Features

The Aquatic Biome features a few islands whose contents largely depend on how deep they are located beneath the surface. The top-most, surface-level island will have some Dirt and Sand. The island surrounding the Cool Slush Geyser will initially be frozen, with Ice and Crushed Ice surrounding it, but it will quickly melt as the 40-50 degree water encroaches in on the island.

At the bottom, there is a large cavernous area with no water and instead a lot of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide.

There will also be a single island with Sandstone, Mafic Rock, and Oxylite somewhere in the middle of the Biome.

Finally, some versions of this biome will also have a small Sandstone island with a bit of Algae. It may also have an Arbor Tree.
