"and to respond accordingly." (and respond accordingly)
What sorts of habitats tend to cause great environment stress? Streams that mostly dry up at certain times of the year, perhaps? Are there certain microbes they don't eat, or generally prefer or eat most commonly? Do they have contractile vacuoles to expel excess water in freshwater, as real-life amoebas andciliates do?

Is the name inspired by Broly from Dragon Ball Z?

edited the grammar mistake.

Yeah I imagine streams that dry up at certain times of years would put environmental stress of Bruhlios, as well as areas with fluctuating temperatures throughout the year.

No not really, they are mainly generalists who will try anything once, though there are also species that specialists for certain types of microbes but its quite variable.

Hm, that makes sense, i'll add in the contractile vacuoles bit.

Nope, your not even close to what the name references. Though you probably wouldn't get it anyway since you don't really use discord and the thing Bruhlios reference is something on discord.

@Coolsteph

If you're wondering, it's a reference to the "Bruhs", an organism from 2s2t (which is basically a joke project I made in discord intending to host intentionally poorly made organisms (but which became a semi-serious project in its own right)). They were made by Oofle (who you also probably don't know of).

I have, in fact, heard of Oofle. For example, I've given feedback on Oofle's submission of Sruglettes. I go through organism submissions frequently and thoroughly enough I'm almost certainly aware of anyone who posts in more than five threads. I also am aware of the newest-member information at the bottom of the forum.

The instant I saw your response that I had guessed incorrectly, I immediately had the idea to make a descendant of this, the "Brollios", loosely inspired by Broly. Perhaps I'll make them pathogens. A quick check does show there is one species of ciliate pathogenic in humans, which I might use as inspiration.
