Tips & Strategies
Don’t worry about aggressive or territorial creatures on ichy. I think even sarcos leave u alone. Don’t walk up to one with a ichy tho cuz I still dont know for sure. (This is for mobile)
With the release of ASA these things become a lot harder to tame. The movement speed nerf really impacted this early game tame. Since you can’t even match the speed of these with flippers, catching up to it is impossible on foot. SAVE YOURSELF AN HOUR OF SWIMMING AFTER THESE AND BUILD A TRAP!!
For an early game tame; wild card made these very hard to get in ASA.
A basi is way easier to tame then these. That’s saying something. WC really messed this one up, big thumbs down 👎🏻👎🏻
If you having hard time chasing this creature to feed it,just dont chase it,better try to run away from them like 1 meter and you'll see he's the one chasing you and just dont move and feed it,no need trap (Mobile btw,idk about pc or other platforms)
Tried taming it where 15 megaladons were... did not go well. I tamed it barely and immediately all the megaladons attacked it, killed it, and ate it...
Yeah, bad day.
Even though most aquatic creatures don’t aggro it megs will so be careful around those, luckily you can easily outrun them. mantas and other things will also aggro it if you dismount so don’t leave it unsupervised in an area with a lot of sealife (sarcos may also be a threat as I’ve seen some go way out into the ocean where they aren’t supposed to go, though I don’t know if they do aggro or not)
This will aggro megs and manta be carful on mobile
Press the up arrow if you can’t be attacked while riding on and icthy
Make sure the area is clear of megalodons first
I’m pretty sure they make compy noises. I was trying to tame one and I kept hearing a compy, like really close. But it confused me because compys shouldn’t be underwater but nope, it’s an ichthyosaurus.
(I don’t know if it’s a bug or something but it’s kinda funny)
I don't know why but all creatures still attack me while riding the ichty.. :(
If you can find and tame one, then you can kill a lot of megalodons without them killing you
They have a stealth feature that nothing will attack you while riding one. If you attack something, say, a megalodon, the meg will attack once, then leave you alone while you’re killing it. But if you dismount, then get back on, the stealth is disabled. WARNING! NEVER ATTACK CNIDARIA! If you do, you will die and lose your ichthy.
Ummm... so not everyone know this, easiest place to find the fish on The Island map is by going to the vegetarian dino island and searching the shores, it's gonna be dangerous, i will try to get more information on how deep they usually are

Use raw meat goes up 3% raw fish meat goes up1%
You can usually find these by the coast and occasionally in rivers. But watch out, they may attract sharks
