For other instances, with large creatures, like Reefbacks, the Floaters will greatly hinder the latter's movements.ĭespite their small size, the Floater's ability to stick to any surface and its high buoyancy makes it a trouble for both the Seamoth and the Cyclops. In some cases, this will kill the creature. If released close to another creature, the Floater will home in on the creature and attach itself to it, making the creature partly or completely immobile and dragging it towards the surface. If released in open water, they will quickly float to the surface.
