 ===== Overview =====
-The Arlian Sunfish is a resilient, schooling fish native to [[lake_arla|Lake Arla]], at the border between [[asari|Asari]], the Eastern Equatorial Section of the [[habitual_belt|Habitual Belt]], and the [[desert_side|Desert Side]] of [[the_planet_voi_700_d|VOI 700 D]]. Adapted to the intense heat and fluctuating conditions of the lake’s western shores, this species has developed remarkable thermotolerance, allowing it to thrive in waters that would be uninhabitable for most aquatic life.

 It plays a crucial role in Lake Arla’s ecosystem, serving as both a primary food source for larger predators like the [[arawi|Arawi]] or the [[desert_stalker|Desert Stalker]] and a regulator of insect populations.

   * **Mating Rituals:** Males display elaborate synchronized movements and rapid color shifts to attract females.
   * **Spawning Locations:** Preferred in the warmer shallows of Lake Arla, where eggs develop rapidly.
   * **Monogamy vs. Promiscuity:** Unlike some fish species, the Arlian Sunfish follows a promiscuous reproductive strategy, where both males and females mate with multiple partners to ensure genetic diversity.
+===== Exohuman Usage =====
+During the [[beta_age|Beta Age]], the Arlian Sunfish was one of the primary targets of the fishing industry at [[arla_town|Arla Town]]. Its abundance, size, and relatively mild flavor made it a staple catch, alongside other species of Lake Arla. Sunfish schools were netted in large quantities, cleaned at the [[funkenberg_fish_factory|Funkenberg Fish Factory]], and either preserved in salt barrels or smoked in small huts before being distributed to other settlements of the [[free_state_of_settlers|Free State of Settlers]].
+Settlers valued the firm, white meat of the legs and body alike, noting its adaptability for stews, salted rations, and dried provisions. While practi
