"It is virtually worthless in terms of both power and speed. It is the most weak and pathetic Pokémon in the world."

Don't tame near water or it will drown

Strongest crature of ark. Giganotosaurs and t rexes are extinct because they were weak. This thing is alive still.

Coelacanths take up spawn points for other river-swelling creatures, so if you are having trouble finding otters and spinosaurs, kill some fish.

It’s a harmless fish and if you die to it then ark is not the game for you

These are the most violent creature in game. You need at least 3 people, 10 Gigas max level, a platform quetzal, with cannon balls about 250 minimum. A couple rex's hopefully max level health. Now build a simple trap out of metal spikes. Now find one of these beasts, very carefully line up your Gigas, and rex's. These are sacrifices for the Coelacanth to eat while you shoot carefully from your queztal, have the other people shoot as well. Finally feed the beast kibble.

Coelacanth the water type pokemon, known for it's small size and outstanding power this pokemon can destroy any creature in its path by launching like a torpedo and exploding on contact, considered to be a WMD by the Canadian and US military

Unfortunately, you cannot craft fish baskets on mobile. I am sorry fellow mobile players. I reached level 100 and its is still not there.

Killed my trex level 319. I tried to get revenge with my 2 gigas but they 1 shot them. They seem to have stronger attack then the king titan. Watch out, they come in packs.

Find it in the river, kill it and there you go, drag its dead corps around and enjoy :) ( until it decomposes )

Tamable using fish baskets from aberration.

105 points   🥚 Taming & KO   Sep 28, 2021   Report

So how to really tame it get a fish basket then find one you like then put the fishing basket in front of it then when it gets close press capture fish don't know why people keep lieing about how to tame it.

33 points   🥚 Taming & KO   Mar 22, 2024   Report

You can feed them, I repeat you can feed them! All you have to do is kill a few fish and put the fish meat in their inventory the same goes with the Piranha and Sabertooth Salmon. Also side note you can drag any food item (dead animal) and drop it in front of the Piranha’s and they’ll eat it.

Hope this helps!
