AnglerGel is an organic fuel resource that can be obtained by killing Anglerfish, Deathworm, Corrupted Creatures, or from fishing. On ARK Mobile it can also be obtained from Achatinas.
AnglerGel is the longest lasting lighting source and can be used on the Standing Torch and Wall Torch. It also has the least weight of any lighting fuel. When used on a Standing Torch, or Wall Torch the torch's color turns blue.
AnglerGel is needed to craft and repair the Heavy Miner's Helmet, Night Vision Goggles and Electric Prod. After the Prod has been used once, it has to be refilled at a Fabricator with a base cost of 8 AnglerGel.
AnglerGel is also used to passive tame a Manta.

Tips
- Using creatures with long hit range like Tusoteuthis can be useful because how far the Anglerfish go after get the first hit, and to harvest their bodies before something else do it.
- To take advantage of the collection efficiency of land collectors like Chainsaw or Direwolf the player can use the shallow waters of maps like Aberration or similars where the Anglerfish spawns, allowing the easy use of those methods.
Utility
- Forge: While it is not quite inexpensive, it is useful for forges on mobile bases since it has an extremely low weight plus its long burning time, or for forges on insular bases since it requires only one slot (Filled with 59 × AnglerGel) to process a fully loaded forge in the 7 other slots.
- Light: While one stack lasts 4 days, it can still add up quickly if this is used as a basic light source.
Notes/Trivia
- Despite its rarity, it does not have many uses, which means that it is often not in short supply. On the contrary, many players have large quantities of this resource, ironically making it very disposable.
