The sun swarmer split from its ancestor. They are slightly bigger, about 0.75 cm long. It forms massive schools containing billions of individuals that float on the currents. Their fins have turn backwards to help with course correction. They only moving to escape predators and reproduce. They use their massive numbers to stir up the necessary nutrients from the sea and lake beds, which they diffuse through their skin. They die after reproducing, because it takes too much energy. They are an important source of food to many creatures. They are found in all the waters of Jujubee, and in all the salt lakes and salt marshes connecting to the ocean.
