* TheComputerIsALyingBastard: Their Slimepedia entry claims they need a lot of maintenance and are a better fit for experienced Ranchers. In reality they are probably the most low-maintenance slimes in the game--just chuck them in a pond and they'll keep passively producing ports with zero additional input. The only caveat is that you can't chuck too many in one pond.



* {{Nerf}}: They used to be ''the'' most effective method of income despite their rareness. However, version 0.3.0 made it so that you can't have more than four of them in one pond.[[note]]They'll tolerate five slimes if you give them a Rubber Ducky.[[/note]] If you do they'll stop producing plorts.
