Saltuna

The saltuna (Salmonidae salinis) is an aquatic creature native to Monarch. They are commonly cultivated as a food source, being used to produce various products around the system.
==Biology==
Saltuna are fish that have been cultivated by human colonists on Monarch, the oceans of which they are native to. During mating season, they swim upstream to breed, before dying after reproduction due to being semelparous. Following death, their remains float towards the top of the water body, where they are harvested.Saltuna (Salmonidae Salinis)
==Background==
Although native to Monarch, Spacer's Choice transplanted Saltuna to Terra 2 in an effort to compete in the market but have met with limited success due to the species poor adaptation to the planet’s ecology. Saltuna is the primary industry of Monarch Stellar Industries towns, such as Stellar Bay, however due to Hazard Clause they are unable to legally export any of their product. Saltuna is used to support the growth of several Spacer's Choice colonies and towns such as Edgewater in the Emerald Vale, opening up canneries and other industrial factories to process the fish components for their specific uses. These towns have been dependant on the saltuna industry due to oversight of Spacer's Choice.
