The seashard replaced its ancestor, the crystal seaweed, and spread across all the tropical and temperate coastlines of Glicker. Each crystal is made of hard photosythetic chitin, which has tiny holes in them in. These holes let in water and organic matter. Inside the red fungi-like interior consumes the organic matter. This same fungi-like material also makes up the "roots" of the flora and it can absorb needed nutrients and minerals from the soil. The same holes that let in food also let out tiny spores which float into the water and grow into new seashards. The crystals have become razor sharp which can easily cut or puncture any herbivore that tried to eat it. Unlike its relatives it is not poisonous and must rely on its spikes as defense.
