ABOUT AQUAFARIN

---

General Info:
Aquafarin are a semi-aquatic species, able to live both on land and in the water. (Except the deep sea Aquafarin who could only survive on land for a short amount of time.) They have large fins protruding from their lower backs and antenna from their foreheads. There are three different types, each living in their own habitat. Females of the species generally outnumber the males. It is not uncommon for them to be born to parents from two different places.
Their average height is about 6 to 7ft, but their weight varies because of the variety of fin sizes and tails. Though their diet mainly consists of fish and meats, they are omnivorous and can enjoy any kind of food.

Antenna:
Their antenna function in that they can sense living things with them. Like a sixth sense. They're mostly for hunting for fish/food, ect. but they can also sense other aquafarin nearby.
Deep sea Aquafarin rely on theirs the most, while others consider them more of a decoration.

Reproduction and younglings:
In finding a partner, each type of Aquafarin has their own customs. Female coastal aquafarin like to decorate their home with colorful sea life, (like starfish, pearls, oyster shells, ect.) to attract mates, deep sea aquafarin sing, and freshwater aquafarin like to bring their potential partners hand crafted gifts. Other than that, they court mostly like humans do.
They do have sexual intercourse (with human-like reproductive organs, though the male's penis is usually ribbed or studded with a knot), and the female's ovulation cycle is seasonal. They are fertile once in the spring, and once in the winter for a few days at a time. If successfully fertilized, the female gives birth to one egg which she watches over for a month until it hatches. The young are fairly helpless when newly hatched and need to be breastfed for another month. Because of the low chance of successful fertilization, if a couple wants to have a youngling they will frequently mate around the time of the female's ovulation.
Younglings are rare and treasured by all Aquafarin.

COASTAL- Most Aquafarin live along the tropical coastline, spending their time around tide pools and along the bottom of rocky sea-side cliffs. Their fins are tough and rigid for climbing around the sharp rocks, and their colors are bright and vivid for attracting the attention of potential partner. Their ears are smaller, like an otter's, and tails are shorter than other Aquafarin. They commonly have scales along their bellies and arms, as well as multicolored eyes.

Social: These tend to claim their own territory, either defending it like a prize, or welcoming potential partners. Most often when searching for a partner they will decorate their territory with a variety of colorful sea life, like starfish and oyster shells.

Enjoys: Relaxing in warm tide pools.

Precious possessions: Pearls.
