Translations:Codex: Leyak/18/en

Leyaks require a steady supply of hydration rich in several key nutrients. On Mome, leyaks subsist almost exclusively on yukkoths for nourishment, but on other planets will seek out any nutrient-rich fluids, often relying on sexual fluids or saliva from other species. A sustainable meal (necessary to retain sapience) for a leyak is usually a cup of yukkoth jelly per day, which is consumed all at once, followed by a day-long period of digestion. Leyaks off-world have a more difficult time, and usually consume higher volumes and greater weights of fluids in order to achieve the nourishment they need.
