These are great beginner marine tames the only thing about these guys is that they have: #1 low health, #2 low weight, #3 horrible melee damage #4 in everything other than mobile they CAN agro other creatures, but just pump his stamina, weight, and movement speed and you have a super quick water tame.

I hope this was useful.

-JUST ANOTHER COMMON ARK PLAYER

It would be awesome if these guys could jump.

For mobile players these are a must have because nothing will attack you while riding these even if you attack them

These things are amazing like literally Op, its easy to tame and the best thing about it is its very fast, nothing attacks it yes! nothing even when i damage any creature it will only attack me once and then leave me alone and i could also just kill creature's easily after getring hit once only yeah... just dont get off your itchy and if you do everything will start attacking you even after you get on the itchy again so dont get off the itchy under water if your tryna collect oil just equip the pickaxe and you'll be able to mine while riding the itchy! which means your on god mode bec nothing is a threat to you.. i dont know about land creatures tho...

Why do MANTAS jump but these PRACTICALLY PREHISTORIC DOLPHINS don’t…..

👍🏻to change 🙂

Please don’t be fooled. All these people saying they won’t get attacked is a feature on MOBILE ONLY. Even on pc or console, there’s still good tames. While they’re not great harvesters and don’t have much health, food, or stamina, they're easily capable of outswimming everything in the ocean. Those stupid megalodons don’t stand a chance.

To the person who had a tame named Mini you know you could’ve just requested her in water you know? It is very useful for when you lost an animal.

These things are used for one thing and one thing only: speed. Invest it all in speed and nothing can hope to match you underwater. A good Dino to kite with

Not true. Icthys on mobile still are not attacked by anything in the ocean(unless u attack it). I tested it while taming a lv 80 mosa. Swam right next to it before I attacked. I still think icthys are the best underwater tame. Their fast, they have rider weaponry, and r perfect for taming plesiosaurs and mosas. Tamed easily, as they swim right up to u. They eat dodo kibble, and if u have 3-5 kibble, u can easily get one fast. (-like if this helps😁)
