It has 6 black spikes on its abdomen, with 3 on each side. It possesses 10 claw-like teeth that chomp the player when attacking.+ +## Behavior+ +Sandspears are commonly seen drifting at a slow pace at the bottom of caves or the seabed. The Sandspear is hostile and will attack players when approached. This triggers a cutscene similar to those of larger predators.+ +They can be seen burrowing into the ground, leaving only their teeth and a plant-like lure exposed, where they wait to ambush prey. This behavior is similar to the Spikey Trap of 4546B's Sector Zero. A burrowed Sandspear will get startled by light, come out, and swim away a short distance.+ +## Databank Entry+ +*   **Source:** Scan a Sandspear+*   **Entry:** DATABANK ENTRY COMING SOON+ +## Gallery+ +![A Sandspear baiting its prey](wiki-images/9e/9e7c3aea6efe3084c4e13fd7eff45114.png)+*A Sandspear baiting its prey*+ +![The Sandspear's initial concept art created for Subnautica: Below Zero](wiki-images/0d/0d64279a7fffbe6617af9b81f3d789f9.webp)+*The Sandspear's initial concept art created for Subnautica: Below Zero*+ +## Trivia+ +*   The Sandspear was initially proposed as a creature design for *Subnautica: Below Zero*.+*   The Sandspear somewhat resembles an antlion in looks (mandibles) and certain behaviors shared with pit-building antlions.
