Ancestor:Descendants:

Due to the fact that the tentacled urphish weren't being under pressure from predators, offshoot species could evolve. One of these were the sunlight urphish, they hunt in packs of 3-4 individuals, each one of them grabbing their prey with their spiked tentacles and piercing them with their horn, injecting an acidic compound and then sucking out the liquefied internal organs. They have migrated to the sunlight zone and their shell has gained additional segments for better protection.
