To successfully tame these place these in a cage then place the fish basket next to the cage. Press the button to tame or capture release in your water pin. Apparently you control them using standard tamed menu control.

I was about to tame an otter when this thing killed it😓

These guys seem to be most active when it’s dark so don’t let you or your pets enter water at dusk I learned this the hard way people

1 up=1one pet saved

P.S

hope this helped😄

Do not bring land tames in water with these little guys around they will kill your tame and then you!

They killed my spino in the water while taming

A nice lvl is great in pvp 🤣🤘

I teamed them using a fish basket and then I let them kill all of our piranha's in that pond.

Piranhas are a pain in the butt to deal with. Do NOT try to tame them or kill them at a low level. If you see them at all, leave the water immediately

Warning, these creatures will demolish low levels. Such a pain travelling across the water...

These guys can be tamed with the aberration fish basket but dam, this thing is annoying if you want to swim without any dino, taming one with an ab fish basket is 100% useless plus it's the most annoying thing ever for new players, but if you tame a high level army of these it can be op tho

They are stupid a level 2 hit me for 120

They can be tamed with aberation’s fish trap

NGL I saw these bastards take down a whole wild bronto lvl 100

I f$#&@$g hate these things,they killed my lvl6 spino and a raptor,lost my armor and died

These Monsters!killed my Parasaur 2 silos monchomps and my three dodos and me.I hate these if they kill one more of my dinosaurs I’m a going on a rampage and killing any one i see!!Other dinos they killed of mine 50 Dodos 2 Raptors 1 of those big turtles and a pachy+trike

I placed a storage box in the water. Next day, it was gone . Piranhas can destroy storage boxes ?? ( I'm using the pc version )

So here is a pretty good way to kill them

Get a pelagornus

Make a saddle

Equip the saddle to your over sized seagull

Find these little @$&# and use your over feed seagull to kill tem (I play ark mobile and this works for me sooooo) I hope this helped you get rid of these ridiculously big water cockroaches👍

Completing pursuit of killing 5 piranha gives a soothing balm

I was going and killing piranhas for food because I couldn't get any other food now they are exinct

Just hit it with any gun, crossbow, or the bronto/diplo and they’ll die, I know this because I play golf with these little turds.
