6 There u go

Abilities:

It's a fast water mount and on ark mobile it's invisible It's…

To tame(passive) they will come to you if they get close enough but will wander off after a few feeds. To make it easier build a small pen around them once they attract to you.

Does anyone know how to request these on multiplayer? I lost both of mine exploring herbivore island ( The Island ) and I can’t seem to request. I can’t get back too.

Can anyone please submit a tip for that?

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)

If your playing on mobile just make the dodo kibble, supper simple and will save you like 2 hours trying to tame to with raw fish meat

up if helpful

After the initial feeds, it will swim normally if your mounted. Once you dismount, it will swim directly away from you. Use this mechanic to beach it and stay behind it in the water so it does not flee to ocean. Be mindful of piranha and land Dino's.

A good way to tame an Icthy is to tame a parasaur because they have the radar ability then swim with the parasaur and keep using the radar so you can detect any piranhas or megalodons then feed the icthy you want to tame with prime meat or normal meat

It is a great beginner tame On mobile all you need is a raft and you got a scary dolphin

I tamed mine at the red obelisk. He sure liked me, since he didn’t even run away.

Note:

If you are taming Ichthys then tame them being underwater (don't get outside the water) or the hostile creatures will aggro on you.

This is Similar like Taming Arthro And Araneo In Caves

When tamed, block and support the Itchy. Or megs and mantas will KO your tame.

Well if you are on mobile and dinos of lvl. 30 rarely roam the island, just cook a Dodo Kibble (You get a pursuit named 'Fresh Breakfast') Just put a Dodo egg, some rokcarrots(You can mostly find them on small hills to big mountains, and to be specific, in jungle…

To tame a lvl 100 or more you need 80+ fish and a 10x taming boost

With the addition of the new Kaprosuchus you can now grab the Itchy and another tribe member can easily feed it dodo kibble, without the risk of it swimming away.

Look out for jellyfish. A group snuck up behind me while taming a 105 ichthyosaurus...

An itchy is easier to tame than most neutral/passive creatures. It naturally approaches to you if you swim close to it, but it will never make a move to attack, allowing safe feeding so long as there are not predators.

The karkinos, kaprosuchus, and megalosaurus can not grav/pick up the Ichthyosaurus. Up vote so people can see.
