"congo-tingos" Is the name supposed to be hyphenated or not? "secrets" Secretes. Why is there an asterisk for "external shell"? If it's a small ectotherm living in an environment with harsh winters, cold weather adaptations are worth mentioning.

Fixed the typo and the Asterixes (?)
May add a shallow burrowing adaptation, where the congo-line huddles together.

Hm, I think for respiration you should just do this

Respiration: Passive (Surface Capillaries)

No need to mention oxygen

In terms of diet, would any of the genus groups be potential prey? Things such as Vermees or Neuks and stuff like that.

I'd think Oxygen should be included, since not everything needs Oxygen necessarily.

These guys have few prey preferences, so yes to any genus that's normally small enough to be mobbed by these guys!

I like these guys.

I'm curious about Eggs & Larvae being listed separately in the diet though, I'd think they would be listed in parenthesis after the name of the species they belong to. Respiration including oxygen is odd but I don't think its necessarily wrong, though I don't know about having the hearts listed there, I'd think those are part of the circulatory system unless something strange is going on here.

“The fraboohorn have returned”. This would flow better with a comma after “fraboohorn”.
“Shell & horn”: “shell and horn”.

Otherwise, it seems sound.
