It's in the book Asimov's Mysteries, the title of the story is Pâté de Foie Gras.
I'm sure it's available in other collections as well, but I have it in this book.
I agree, it's a fun story! :-)

I wonder if in a living metal crystallisation processes would not be
essential.
I am speechless about the high standards of your creations.

Yes, I think too that that is the core truth of the matter.

Frightening - a civilisation born near the surface of a neutron star...
If such species would come to earth, I can imagine every chemistry possible and
some new ones too. Materials with every color, even a metallic "gas" with
densities much higher than 40 g/ml or higher.
Perhaps this is the "solution" - individuals as mini neutron stars, interacting
with each other and building structures via electron transfer.
This gives me new ideas - thank you!
Norbert

At least temporarily for structural purposes like shells, bones and teeth.

I used "Structure Synth" to create the structures containing only boxews and
spheres.
Since I use it since a few weaks, my own input to create the structures isn't
really high...
Here are some more Structure Synth examples -

I think so. Not the life that you described but life.
