I just want to point some thoughts on the different Lagiacrus species and how they could be actual subspecies.

The normal blue Lagia I believe is a more open ocean based hunter. It fights primarely in open water (We well know that it can go way beyond the water areas in the deserted islands) only going up on land to rest. Its deep blue scales blend PERFECTLY with the water of the open ocean providing optimal camo for ambushing Epioth. A search for food could lead it into the shallow flooded forest (Maybe it likes Gobul) or possibily to mate, but still they remain in the water most of the time.

White Lagia is more coastal built. It fights and hunts more on land than its blue counter part, only occasionly going into the water but not going out more than a mile or two away from shore. The extra spikes are to help it perform an electic field on land to fend off other large predators on the coast (Raths Jho, etc.). The white scales (like the blue Lagia) give it ample camo on sandy beaches and crystal clear waters along the shore for both ambush and hiding from Raths flying above.

Black/Navy Lagia is a more deep sea dewelling species. The only known location for these bad boys is the under water ruins but they could lurk in other deep sea environments. I have no idea what they live off of as a notable sorce of food is not know live that deep (but then again we know little of what lives in the depths of our own ocean). The dark coloring could for camo like the other two for hiding in the dark ocean depths or to aborb as much heat possible from the little light that reaches it because the ocean is significantly colder that deep down. The fact that its always charged could that it uses it as a source of light to see or as another way to heat its self up, but it would need to consume a large amount of food in order to do this. I wonder if members of this breed ever even walk on land.
