My added tip for MOBILE players: The Icthies can get attacked once by a Meg if you attack it. So be sure to always have a good saddle. I also use this guy to tame a Basilosaurus. Please NOTE that 1: Feed the Basilo WHILE on the Icthy. 2: Always have good saddle. Kill everything that can aggro on the basilo once tamed. 3: Beware of Megs. Tested on Mobile. They bite once on your first few bites and if you survive it they will de-aggro and NOT bite anymore no matter how many times you bite them. But MANTAS will not aggro on you no matter how many times you bite them. Mantas will literally be searching for you swimming in circles.

Please don’t be fooled. All these people saying they won’t get attacked is a feature on MOBILE ONLY. Even on pc or console, there’s still good tames. While they’re not great harvesters and don’t have much health, food, or stamina, they're easily capable of outswimming everything in the ocean. Those stupid megalodons don’t stand a chance.
These things are amazing like literally Op, its easy to tame and the best thing about it is its very fast, nothing attacks it yes! nothing even when i damage any creature it will only attack me once and then leave me alone and i could also just kill creature's easily after getring hit once only yeah... just dont get off your itchy and if you do everything will start attacking you even after you get on the itchy again so dont get off the itchy under water if your tryna collect oil just equip the pickaxe and you'll be able to mine while riding the itchy! which means your on god mode bec nothing is a threat to you.. i dont know about land creatures tho...
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😁)
