where do I find it, I can never seem to find it, I suddenly just have it

Mid Zone. They are on tufa-like rocks in swamp water and give off a pink glow. You use a hand-vac to collect them.

You want the Mires biomes in the Mid Zone. It grows out of twisting formations called Neon Reefs by the game. Mostly but not always in water, look for a pinkish crystal.

Look for something substantial growing out of ponds. Also keep an eye out for light stands, the first deposit I found was on dry land and the lights attracted my attention.

Ultimately? This is one of the PITA that makes a resource radar a good investment.

For harvesting It's light sensitive, and will retract into the reef soon after you approach. Best harvest by a thermal vacuum, but a regular one will work if you provide lights. I've had decent results by firing a flare gun straight up over it, then working fast. Car headlights will do, at least from that angle.

you need way too many of those for building stuff. Dev could cut 1/3 of the quantity needed and you would STILL have to do AT LEAST two runs to get enough, so annoying.

man is too impatient to grab 100% from each reef
