What do you call something that lives full-time in water, but walks?

I mean like walking underneath the water. Kind of like a crab, but with real “feet” and eats other fish, not bacteria and stuff…

Alligators or Crocs are amphibious… as in they can live on both land and in water… I’m talking full-time under water living, like a fish…

Except that fish don’t walk on the bottom of the ocean, of course.

Fishsticks live all their life in the water.
Then they walk to your grocery store.

That’s a tough one. Dragonfly larva eat fish and walk under water. Also some shrimp and crustaceans such as lobster. I’ll go with lobster.

Actually I have a character in my book that lives (and breathes) entirely underwater, but he has legs and feet much like we do. Did I just invent a new magical creature, or does something like this already have a name?

well if he also talks then he’s fictional. Doesn’t it say what the character in your book is, or is it just some magical underwater man? He could be a lobster. (rock lobster) He was in a jam…. He was in a giant claaaam!

I had to invent a name for him. I can’t tell y’all what that is, because of the repercussions (someone might steal it).
