Descended from Bulbus aciecrescus of Zone 14, Bulbus salmacidus has been able to adapt to Zone 10 thanks to some mutations that make its cells hold in more salt to help with osmosis in the brackish zone and thanks to the overall lack of producer competition in that zone. Although Aquaplortatus dottus does grow in Zone 10, it grows deeper in than the depths that Bulbus aciecrescus were adapted to. Bulbus salmacidus is still highly dependent on sunlight and can grow no deeper than three meters (3 m) in depth.
The bulb is still fifteen centimeters (15 cm) in diameter but the stem can grow to twenty-five centimeters (25 cm) as opposed to twenty centimeters (20 cm) as there are less strong currents regulating its growth and there is more available water to grow in. The roots of Bulbus salmacidus are found growing more flat out and radiate as the bay floor is flatter in many areas than the former rivers its ancestors grew in.
Bulbus salmacidus can grow as soon as three (3) weeks or as long as six (6) weeks depending on the amount of sunlight in which it is growing in. Seeds grow on the tendrils and will gradually loosen with age and will sink to the sediment, after which new polyphs are grown. They may be carried by slight currents which help to spread them into suitable locations for growth while the parent polyphs still stay up.
