To the one who owns mini. Request her dude. If you are on mobile of course.

Always put a tracking device on your ichthy. I once had an ichthy called mini on mobile, mini was a good tame, she never failed when I needed her, she was the first way I got to herbivore island, she could take me to all the best hunting beaches, but then one day I thought 'hey mini's such a good tame let's see if I can go around the whole island on her' so I tried I was doing well, I'd already got from my home in the footpaw to the sandspit near the red obelisk, but then mini started to get hungry, I went and looked for food for her and found a moschops, but it didn't give me much meat so I decided to go after a gallimimus it escaped, but when I got back to where I left mini she was gone, no death message no gap in my tame list just gone, for months I searched that sandspit for mini, but to no avail, one day a year after I'd lost her I was running low on tame slots, I knew I had to unclaim her, even now when I visit that sandspit I think I see her but I never do. RIP Mini 🐬💗

It would be awesome if these guys could jump.

If you’re on mobile and single player, don’t make a saddle! You get a free one after completing the tame icthy pursuit

I tamed one of these named Diana. She was super fast but kind of stupid: always getting stuck on something. Diana and I formed somewhat of a relationship as time went on. Our bond strengthened she was able to beach a shark for me to kill it. Diana soon became one of my best friends... but nothing lasts forever. As I was leading her back to base via SS Dodo, I noticed a large figure swimming rapidly towards us. Diana made the fatal mistake of not paying attention to her surroundings. I helplessly fire arrow after arrow at it, but it was so filled with rage that they had no affect. I had to watch as MY Diana was ripped to shreds by an oversized fish. That is why my base is now called Fort Diana in honor of the brave soul. Thank you for your time.

Are you a mobile player? well its your lucky day! taming these means you just got yourself the best aquatic dino ingame;for some reason the dino is bugged so no matter what dangerous dino you put it next to, it doesnt get attacked. If you obtain the saddle and ride it you become invisible to the carnivores. if you wanna farm Literaly every meat, hide, EXP ride this baby. I got to kill a rex because it went too close to the shore.

Note: (The carnivores attack you when you unmount, if you attack carnivores at the front they will attack, Idk if this works on multiplayer since I havent tried.)

A bunch of these guys once protected me from a Megalodon and a Manta by swarming all around me to prevent my death...

MOBILE: Tested in single-player that actually some tamed Ichthy aggro nothing in the ocean while some attract sea creatures from afar. Reasons are not yet confirmed, but it's likely that those Ichthy with higher raw level or better status don't aggro.

Not true. Icthys on mobile still are not attacked by anything in the ocean(unless u attack it). I tested it while taming a lv 80 mosa. Swam right next to it before I attacked. I still think icthys are the best underwater tame. Their fast, they have rider weaponry, and r perfect for taming plesiosaurs and mosas. Tamed easily, as they swim right up to u. They eat dodo kibble, and if u have 3-5 kibble, u can easily get one fast. (-like if this helps😁)

If it swims up to you and you have not hit it is not agressive, it’s just a happy boi and wants some fish!

to the person who lost mini you did say you were on mobile so why didn’t you just request her?

It is now attacked by underwater creatures beware!!! It lost the non-aggro ability it had before

Best for killing scorpions on bottom of ocean floor since they don't take torpor. Scorpions down there will knock any other animals out. Once you kill it, hit it with a pickaxe to gather black pearls. Very useful for the next update with tek gear.

Tame it at herbivore island, there is a circle in the middle of the island where there are alot of them and they are trapped so it is easy to tame

Can confirm that Ichties have lost their no-aggro ability. Most frustrating thing ever to see them get killed by everything now

MOBILE PLAYERS: I have tested it, and NOTHING, I mean NOTHING attacks you. This includes jellyfish, anglers, mosas, megs, EVERYTHING. HOWEVER. This only applies if you DO NOT attack the thing in question (or ammonites), and in my experience this makes it perfect for scouting out high-level potential tames

These things are used for one thing and one thing only: speed. Invest it all in speed and nothing can hope to match you underwater. A good Dino to kite with

Once I tamed one of these and named it itchy. Itchy got his name from when I don’t mount him he always twitches around like his whole body got infested by fleas. Once I played with my friend and we were traveling to dodo island when a random sarco came out of nowhere and started biting my friend. I ordered my trike (Tina) to get rid of that thing. But Tina fell into the water and attracted megalodons. We didn’t have any cargo on that raft so we abandoned it immediately and I jumped onto Itchy and he was insane fast and swam away before the megolodons could react. Sadly for my friend and Tina that they died and my friend lost all his gear because he did not have one of these. Itchy was a real life saver for me. A good starter mount for starters.

Tamed because everyone said nothing Aggros it, placed it in water, went to go drop my items in storage before setting off..."Ichtyosaurus was killed by Megalodon" Ocean just ain't for me maaannnn

They nuzzle up to you for an easy start to a game but tend to wander off after a while. It is best if you trap it in a walled off area while it follows you for an easy tame
