The seacleaners are an essential part of the ecosystem in the waters of Sagan IV. It has adapted to feed only on dead organisms and dung. Unlike it's close relatives, this genus has lost it's ability to digest methane, instead searching the riverbeds and seafloor for rotting flesh, producing methane as a waste product. The seacleaners just swims through the ocean until it finds food. When no food is available, it will stop swimming and just float through the ocean until it will find food. In calm-mode it can survive for up to a year. This genus has replaced the seacleaner.
