Does not harvest silica clams in genesis. WC please fix.

If you want to imprint remember they can't get out of water, so to bypass the take oxygen option you can cryo it or use DS to reset what it wants. You will ask it to follow you (always underwater) a couple dozens of meters and cryo it again ultil it gets the +imprint from "wants to go on a walk with you" since that one doesn't require any interaction other than a whistle. I use a baryonyx to clear the place I'm in, set it to aggressive, to follow me, and objective distance=long.

Awesome for someone who hasn't pumped oxygen and wants to hit deep sea loot crates and get pearls. Tamed a 145 with prime and pumped speed and stam. Was my favorite underwater tame hands down. You still want to bring flippers though.

You can pick them up with Pt so you can put them in a box

Poor man's scuba suit as you can use oxygen produced by him.

You can ride the diplocaulus if you bring it under water aswell as not need to get off him to get oxygen while on him

They are my favorite. When diving make sure they are on follow low and passive or you can get stuck on very deep water

This thing lets you BREATHE AIR

Who ever said that they have to breed on land, this is not true. I bred mine in water and it was just fine. Idk bout pc, cuz I’m on mobile.

Actually, you can ride this on mobile just only on water the second you leave water it will dismount

Amazing for gathering black pearls and tip DONT FIGHT WITH THESE THINGS THERE WEEEEAK

Great for beginners, I have 410 lvl diplo we cruise around the see with high mobility, only downside is dont get cornered or overrun.

Outside of not having saddle armor and being harder to tame, this little guy is essentially an upgraded Ichthyosaur. They give you oxygen like a scuba tank (abd available much much earlier) and are the best creatures for harvesting trilobites. Just don't expect much in the way of combat capability. You can't shoot off the back though, which reduces their usability for underwater taming. Perfect for resource cave runs. As they are amphibious you can take them over land to places other aquatics can't reach, although you will want a flyer to carry them because of how slow they are. Even a Pteranodon will work.

They're also skrunkly little salamanders, it's impossible not to love them.

Pretty good for travel. Very fast water mount.

I tamed this thing and it turns out I couldn’t ride a Diplocaulus underwater 😭😭😭My poor argy lost so many health grinding raw prime meat for it😭😭

If you use lazurus chowder it will slow how fast you take oxygen. 1000 oxygen will last about 10 min while chowder is in use. Very fast and small, and if you pack chowder a very good Diplo can last hours before needing to surface.

I found that pairing this fella with a pteranodon is very useful. You can pick it up and fly into the water, which dismounts you and drops it. You can immediately get on the diplocaulus once in the water, and when you want to leave the water you can jump back on the pteranodon and pick it up.

This will help you tame many creatures of the sea but they’ll be chased by everything the can lure plesiosaur and Mosa to top of surface

So they can’t attack

Best black pearl harvester on the island go kill trilobites by herbivore island

Can depend straight down slightly at a angle similar to the frog but not completely straight down, very useful to farm with combined with a dunk in a cryo, quick down and up and metallic treasure ahoy!
