Talk:Reefback/@comment-26303607-20150510011332

I like the Reefback and enjoy their company overhead (shadow cast) when I'm scavenging the ocean floor.... kinda reminds me of the Whale Shark.

As people have suggested below, perhaps adding a nano reef to their backs (coral, mushrooms, jeweled mushrooms, salt, form of camouflage from predators, etc). It would be ideal if you're building your base in those deep areas where there are no reefs (100M and beyond) and having a couple of Reefback's overhead to harvest from as you please.

Also, if they are attacked by a Reaper; why not make those nice long tentacles poisonous? This mother of the ocean (I'd personally nickname it that if it were to carry a reef on it's back) needs some sort of a deterant to make predators think twice.
