I found mine by a sea sausage around the Southern Islets. It was a relatively quick tame after the first feed. I had to save up for an outpost (25 amber) so I could make a scuba tank, but once I had it, there wasn’t much else to do but find one. I rode on Ran, my Baryonyx, and the manta never aggroed. It only took 9 or so angler gel for a level 27 (11% per feed). I brought her home and named her Anandimide. I’m kinda disappointed that you can’t pull out a map or spyglass from the back, but the speed and strength of the animal makes up for it.

For anybody that doesn’t know about Achatinas, they are the answer to your angler gel needs, just get a high dmg raptor or Caron find one, and kill it with the extra attack you get more angler gel.

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.

AnglerMeat boii

Hiw to tame one:

1. Don't bring tranq arrows or narcotics coz they passive tame

2. They prefer AnglerGel (can be obtained by harvesting dead anglers or achatinas)

3. Ride am Itchthy to tame while not being attacked or lead it to shallow water then feed it the AnglerGels.

4. Now you have a Manta! Tamed ones only eat meat or fish meat and are pretty fast btw.

It is a passive tame but it will kill you and eat you if it sees you

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.

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

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

On PC: no longer grabbed by Karpo, no longer can be fed while on Ichtyo (prompt does not appear). They also aggro on Ichtyo.

Pelagornis was my way to tame the thing: after feeding flee as fast as you can.

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

To tame stand still and everyone it comes for u just swim up to doge easy while looking down to feed like so everyone can see

Okay guys non violent tame means you cant knock it out and feed till it loves u u need to feed it as it attacks u

Mantas break stone don’t be fooled they do

I don't know if it's just for me but when I tried taming a few the intervals to feed it where more than it actually said

Taming calculator is very off. Feeding interval is 28 seconds and I tamed a 95 that came to 129 not 120.

Its fun to rid them.Put points into movement speed and you have a fast water mount.

You can passive tame them like dung beetles.Make sure to have an Ichthyosaurus or use bug repellant when you tame them or they will aggro on you.

They have a slower attack rate but does kinda decent damage.

They are a huge pain in the a**

while taming underwater creatures.

Non violent tame means u dont have to knock it out

I used meat it killed me

...... Never do that

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)
