Sponge Slime
These slimes really suck... Up water!
Default Plort Value: 18

Favorite Food: Water plorts
Spawns: In water pools or covering jets of water coming out of the ground
Slimeology:
Sponge Slimes are squishy little guys with spongy textures. Like Puddle Slimes they absorb water but they can also eat Puddle plorts. They don't disappear if they are out of water and can be kept in corrals but you need to spray them with water if they get hungry. If you keep them in ponds you don't need to feed them, but they can drain a pond of water quickly if there are too many. They can be kept with Puddle Slimes but will eat their plorts. They cannot become largos and other Slimes will not eat their plorts.
Rancher risks:
Sponge Slimes are not harmful but since they can leave ponds if they don't have enough water they can escape a pond. They can also jump into other ponds that might house Puddle Slimes and eat all their plorts. It is advised to keep ponds with Sponge Slimes separate from ponds with Puddle slimes if you don't want their plorts eaten.
Plortonomics: Sponge plorts are used in towels, sponges, paper towels, rags, diapers, toilet paper, basically anything that is used to absorb/clean things. Sponge Plorts are extremely absorbent and Sponge plort products are more absorbent, last longer, and can absorb more than other products.
