I let the old one die, so let's try again fresh.

You cannot change your vote after voting.
You have to vote before you can see the results.

Open Ocean because cool things live in the ocean.

Look at this thing. Look at it:


Check out that Doofy fish. That Doofy fish comes from the ocean I rest my case.

Voted, I did
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

If given some option of 'Other', I would say "water absorption", whatever the technical term is called.

Basically, like the biological version of Atlantion, the hydroelectric-powered land I created, that's based underwater.

That's filter feeding.

Taking in water, straining out what you need, expunging it.

Did you know:

Certain species of sea slug can absorb the chloroplast of the plants they eat, keeping it in a a special layer between their skin? This allows them to photosynthesize on a limited scale.

For anyone who's on the fence here, I'd like to offer up another argument in favor of Filter Feeder.
