The parasite crastrum replaced its ancestor. The parasite crastrum has got a very different life cycle that includes two phases. The young crastrum attatch to a rock where it photosyntesise to get energy and grow. When it is fully grown it uses the sharp spikes to pierce the skin of and attatch itself to any creature that comes close enough. This is when it enters phase 2. Now instead of using photosyntesis the Parasite Crastrum lives on the blood of the host, and the suction cups grow into spikes to defend the bloated body of the Crastrum. In phase 2 the Crastrum also starts budding, with the new crastrum growing in the center of the body. When the new crastrum is big enough it is detatched and swim of to find a rock to attatch to where it can photosyntesise again and the cycle starts all over again. Other than this the parasite crastrum is exactly like its ancestor.
