from scratch lol

Seems like nippers could spread corals asexually, like spreading plants via cuttings Or just totally gently caress corals up big time

Well, for the secondary, slimes that incorporate rocks or crystal shards into their tissues will be able to form a mineral sclerite framework that should allow them to move around the surface instead of being permanently rooted. This would take a lot of energy though, they might have to start eating other slimes. two birds with one stone for the primary as well. Prune crabs will instead use their feathery pincers to filter stank emissions at the source, becoming stationary as adults and remaining mobile while juveniles. Juvies still need coral nests so everything will work out fine with no possibility for any of this to go sideways i'm sure major changes in atmospheric composition will not negatively affect flying organisms

Plus life forms that absorb stank as their food will not even have to avoid predators because of the concentrated rankness in their tissues so they no longer even need mobility. drat this is one of the best, easiest jobs I've ever had

If they have imperfect digestion they could simply poo poo viable spores they ate Also flying sphereoops that piss sulfur rich fluids to the land below would turbo charge weathering of rocks and alter the atmosphere pretty quick I bet This has been today's poo poo and piss post, thank you

Flora eh? How about muckwort which can tolerate salinity and high mineral content, and a fernuloid which should be able to develop woody branches pretty easy. I guess either could, eventually. We need a solid arthropod for a grazer, something like a pill bug or millipede. A little squishy but not TOO squishy. For a pred those bears need an out, just in case. I bet some could evolve to hide in worts until it's time to strike.

Ice caps are potentially incredible life reservoirs for unusual forms, they might end up concentrating huge amounts of materials over the eons, depending on ocean currents. The underside could be an excellent place for plants and animals to take root

we need a good solid Titanic Lifeform to be our wild card. Perhaps a really powerful spore tree that has a mobile phase to its lifecycle. An enormous nomadic tree which can bring some of the things it needs to flourish along for the ride. If it's big enough it would affect the local weather whenever it passes. e: and if it's big enough it could go well out off shore a lil, dragging it's habitat along to some foreign area SniperWoreConverse fucked around with this message at 20:10 on Nov 16, 2021 |
