It has a glowing tail. It glows. That means it gives you light. Light is good.

They can be found in artifact caves. Watch out for bad things.

48 Lat, 27 Lon are the coordinates for an entrance of a cave they spawn in.

I have concluded that bulbdogs have more charge capacity glowtails have more regen speed feather lights have more emission range and shinehorns have a bit of all those stats therefore shinehorns are the best

Glowtails can be found in the Old Railway cave on Abberation. You can tame them with Ascerbic Mushrooms. Make sure to bring cryopods!

(When tamed they eat raw meat.)

They are a cute little pet that will keep the bad bad reapers away

GLOWTAILS EAT MEAT ONCE TAMED, this includes babies. Ignore anyone talking about seeds, mushrooms or berries they're idiots and clearly haven't tested what they're talking about.

Every one says there only in the railway caves,but in reality they can be found across the blue zone. The problem is they often get killed, or they are in places you cannot reach since they can cling to walls like the megalania. Of course the railway cave is the most recommended place to tame one becaue that cave is actually safer than the blue zone. Also for some reason, despite having the narcotic mushroom being their favorite, they can knock themselves out if you put it in their inventory when tamed, and while I found have seen some having from ceilings of the railway cave, they don't appear to climb anymore when you tame them. Otherwise their an interesting light pet. By the way, there's almost always a carnotaurus inside the railway cave, and while I was able to kill it the first time, it respawed on my way out, and chased me until I got to the point where you have to crawl. By the way, it's not worth bringing a mount to the railway cave. You need a cryopod to bring anything that won't sit on your shoulder, and many of the passage ways are too small, plus this cave forces you to use the climbing pick or a grappling hook. There's a few scorpions, raptors, and ravagers, and don't fall into any pits, because there's a beefy crab down there. Also you can cheese your way through by getting creatures to walk off ledges. I highly recommend plant species z fruit and bolas.

They have the best glow then of any of the glow tames. Babies eat meat not berries.

When raising a glowtail they est meat, most people think you raise with seeds but not. EVERYONE needs to know the truth.

Of the four Lantern Pets, Glowtails have the high Base Charge Regen. However, they have the lowest base Charge Capacity

Appearance: a large gecko with bat-wing like ears similar to its distant relative the rock drake, and large moth-like wings and a distinctive glowing tail. Size: around three feet long and half a foot tall. Uses: can sense max level creatures or enemy players and their pets with ultrasonic sound waves it emits from it's mouth, weakens and burns reapers and nameless lowering their defences and forcing nameless into the ground, provides light and are unusual but strangely adorable animals, although they generally have the lowest charge capacity and second lowest range they have excellent charge regeneration meaning they can protect their owner almost nonstop.

Nintendo switch- to raise bbs they eat seeds. Iggys work great for this. Not sure about narc or stim seeds.
