It’s easy to tame when on an Ichty they won’t attack you
Beginners Guide To MANTA: Cute Club
Hand fed and good pet! Need an itchy to tame.
1) Obtain sixteen angler gel (should eat less, but prepare!)
2) Ride an Itchy near the manta
3) Feed angler gel
4) Once tamed, equip a saddle. DO NOT RIDE NEAR any aggressive animal. It is NOT like the Itchy.

These things are like jetskis. Good for racing in water
It is a passive tame but it will kill you and eat you if it sees you
Dont tame them close to a megalodon the meg does not like them and kills them all the time over and over again. I learnt from experience on my first go.
Taming calculator is very off. Feeding interval is 28 seconds and I tamed a 95 that came to 129 not 120.
Build a 1x1 stone hut under water swim out the door then back in they cant get in but the will try and get stuck at the door
These things are tricky to tame but I lure one to shore and put fence Foundation and then walls not a specific kind and then feed it angler gel which i got from killing anachita great tactic for lower level players
Never I mean never bring your high level Rex in the water in the center map because like 20 of these things killed my level 171 Rex after I tamed it and was going to lava island and my Rex fell off the boat.
So this worked out fine for me but it may not for you so just make a box in the water make the manta agro on the box and it should attempt to destroy it and then you can tame it this is it
Mantas break stone don’t be fooled they do
They can jump out of water, which is useful to jump between rivers, but beware, if they jump on land, they will lose lots of health, very rapidly.
Easy way to get angler gel, kill and harvest achatinas from the redwood biome. If you have a good small mount/weapons there are giant anglers in the hard snow cave which you can kill from the surface and harvest for 100+ gel (with wolf in my experience)
Build stone fence foundations and doorways 2 wide and 3 long where the shore meets the ocean and lure a manta in placing doorways behind him so he cant leave, passive feed angler gel through the doorway till tamed. These thing are fun to ride but dangerous. They can jump out of water & if you land on any rocks or shore, you will die...
Really neat tames I recommend leveling up in movement speed. If you get a flock of high levels they will destroy water tames.
It's actually easy to tame, just stay in the water with it and keep swimming away from it (on a passive water mount) and just keep circling round it and feeding. Don't go near the shore tho no matter what
Tamed up a couple easy jut try to find a ledge in water get it stuck on ledge
Build a raft. Place fence foundations around it place wooden door ways on top now you can place stone doorways underneath build 3 deep underneath the raft. Snap pillars in the doorways in the back build it 4 pillars deep. Build ceilings underneath it and one outwards facing the front build 2 fence foundations in the front place a dino gate on them and you 've got an mediocre tame box for mantas but bewary they will be able to hit you if you use bug repellant you should be fine.
Even though these are a pain to tame if you get the chance they are amazing creatures. They have the ability to jump out of the water. They are also either the first or the second fastest water Dino/animal.
build a square with 4 pillars and 1 ceiling but leave one pillar, then find the manta you desire lure it and place the last pillar. (the pillars need to snap to 1 foundation away from each other)
