they only eat fish when tamed. Mine lost almost all his hunger before i figured this out.
Baryonyx
The Baryonyx is a large crocodile-like predator. While it might lack in attack power, its ability to swim extremtly fast makes it a fierce opponent — especially with its ability to travel on both land and in water.

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Baryonyx in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If u see one doNOT go into water, it swims toward and smack ur @$$ of ur mount, and ur just so shocked u can’t move for a sec, then it DOES IT AGAIN HELPPPPP!!!
This Dino only eats fish meat so make sure to have some when taming this dino also Bolas don't work on this Dino
One of the best Dino’s in the game. Especially because they are good on land and water and easy to tame if you know what you’re doing they only eat fish tho but once you have one you are basically god. They are good for also taming Rex’s and Carnos and spinos since you…

Especially because they are good on land and water and easy to tame if you know what you’re doing they only eat fish tho but once you have one you are basically god. They are good for also taming Rex’s and Carnos and spinos since you can shoot from their back with a crossbow.
Me (lvl 20 something) and my raptor (lvl 40) encountered a baryonyx (lvl 5) I saw it quite often ( although a fair distance from my base) so decided to attempt to tame it, it was in the water so I went in to take a look, next thing I know, it was charging towards me, I tried…
Me (lvl 20 something) and my raptor (lvl 40) encountered a baryonyx (lvl 5) I saw it quite often ( although a fair distance from my base) so decided to attempt to tame it, it was in the water so I went in to take a look, next thing I know, it was charging towards me, I tried climbing onto my raptor but was stunned and I died, I spawned back at base and assumed my raptor would die, I ran back to get my stuff and there, in the water, was my raptor, alive, I quickly got my stuff and climbed on his back and ran off, what a legend. I am now sat here waiting for that baryonyx to finish taming! What an eventful day! And Ofc he will be called Barry 😂
Absolutely DO NOT Go Near These Things. Their EXTREMELY Fast, One Second Everything Is Fine, Next Second, There's A Demon Monster Breathing Down Your Neck. Like So Noobs Like Me Can See This.
Baryonyx are very useful in many ways!
U can stun anything in water and kill dangerous Dino’s
when u stun them!
They are also the best cave mount in the game!
They have long range and knock back!

They do extra damage to fish and when killing fish it heals them! Be careful in the lava cave because bats can push u into the lava instantly killing the bary!
Totally worth taming and don’t only spawn in swamps! They spawn along rivers too!
I have a way you can go super fast with these guys all you need to do is run and jump and as soon as you land jump again and just repeat. Btw it doesn't work going up even the slightest uphill but going down a slight down hill you can out run anything.
If you breed baryonyx a bunch you can get insane mutations on Melee my current baryonyx has 2100 melee damage and it can take on a Tek Rex no problem (it was level 74 and my bary is level 141)
Super easy to tame, but better than a Spino or Rex. Literally faster than a raptor, and swims pretty fast. Unlimited oxygen, super good stamina, stun attack (10 seconds), high damage, great jump, good weight. This thing is INSANE. I’d definitely recommend you keep it in your…
Super easy to tame, but better than a Spino or Rex. Literally faster than a raptor, and swims pretty fast. Unlimited oxygen, super good stamina, stun attack (10 seconds), high damage, great jump, good weight. This thing is INSANE. I’d definitely recommend you keep it in your arsenal. Water base defense especially. Great creature to have on your water platform saddles, as it can stun lock creatures and knock players off their mounts.
They’re the best caving Dino, but watch out for the lava cave and the volcano cave! My first one died to arthros and bats in the volcano cave
The baryonyx is a excellent cave dino they reck caves with ez so I recommend taming 1 if u r gonna go cave adventureing.
These guys are probably the best caving mount, they’re decently strong, have fast health regen, are small but still pretty tall to avoid arthros, are great swimmers and have no oxygen and can jump. They have an easy time hitting bats just be careful with your jumps in the…

They are super good at the cave of the hunter. My bary is in level 35 and i have completed it like 15 times. Good luck with the cave. (Watch a video aboat the artifact location)
A very, very good early tame. They are very good in water and are pretty fast and have low torpor (a few tranq arrows and they are down).
Avoid even in creative. If you get hit you can’t move. Also, trap it. It moves really fast.
Watch phlinger phoo and he will tell you why they are the best cave Dino
Feed them bio toxin to keep them asleep

Baryonix Survival Evolved
Hi hello and howdy! Im a console player here to make the ultimate survival and other tips. Now I have a 98 lvl baryonix. Here’s how I tamed him:
Remember: They CAN breath underwater.
Knockout: (Bola don’t work :)) I play genesis 2 so I would just fly in the air shooting tranq arrows like a noob but do find a high place and shoot. When it runs just go run at it shooting. I tamed mine underwater when I didn’t know it was a water Dino.
Use (for taming food): Raw fish meat, and raw prime fish meat (personally these are way better so you can keep track of the bary)
Fight off any Dino’s who would kill your sleeping bary
Wait all the time giving it food and any narcotics and berries.
I would say their torpidity for taming is in the middle of fast and slow
Name ideas!: name them after present day water rocks based on their color! (Mine was red so I named it after a coral)
Tysm for reading and sorry this was long
