Best way to farm anomalies?

[Foncible]

Trying to get a lot of anomalies but I only ever see like one of the sprites running around and then they spoil before I can ever get more.

Put them in a fridge to slow the decay.
There's plenty of them around the place, it's just rare there's more than one in the same room in my experience.

Storing them in a fridge doesn't seem to slow down their decay, though.

Nor is it a way to farm. im also having trouble finding them. you need 4 per
advanced fertilizer and so iv basically given up on making it

That's the same issue I'm having, too.

Basically you need to go running through the night and trying to catch as many as you can, but it's still extremely RNG based.

i think there is a mantion that they prefer plants ? aka put alot of plants around your base to spawn more ?

i get about 2 to 4 Every time i see them in office sector near the data farm..then instead of storing them i directly make them into their final destination (that never expires) :)

Yes.

I have access to batteries up to carbon, I have no reason to keep my stuff unpowered at this stage of the game.

Anomalies are attracted to plant matter. Start gardening.

Also, for clarity: I got 2 anomalies and stored them at a fridge (powered). By the time they were stored, their decay was already down to 92. Less than an in-game day later, their decay is down to 44.

One way or another, anomalies decay extremely fast.

Used for crafting certain items. Compost, Fertilizer, Pest Teleporter and Transmogrifier.

Also, because I only found this out later: you can obtain Anomalies with a 100% success rate if you have Test Tubes in your inventory. Each tube is consumed to capture 1 Anomaly.
