Fiddling with my ecosystem (new run)

• Drop some balloon bugs from the Desert Terrarium into the Norn Terrarium.

The balloon bug seems to take great joy in floating around in the hot air currents created by the volcano. It also has the unique property of being an excellent food for the stickletrout in the Norn Terrarium, which otherwise die out by predation from the kingfisher. The stickletrout seem incapable of eating the balloon bug, but gain nourishment from it all the same.

Go to Comms Room and inject Awkwood Creeper (C3 version). This places the plant in both the Norn Mesa and Jungle. It is stated to be a source for "a good range of nutrients."

Go to Comms Room and inject Chili Pepper Pot (C3 version). This creates a potted plant, but also places a stationary copy of the plant in the Jungle, providing a source of protein and Vitamin C.

Gather Bramboo Berries from the Norn Mesa and plant them the desert, as a source of protein.

...I think bamboo went extinct in the Norn Meso this run.

EDIT: Thank god, they start growing back on the background layer if they've been depleted for too long.
