if you use a syringe and drain your health to 10% or lower(without dying ofc lol), the pup will try to heal u aswell entering the state in which u can feed it

WARNING: if your tidepup cocoons itself it will lose all of its growth to evolve

easiest way to tame a Tidepup is just to bring a small dino that you can safely injure a little, walk it over to the Tidepup, and let the little guy heal it. Every time it finishes healing your dino, you get a chunk of taming progress. Then you just wait for the Tidepup to chill for a bit, hurt your dino again (not too much), and repeat the process. It’s super low‑stress since the Tidepup doesn’t get aggressive or anything, so you can take your time and just cycle the heal → rest → heal loop until it’s yours.

Lunar biome on Genesis , and get scorched you get 1 dmg and dispek every 45 seconde

You can indeed tame these by using your own health instead of a tame’s; starvation is the most effective method I’ve found so far, as it will heal you for a small amount, nap, wake, and be ready to heal you again by the time you naturally get below ten percent of your maximum health bar due to continued starvation.

They are easier to separate for me with a wooden cage. I plop one down and try to get the high lvl one in and once thats in and trapped, i can kill the others. Leave aggro range and come back and its ready to go.

I use a campfire and burn myself down low hp to activate it. It screams and heals me and i can open the cage, feed, close the gate. Rinse and repeat easy peasy.

Use the extended hud setting in your clickwheel it helps with figuring out your hp levels

You can’t tame it without the tides of fortune dlc

You can also hurt yourself with something like a campfire to tame it instead of using a tame.
