If you find one your can easily kill it, but if they are in a group don't bother even a megalodon won't stand a chance they shredded my high-level megalodon like paper
Whoever said that you can use a kapperucus to pick them up and do not diy was so rong because when I used my kapperuscus and picked it up and it died in its mouth almost immediately.
Had 2 jump on my raft ramp tame them very easy. They jump on raft after me while I was taming megdon. Didn't know. Was only 1 ramp high. Could help people trying to get
Whoever said these things can be “passive tamed”, needs to understand these need to be passive in the first place.

The other day my X spino died because I swam over there god aka the bailo and the manta Ray's got mad and they got under my spino and she couldn't hit them. DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE STING RAYS
Okay I want to clear this up. I am sure most of you already know but there seems to be a little confused on the term non violent tame, It does not mean the creature is not violent it means it is tamed by passively feeding it like a Lystrosaurus instead of knocking it out like a Dodo. For the manta particularly you may be concerned but don’t worry if you are on an Icthyosaurus ( easy to tame at a high enough level there is even a quest that walks you through taming one) they won’t attack you I don’t recommend going anywhere near them without an aquatic mount though. Be forewarned however they are only tamed by a fairly rare substance called angler gel so keep playing to find some I would check here on Dododex for creatures that drop it (other than anglerfish of course that one is pretty implied)
Swim next to the basilosaurus they are swimming with and tame from there, they won’t attack and there is no need for the dolphin or anything like that
These are in the my top 3 most hated creatures in ark, (1st and 2nd being the leech and the lamprey). Reason why I hate mantas: They are ugly in my opinion; a full on gang of more than 10 of these interfered while I was taming sharks which was to help fight these annoying things off; and finally, when I tried to tame an itchyosaurus so I could explore the sea, these chased me back into the shore.
Mantas DO aggro icthys! Do not listen to those who say they don’t, they 100% do.
A diplocaulus is faster than these guys in water!!! Upbote

This thing can fly??? I SWEAR I SAW THEM FLY!
I make a large platform raft with multiple spaced out ramps. I agro multiple manta onto the ramps. Let them unagro and you can tame them in peace. Not some will die in this attempt and after you complete the time you post demolish the ramp or they WILL DIE!
Trap it in pillars on the beach to make taming it easier.
Here is my plan I do
I kill anglers for angler jell on my itchy and feed them mantas
