Virus Slime
You were so sure that button was harmless ...

Slimeology: These slimes have a random chance of appearing whenever you use the Slime Science Machine to create something. They appear to have code rolling over their body.
Diet: Fruit
Favorite Food: Cyberwi (a mechanical kiwi)
Rancher Risks: These slimes will cause any technology (excluding Decorations) to malfunction. If more than 10 are put in a coral together they can even cause the coral itself to malfunction. Largos can be made without the other slime eating one of their plorts, but rather just being too close to another slime, making it easy for a Virus Slime to take over a ranch.
Plortonics: These plorts are often sold on the black market to help hackers, but they're also used to develop better computer security.

Cyber Slime
I'm sure they won't take over the world

Slimeology: These slimes have a random chance of appearing whenever you use the Slime Science Machine to create something. They seem to be a cyborg slimes. They often improve the workings of nearby technology (lowering time for extractors, increasing the likelihood of certain slimes with gordo snares, etc).
Diet: Fruit
Favorite Food: Cyberwi
Rancher Risks: Largos can be made without the other slime eating one of their plorts, but rather just being too close to another slime, making it easy for a Cyber Slime to take over a ranch.
Plortonics: Their plorts are used to develop high-tech machines and AI.

Nice idea.

It's a good idea, but try adding a bit more detail to it.

Not bad, but I'd recommend that you make it more of a "Cyber Slime" instead of a virus, and perhaps change its behaviors and tendencies to be less destructive to Slime Science equipment. That aside, this would actually seem to be a good addition to the devs' planned 1.3.0 update, Viktor's Experimental. (really excited for that btw)

I like the idea of a Cyber Slime, maybe to counteract the Virus Slime, rather than replace it?

i like the idea although I do't think that they both should favor the cyborwi because no 2 slimes in SR have the same favorite food
