What a fun beast

Do the adults eat the newly metamorph young if given a chance? Given they're only half size and all.

Already answered in the Discord but:
They would probably recognize young metamorphosed kurtbacks as competitors instead of prey by virtue of the special tail and size (small, but still bigger than any teacup sauce).

Should I work my last clarification into the description?

I think so, it sounds like an important tidbit

Edited into the last paragraph.

Just for a very quick check: I've never seen "mesocarnivore" as a dietary option. "Omnivore" would be better, with "mesocarnivore" specified in the description.

Huh, I could have sworn I used it for Beta at some point, but I didn't find any search queries for it. I'll edit.
