[X] Some Blamps become darker in color, allowing them to absorb more light. This allows the Blamps to grow faster and reach a larger maximum size, as well as acquiring a thicker skin. This both makes it harder for vent Blamps to disrupt them and harder for Drekin or Harpoon Slina to break their skin. To encourage the spread of their much heavier shelled buds they are wrapped in fruiting bodies.

My variation of the heavier Blamp plan.

[X] Blamps develop an organ that stores some of the energy that they get from photosynthesis. They release it as an explosion when attacked by other predators. They have changed their color from green to bright red to indicate their dangerous and separate them from their relatives, the Blamps, Vent Blamps, and Cluster Blamps

[X] Some Blamps develop adhesive pads across their bodies, which allows them to stick to walls and ceilings without drifting away. This allows them to go to places the Slina can't follow and live in areas where they don't have to compete with other Blamps.

Thought of a evolution that wouldn't cause more competition to other Blamps. Basically, it sticks to surfaces like a frog or a gecko and rolls around as a form of locomotion.

[X] Some Slina started developing propulsion organs allowing them to quite literally shoot themselves into their prey at large speeds. This also allows them to move faster and make suprise strikes against prey that is faraway from them.

I wonder what will happen when normal Blamps die off

005 (Megablamp)

Megablamp
The many struggles of the Blamp cause a new breed of Blamps to be born, the Megablamps are massive their darker thicker skin gathering more light and defending them from other species' predation. These Megablamps are so large they are hard for other blamps or the winds around the facilities to move making them giants uncaring of the world below. Their fragile eyes are the only point that creatures can break through making them a challenging target for the Harpoon Slina and Drakin and impossible for the Slina to hunt. Their larger bodies mean they take up far more space on the edges of the ruins.

The cluster Blampsare pushed into the tighter spaces of the facilities where the Megablamps can not follow. Still, the Blamps find that their ideal territories are now dominated by the Megablamps whose massive size makes movement and light gathering more difficult for the Blamps. Few predators can hunt the Megablamps and so they quickly grow in population. The migration of the Cluster Blamps deeper into the facilities causes the Slina and Harpoon Slinato to follow in small numbers the Drekin do not follow as the Cluster Blamps are difficult and often unfulfilling prey.

We were pretty close last time, hopefully it will work this time

[X] The Drekins limbs Start secreting a sticky acid allowing multiple of them to grab onto a Mega Blaps and slowly work their way through their thick skin. This new hunting method means that the Drekins how to work together to force the Blaps to pop in a reasonable amount of time.

I'm not gonna go for an explosive blamp, at least not until there's another biome / it'd be an evo of the 2nd gen blamps.
I like the idea, but I don't want [ being killed by exploblamp ] pressures being added to every monster in the same biome, which is what I expect will happen due to the nature of collateral damage in derelict megastructures

Let them stick to the botton or the celling of the facilities without bottering the other Blamps.
