The badger aquacrystal split from its ancestor and moved to the Badger Limestone Sea Caves. There aren't lots of nutrients in the Badger Limestone Sea Caves, so it halved in size. The caves are also very dark, so badger aquacrystals can only photosynthesize at the entrances of the caves, but badger aquacrystals are common away from light since photosynthesis isn't their main diet but their main diet is microorganisms that dwell in the caves.
Like its ancestor, there are tiny holes in the hard, chitinous crystals it has on its body. These holes allow water and organic matter to enter its body. It has a red, fungal part of its body that digests any organic materials that enter its body. Its roots are also red, these roots absorb nutrients in the ground, but since there aren't many nutrients in the Badger Limestone Sea Caves, the roots rarely absorb nutrients and only anchor the badger aquacrystal to the ground. Future generations of the badger aquacrystal will absorb more nutrients with better roots but only when enough nutrients are available.
It reproduces asexually through spores, much like its ancestor. It lost its ancestor's poison since there are no herbivores in the Badger Limestone Sea Caves.
