Apex Shrimp - Tumblr Posts

carola, more commonly called an apex shrimp, are large hypercarnivorous generally herbivorous omnivore, these large crustaceans are fast and have almost hemispheric tail which helps them push water and steer very fast, they can see in full colour vision, they have razor sharp "teeth" which are extensions from their shells which all crustaceans have and derive their teeth from, they have canine like teeth on the insides of their mouths which go through their oesophagus until the stomach, these teeth will grind up the food they ate into easily digestible pieces, their razor teeth also assist in detaching plant parts from their stems to eat them, though they are mostly used for tearing flesh from their prey and causing general harm to them to slow them down, they will hunt almost every animal in the ocean, though arent the tallest, they hunt false plants, snow rays, bird whales, fan fins, pollen shrimp, and even unintentionally orbiting nurses, though that is only because theyre on the animals they eat, they will drift aimlessly throughout the ocean during times where they need to rest, eating easy prey or plants during this time, when they see bigger prey they will immediately use their conserved energy to kill them, they arent very territorial and are willing to coexist with other carola as long as they dont try to eat their food, though that rule doesnt apply to their children who will orbit around them and eat food they hunt for them and will eat plants, though when they reach maturity they are no longer given the treatment and will be killed if they attempt to eat their parents food, if you have any questions regarding this shrimp please dont be afraid to ask
