{{transcript|Its main offensive strategy is to launch the crystal it carries on its back. Otherwise, it's completely defenseless.
 
In most circumstances, it's a peaceful herbivore whose diet consists primarily of moss. When in danger, however, it wastes no time defending its territory by breaking small rocks and hurling them at the threat.
 
In order to ensure it has a steady supply of rocks with which to defend itself, it shares its habitat with Calcified Crushblat larvae so it can make use of the shells they cast off.|block=y}}
