Shrimp’s Scrounge

Shrimp's Scrounge, or Scrounge is a unique kind of coral that grows in the oceans of Welt.
== Biology ==
Scrounge is a marine invertebrate that lives in reefs. They secrete calcium carbonate to form a hard skeleton at a faster rate than other corals in the right conditions. Scrounge is also an important food source for many organisms living in coral reefs, most notably the Antshrimp.
== Symbiosis with Antshrimp ==
Antshrimp seem to have a unique relationship with Scrounge, they farm it, build their nests and even farm cattle in cages made out of the coral. Antshrimp have specialized drones called Spongehands whose role in the colony is to carefully mould the coral into the needed shape. This is achieved by spongehands fanning currents towards their scrounge farms and harvesting the soft coral tissue and letting it set and harden.
