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.

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😁)

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

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

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!

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

In ARK mobile none of the dinos attack a tamed ichthyosaurus.

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

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

These are very fast they are like the aquatic version of the Pteranodon .Like this so it will be considered a fast Dino in the search bar.

Basically the equivalent of a kid who eats adderall for breakfast lunch and dinner.
These things are extremely fast and never stop moving. Just upgrade speed and stam!

Don’t miss click and punch them wile trying to feed them fish.

If you use it to get oil and silica pearls, set to passive, it won't swim away when attacked

I was out collection oil and what not than some megaladon comes up bites my dolphin than the bi*** swam off and left me stranded!!

I dont know why alot of people are saying other water dinos dont attack this dino this is false everything shy of turtles and small fish attack you so always be aware of your surroundings. Also this dino is the fastest water dino so lvl stam and speed. Side note you will not win a fight against anything on this dino it is for traveling in water only. Stay away from all water dinos.

Make shure that you tame one pf these because they are extremely fast and the do a lot of damage. I named mine Speedy and he can kill everything that‘s on his path.

You won’t get attacked by water creatures when on one. Even if they are aggressive
