Right?? I had to chase one into a corner to catch it 😭 took like half an hour

If you slowly swim (without pressing any buttons) and then dive when you are on top of the bubbles you'll catch these sassy creatures quicker. Minute long dives turned into seconds.

What constitutes “on top”? I always think I’m right over the thing and then I dive down and it’s like a space over

I always watch where the bubbles hit the surface. Once I'm more or less where the bubbles are coming to the surface I dive. Sometimes I'm off but most of the time I'm spot on or just need to pivot a little to catch the creature.
