The Fusion Feeder is a Hardmode enemy which spawns in the Desert Astral Infection biome. It is the Astral variant of Sand Shark, although unlike Sand Sharks it is unable to swim freely through blocks nor lunge at the player through them. Instead, it crawls along the tops of blocks or submerges shallowly, about 1 block deep, to approach the player. It is able to swim and lunge at the player if it is within a body of water. While lunging towards the player, it fires an 
Astral Meteor which is aimed towards the player.
Notes
- Killing Fusion Feeders will count toward spawning the Great Sand Shark after Plantera has been defeated.
- This is also applied in the Get fixed boi seed.
Trivia
- The
Bestiary entry for the Fusion Feeder: "Bloated with mana, the immense amount of magical power has dulled the instincts of these former sand sharks, their movements now slow and sluggish. Their need for food has been permanently sated, and they now thirst only for distant stars."
