General biology of the specie

They live in very deep and dark waters, which is why they developed the ability to communicate with others of their own kind through light signals generated by their apparent antennae with the help of bioluminescence and electricity techniques. Chinchou are very cheerful and playful, which is why they are easy to manipulate, but they can also have serious consequences. They normally live at the bottom of the sea but it is known that they can walk on dry land with their small legs, although it must be taken into account that they dehydrate very quickly so they cannot last long out of the water
