The saltlake uktank split from its ancestor in the Ovi Salt Lake and migrated to the Ovi Salt Marsh as well. It has changed its diet and now feeds solely on the violetglobes in the water. It has become smaller yet thicker skinned and its shell has slightly decreased in size because it barely spends anytime outside of the water. It mates and feeds underwater and usually stays in shallow waters. Its arm has evolved to better grip the violetglobes and brings them closer to its ring mouth. It can still communicate using its tubes by long howls which are picked out through its primitive ear-shell on its forehead.
When winter comes and the lakes and marshes freeze over and there is no flow of water that brings the violetglobes in abundant the saltlake uktank buries itself completely under the wet soil in the bottom of the lake and hibernate with its shell sticking out.
