Anglerfish 1750 Weight

💡 Anglerfish – Deep-Sea Lightbearer and Silica Pearl Specialist

The Anglerfish, or Angler, is a compact but highly valuable aquatic tame known for its exceptional silica pearl harvesting and built-in illumination. While it may not be the fastest or strongest swimmer in the ocean, its specialized utility makes it a must-have for any survivor managing an underwater base, exploring the deep sea, or stockpiling resources for advanced crafting.

🦪 1. Best Silica Pearl Harvester

• The Angler is hands-down the most efficient way to gather silica pearls in bulk.

• With a unique harvesting bonus, it collects significantly more pearls than a player or most other tames, making it critical for:

  • Electronics crafting

  • Tek gear

  • Advanced saddles and structures

• Combined with decent weight, it can carry a large load before needing to surface or transfer.

🔦 2. Built-in Light Source

• Its glowing lure functions as a mobile underwater light, illuminating caves, trenches, and deep-sea zones.

• Helps improve visibility in otherwise pitch-black underwater areas, reducing the risk of ambushes by creatures like eels or squids.

• Ideal for exploring underwater caves and resource-rich ocean trenches.

🐟 3. Compact and Maneuverable

• The Angler has tight turning and fits into areas that larger sea creatures can’t access.

• Great for navigating narrow underwater tunnels, coral reefs, and complex cave layouts.

• Easy to store in tight aquatic base spaces or cryopod banks without hogging room.

🛡️ 4. Surprisingly Tanky

• While not built for combat, the Angler has decent health and can hold its own against smaller aquatic threats like mantas or ichthyosaurs.

• With support from stronger aquatic tames like a Megalodon or Basilosaurus, it becomes a safe and efficient pearl harvester even in dangerous waters.
