Always check rivers for these guys.

Walk into the river (not with Dino)

And see if they come for you.

If they do, you can easily kill them.

DO NOT! Lose your stuff in the water they act like torpedos that tear you apart

I ran in this when I was taking my megalodon out of its crocodile and these things just started attacking my meg so I hopped on my squid "inky" and killed them but they almost got my meg killed

It’s so hard to tame on mobile I play so pls ark make it on mobile

I wish WildCard will make them tameable like it says in their dossier because they look pretty cool

I was ramming a barionix in the swamp he then I tamed him I was soooooo happy until a piranha killed it if what the barionix was low HP

Don’t let them catch you on a mount while behind you or your dead in the water. make sure they stay in front of you whenever you encounter them because of how fast they hit.

Kill it with a high damage !!!!!

RIP sheren I will use an army of my pets to kill them

The fish net is a cool way to kill them and you can throw it

Encountering this piranha and dont know what to do? dont worry, all you need is a baryonyx. Megapiranha is the most (Not really) worst water dino in ARK, crossing in rivers are the worst thing ever.

Can be tamed in abberation however you have to force feed it in it's inventory it will not feed itself.not worth taming. To tame. Jump in the water and get them to beach themselves. Kill the ones you don't want. Place fish basket wait near fish. Wait till it initializes. If the fish leaves range kite it back and start over. Then pick up trap you have five min to get them to what ever body of water you want them in. Remember you must force feed them like a baby after hatching/birth. For the entirety of their life.

You see 1 then 2 then 3 then be 4 you know it your toes are gone

When there's 3-4 or more of them,

THEY DO DOUBLE THE DMG.

WHY IS THIS A THING ANYWAY!?!

These satanfish are scared of sarcos so just walk up to a piranha-infested place and shout fear me while riding your sarco

At least that's what the dossier says, but i haven't tried it yet

I HATE THESE! THEY ONCE KILLED MY CARNO I JUST TAMED LIKE 2 MINS AGO!

While everyone is talking about how annoying piranhas are let me tell you a secret, if you swim in water and piranhas are after you, find land and once they can’t get any closer to you try swimming beside them because they’ll try to turn to you with will slide them onto land and die which is basically free food (not guaranteed to work every time)

Use a baryonyx or a spino and they won’t stand a chance

Kill then. If they are too powerful, swim away.
