Hm, no useful frog DNA? Unlucky roll?

Anyway, time to rule the pond and I propose a safe route this time. Let's prepare for a grand attack next day

1) Lay 400 antfish eggs, somewhere in the weed
2) Antfishs guard eggs
3) Carp eats weed to restore lost energy\nutrients but stays close to the eggs, and helps if antfishs attacked by something serious


Hopefully, next day with 500 antfish  escorts we may start a huge hunt on other fishes

You lay 400 antfish eggs. Most of them 'll probably hatch, especially with the antfish looking over them. However a large fish might still harm them if the antfish couldn't take it down fast enough. You then go and eat some weeds in order to make up for the lost energy and biomass, as your are quite famished. To your suprise you also find some small water fishes, which you eat. Their Dna renders nothing of use.

However, this recent expansion in size has certainly affected your abilities a bit, and you feel capable of new feats.((Ie, new ability time)). The antfish will hatch in 3 turns.

B. Eat weeds: Low energy return.  +-Safe
C. Attack large fish. High risk, high gain
D. Look at the bottom of the pool for burrowed animals like frogs and such. (Energy intensive, might gain nothing)

Eat more weeds, grow larger, store energy

Special ability:
Enhanched DNA assimilation

[Mr. Palau]

Action:

So 2 votes for enhanced assimilation and 2 for enhanced modification.

[killerhellhound]

thanks had thought everyone wanted enhanced modifacation because what can enhanced assimilation do

[10ebbor10]

1. Enhanced DNA modification: (Allows the  mutation of DNA fragments into other things. The further the thing you want stands from the things you have to lower the succes chances)
2. Enhanced DNA assimilation: Increases assimilation speed and retrieval chances

I need a tie breaker

Action:

Eat more weeds, grow larger, store energy

+1

For ability I say
Enhanced DNA Modification.

[Urist McDwarfFortress]

+1 for DNA modification

You decide to eat some more weeds to offset the biomasss and energy loss. The antfish will hatch in 2 turns. Nothing much interesting happens.

Hmmm, would it be too advanced for our current DNA modification skills?

Grow 20 chitinous spikes all over the body (3-5 cm long) using modified ant  carapace DNAs

that will help in future fights with other fishes, and if something big will try to swallow us it will have problems

Definitively possible. Might use some energy though.
