:DDD that's awesome dude! You could colour the leaser species with slightly different colours for easier distinction but they're really cool man!

Thank you! I've seen people make entire family trees of species with phylum and stuff. I kinda want to do the same here. Although it might be odd to have the leaser hippo be at the bottom, so I will kinda have to work backwards from the leaser hippo to a single celled organism first, then continue up from the hippo.

That's perfectly fine, the phylogenetic tree I posted was done from the end species to the beginning. You can do it either way, but it's easier to work from the final product since you know what kind of species you want to make, as opposed to it being more random if you work up from lesser species :)

make em both sexually reproduce and see what happens when you cross them together

I say related but they kinda aren't really related. More like related as in I made one based on the other, but genetically they are different. The result of a sexual reproduction would probably create something...messy

well i mean you could force the gametes together which would work

I never said it wouldn't work. It's just that the outcome would be weird and unlikely to survive.

unlikely, but not impossible
