Do not listen to the person who said that they only eat angler gel, they can only be tamed with angler gel, they will eat meat after tamed. They won't agro on you if your riding an ichty too. Up‌vote

So I once found one of these little sh*ts and thought it was passive like real mantas.

Do not go up to it

It will sting u and everyone in the water!

It is a killer pancake!

I repeat a killer pancake!

DO NOT BRING IT ON LAND!!!!

(it dies)

I feel like it should not say non violent tame because this thing is very violent

Non violent?! Bruh this dude is suuuupper violent .

I step in the water near them, next thing i knew i was a bag

When taming use bug repelent to prevent the manta from attacking you

If you are planning on doing anything involving water prepare to despise these flat horrors. They can out swim you. They can swarm you. They can act friendly and once you turn your back eat your tame. Beware.

Surprisingly bug spray actually works with these guys I was bored and tryed it and it worked!!! No argro if u WEAR bug spray!!!!

Kill them All. Revenge for Steve. Never forget Never forgive.

Tame a kaprosuchos and swim to one of these bad boys and do it's alternate attack it will grab it in it's mouth. walk onto the shore where its safe and have another person feed it while in the gators mouth (if you unmount it drops it) it wont attack or die because it's technically not on the shore.

Here's a suggestion, don't go near the water if there are more than 3 or these b*tches especially if you are just starting out trust me on this they are aggressive as hell

Guys it says passive tame because you don't need to knock it out🤦‍♂️ anyways, whoever said they only eat angler gel after tamed is a liar. They eat meat too. This deathly pancake is a good tame. Here's how to tame it: 1. Find a manta (if you're on the island theres some near the little lake thing where you spawn)

2. Get it to aggro on you

3. Get kind of out of the water

4. Feed it angler gel

5. Tame more and start breeding!

Enjoy your deathly pancake

They are aggressive in real life too. RIP Steve Irwin.

Think I hate these more than dilos and compy taming

Its attack completely bypasses armour, so its potential in PvP is legendary. Also super speed sea mount. And who said these were useless?

Eats at 28 seconds, not 11

Just ride an itchy and you can feed it without it aggroing on you. I’m on mobile

They say passive tame because YOU are the one that’s supposed to be passive, same way it says “non-violent” it’s talkin bout you NOT the actual tame, sheesh

Do not dismount while in midair over sea! Dismounting while in the air will kill it!
