Description
This only covers some of the Piscivultus species, there are many many more yet to be discovered.

All specimens listed are listed by their common names and are classified as follows:

Phylum: Allobranchia
Class: Piscivultus

13. Croc Pisce: these fresh water Pisce have a similar lifestyle to crocodiles, which they are named after. They have eyes situated directly on top of their head which constantly circle to search for prey. They wave their tongue, mimicking a red plant that some fish feed on, luring prey only to stun them with a slap of their fin, then swallow it whole. The blades on the tongue are saved for when large groups of these 2 meter long predators gather waiting for migrating herds. When a lone individual crosses the river, many Croc Pisces take down the animal with body slams then lash at it with their tongue. They have terrifying accuracy, aiming for arteries in the neck. When not attacking in groups, they lie in shallow water basking in the sun.

14. Aquatongue: an ocean dwelling herbivorous Pisce with the largest and heaviest tongue known to any Pisce. It works as a shovel, digging up plants from their roots and shaking them free of sand only to consume them whole. Aquatongues have a slow metabolism and are slow moving, making them ideal prey items. However, they are three meters long and weight as much as a horse.

15. S Pisce: hence its name, this is an extremely flexible Pisce and one of the best swimmers of Geb's ocean. It is capable of evading most predators and defensive parents. The S Pisce is a real "oviraptor", feeding mainly on the eggs of other Pisce. During mating seasons, groups of males can be found near beaches of the meteor islands performing underwater stunts and flashing their "flags" on their necks to impress females. S Pisces are closely related to other long necked pisces such as the Mint Icing (8) and Lemon Bagpipes (3).

16. Bulldog Pisce: an ambush predator that lives among the mangrove-like roots of trees that grow in the lagoons of the Great Northeast Swamp. They slowly drift in the water waiting to snag fish with their large tongues. The extensions in their mouths are not teeth, but parts of the tongue itself ready to spring forward and close onto prey like a pair of scissors. Bulldog Pisce are known to swim up rivers to reach spawn pools inland where they lay their eggs before returning to the ocean. They are also cannibalistic and often end up eating their own young, who must take refuge among the mangrove for several years.

17. Ganymede Pisce: named after the largest moon in the Solar System, this is a true giant. With a body structure growing up to 10 meters tall, they are the largest known Pisces. They live out in the open ocean near the surface, filter feeding daily. They live in small pods of about 4 individuals, usually 2 males with their females. During mating season, females trail behind them a basket of eggs which the male fertilize. The female drag the basket behind them until the young emerge. The juveniles then stay with the group filter feeding along them for protection and then leave to make their own groups after they matured. Notice the small spike on their backs. This shows that there was a time when Ganymedes were much smaller and needed protection from predators who used to be bigger than themselves.

18. Raisin Pisce: it's obvious how this fresh water creature got its name. Like flamingos on Earth, RPs get their color from the Pararthropods they eat which are also purple in color. They grow about as big as a human hand.

19. Ice Cutter Pisce: this predator lives in the cold waters surrounding the continent of Balnea, feeding on other Pisce and large animals who have crashed through thin ice. Despite their bulk and small flippers, the ICPs can swim at remarkable speeds and have excellent eyesight. Interestingly, they have two plate-like structures in their upper mouths, which are extensions of their skull. Their function is currently unknown. At first glance it may seem here that ICPs have no propulsion tube, but here it is shown closed. A few species can close and fold their tube to keep debris from entering their gills.

20. Clown Pisce: named after its infamous grin, this Pisce is only known from one specimen washed up on the shores of the Truncumque plateau. They are 2 meters long and have extremely long flippers compared to most other species. Nothing else is known about them.

21. Doberman Pisce: the deadliest predatory Pisce, it is restricted to warm waters where they hunt a wide variety of smaller Pisce and other aquatic life forms. Hunting in mated pairs, they have excellent eyesight, sense of smell and hearing. Like Sharks, they can detect blood from a remarkable distance. What makes them especially deadly is that these five meter long predators tend to swim up upstream and even climb waterfalls. This has led to violent attacks against Geb's natives, the Lacertacredos, on a few occasions. It's difficult to believe that they are related to the peaceful Blue Cheese Pisce. The sail on their back is confirmed to be used for regulating body heat when they're forced to hunt in colder waters during migration seasons. The most frightening fact is that they are not the dominant predators of Geb's oceans.
"I really wanted to make this predator appealing to young males. The best combination involve red eyes, black color and a sail similar to those found in Dimetrodons or Spinosaurs. They bigger they are, the better too. This is probably my personally favorite Piscivultus."

22. Great Slither Pisce: there are several species of Pisce with snake-like elongated bodies, but this one is the most well known and best studied. They are omnivores, feeding on small prey (including their eggs) and plants while swimming through the mangroves of the Great Northeast Swamp. At five meters in length, they are occasionally hunted by nomadic Lacertacredos for their rich flesh, but these are remarkably powerful Pisce that struggle ferociously to escape capture and the grasp of the natives. One slap of their leaf tail will leave painful bruises.
