The '''Crabsquid''' is a type of aggressive [[Life Forms|life form]] belonging to the [[fauna]] category. It can be found in the[[Blood Kelp Zone#Second Blood Kelp Zone| second Blood Kelp Zone]] and the [[Deep Grand Reef]].

== Appearance ==
The '''Crabsquid's''' main body has two layers; a translucent, bulbous sac resembling a comb jelly's body, and a shimmering, brown green body similar to that of a real life [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squid#Description squid's mantle], albeit being covered with an outer shell or exoskeleton.

The '''Crabsquid's''' head consists of two pairs of large blue eyes and an oddly shaped mandible below them.

The '''Crabsquid's''' ten limbs are brown-colored and smooth. Some of them have pointed tips, others have fins, and the two shortest ones near its mouth form a pair of comparably small pincers.
==Behavior==
The '''Crabsquid''' swims aimlessly around on its own, or moves slowly on the seabed with its limbs. Upon being approached, the creature will launch an attack, removing 40% of the player's healthbar. It can also be observed catching and eating smaller fauna.

Similiar to the [[Bone Shark]], the '''Crabsquid '''is attracted to light, and will follow certain light sources, meaning that it can be distracted using lights from the [[Cyclops]], [[Seamoth]], or [[Flare|Flares]].

If the player approaches the '''Crabsquid''' in the Seamoth within its line of sight, the creature will chase the submersible a short distance and attack, dealing 20% damage to the vehicle's health.

The '''Crabsquid '''frequently emits loud, echoing clicks for the purpose of echolocation.

The '''Crabsquid''' dislikes light, if light is shone at a '''Crabsquid''' they will retaliate with an EMP blast, temporarily disabling electronics, [[vehicles]] and [[Seabases|Seabase]] power. This makes it highly illogical to build near an area inhabited by '''Crabsquid'''.

This large predator can be found in deep waters, where it lurks amongst the blood kelp and membrain trees in search of prey.

* 10 limbs feature different appendages for swimming, walking and offensive behavior
* Feeds on small fish, which are identified in the murky waters through a combination of smell and light sensitivity
* Attraction to light sources suggests [[Jellyray|jellyrays]] and [[Spinefish|spinefish]] may be amongst its natural prey
* Aggressive when approached
* You are fucked.

Future Plans
* The '''Crabsquid''' will spawn when the player is outside the map, in open water.
* '''Crabsquid '''eggs will be implemented in the future.
* '''Crabsquids''' may spawn in the [[Lost River]] in future updates.

== Trivia ==
* The '''Crabsquid's''' outer covering for it's mantle resembles the body of a comb jellyfish.
* The sounds for the '''Crabsquid''' and it's blast attack are similar to the sounds and the blast attack for the MUTOs from the 2014 Godzilla movie.
