When I first encountered this, I was out in the open sea for a very long time. I traveled a semi-far? way down below shallow water. I was looking for a mosasaur, so I could pin-point the location, and go back with arrows to tame it. Then, I saw something strange in the water, swimming mid-way up. I was confused, and said to myself, " What the heck is that ? ". So I swam with my basilo toward it. Turns out, it was passive. I can't really remember if it was coming at me or what, but I think it was passive. So , I saw that it was a dunkleo. Now that I had gotten close to it, it was kinda... Weird looking. I wasn't going to tame it anytime soon, and didn't care if it wasn't going to spawn again, so I killed it. It was a lvl 1, female. 700 hp, and not a lot of dmg. I then saw another. A male that was lvl 2. I once thought these were mosas, but mosas cannot go, nor can they spawn that high in shallow water. This mid-sized fish confused me. If you encounter this and don't know what it is, look for spots, a coelacanth looking body, and check the water height.

If these aren't passive, I'll go back and write another tip on do do dex, saying these aren't passive. All was encountered on mobile. -TinaZ
