Description

this animal is a pretty different type of amphibian salamander like creature from Pale Terram. They are amphibians that have duplicated organs, even double head, mouth and all, the only part that is not duplicated is the anus.
 those salamander like creatures lives in rivers and muddy places, where they attack to rocks covered with mold and moss and feeds of it by sucking and filtering with their mouths that are covered with fleshy fur, sometimes they might also latch to other creatures to feed of the dead skin cells. 
 The black stripes on their top are not simply stripes, it is actually a long visionpad, which means they have a vision angle of 360%, this allows them to spot predators and quickly hide under rocks and into the mud, and if the predator still get the being, they are slippery thanks to the viscous substance their soft rubbery skin produces, if the predator still goes through that, their blood contains bile, which not only makes it green blood, but also tastes awful, for a predator to eat one, they either must be desperate, or they cannot taste or simply does not mind that taste.
 they are hermaphrodites, containing both male and female genitalia, however they cannot fertilize themselves, they require another gemorlemis to do so, they wrap around each other to engage into mating, and both fertilized, they produce 15 eggs each, which they will spend 0/2 Inferus month( about an human 2/2 human month ) taking care, waving water on the eggs to keep oxygen flowing, rubbing them etc. However, sometimes other creatures ends up eating the eggs, since the parent doesn't really have much means to defend the eggs once the predator finds them in plant or rock orifices. they only take about 0.3 Inferus year( nearly a human year) to reach adulthood.
 Inferus does not eat them.
 They are passive animals and will run away from treats.
