Thanks for reading. I'm Lilly and I do these tips every week
I found a small deserted island. nothing spawns on it. With my Argentavis I've been picking up snails then dropping them in my boat then letting them out on the island and they just wander around the island and they never leave and I just pick up the paste without taming. If you put enough of them on the island you get a decent amount of paste pretty quick.
Achatina taming generally requires one cake for every five levels, meaning if you want to be resource-conserving, you may want to consider taming a lower level one as opposed to high levels. They also reduce the spoil of organic polymer by 50%, acting as a natural refrigerator for it. It will not last forever, but it does increase its shelf-life. It only ever eats cakes, and nothing else. Bit of a PiTA in that regard but food drain is slow and by the time its hungry you should have more cakes, depending on where you are in terms of gameplay.
For Mobile players!!
According to Fandom: Achatina in ARK: Survival Evolved Mobile drop AnglerGel. This is due to the fact that Mobile wasn't originally planned to have an ocean.
***Tested it out after searching for angler fish to no avail. Found a snail yesterday and got away with some angler gel, now I can make Therizinosaurus kibble :)
