The world of euu - Eelkim

Eelkim's are small carnivorous creatures. Their most distinct trait is their flower-like cartilaginous structure circulating their mouth. Instead of teeth, Ellkims have tentacles so that when the prey stands on their tongue, they will retract it, and the tentacles won't let the prey escape. This creature has a translucent glowing membrane that glows even more during mating seasons. The male will flow the veil like a dance, and If the rhythm matches the female glowing pattern, It stabilizes the connection between the pair. Eelkims have an acid stored in their upper belly. When threatened, they spit a yellow acid with a strong odor, capable of causing severe skin burns.
