Aberrant Salmon — Detailed Guide
The Aberrant 
Sabertooth Salmon is the bioluminescent Aberration form of the Sabertooth Salmon. Apart from the glow it behaves like the base fish: it swims in schools, and if one is hit and survives, the rest of the school joins the fight. It is mostly a source of fish meat.
Where to find it
- ASA: Aberration, Astraeos and Valguero.
- ASE: Aberration, Crystal Isles, Fjordur and Valguero.
It is one of the most frequent spawns in those waters.
Taming
It can be tamed passively with a 
Fish Basket. It is torpor immune, cannot be ridden and cannot be bred. In ASA the Aberrant version is radiation immune.
Uses
Raw Fish Meat, and 
Raw Prime Fish Meat when harvested with a Sickle.
Tips
Its bite drains stamina and oxygen. Hunt schools from the shore or from a mount, and finish each fish quickly so the rest of the school does not frenzy.
