The Struggle of Quantum Slimes

[JeakJaykJonk]

I recently found the old ruins and got quantum slimes, but the thing is i cant control them and they all disapeared. Is there any tips on how to deal with them?

Keep them well fed to reduce their agitation. When they get become agitated, they teleport out.
So just make sure they are constantly surrounded by food whenever they need it.

Keep sheltered and well fed. Simple as that. They can be little devils but they generally behave with a full belly.

[purplecharmanderz]

as stated above, keep them below 20% agitation, normally takes roughly 11 minutes to reach that level and pures can eat every 6 while largos every 7. would suggest a favoured because that will ensure you don't get a slow build up of excess agitation that you aren't reducing

Thanks for the help!

[MozarteanChaos]

giving them a slime toy and the music upgrade for whatever corral you're keeping them in can help too - both reduce the rate at which agitation builds (especially if the slime toy is one that's favoured by the slime/largo in question), which should make them easier to contain.

even before adding the toy, i've had barely any of my quantum largos escape, but it might be good to have one just in case.

i free range the quantums with the fireflies inside the cave. this way if they ever get out, they die w.o tarring the other slimes

[JeakJaykJonk]

old man, what is fireflies? I am kinda noobish at the game.

Referring to phosphors.

place them in the cave and give them a plort to make them big they can't escape the cave so you can make them return easly in they cage

TBH I just free ranged them in the Overgrowth until I got the Miles Mochi expansion unlocked then transfered them there free range.

To feed them I planted a couple of phase lemon trees there.

I used some pink slimes to turn them into largos 'cause I knew I wouldn't be moving them again. Plus extra plorts are always good and I always need pink slimes for crafting.

Used my extra plots to host ponds that I stocked with puddle slimes.

Bought them a couple of toys to help keep them near the trees.

Popped down a market and refinery link.

Put down two drones to harvest the plorts from freerange and from ponds. Depending on if I need quantum plorts in the refinery or to sell I set the drones to dumping the plorts in either. You could also use one of the plots to host a silo instead of a pond and have the drones deposit there for you to decide exactly how many go where.

I show up occasionally to splash water on the drones. They can't use the teleporter so there is 0 risk of them escaping. Plus it's fun to come in and see them happily teleporting around.

I’ve decided to let those slimes Freeroam in the underground area and plant trees for them to eat their fav food.These have been really helpful, thanks!

I keep a max of five pure quantum slimes in one enclosure with one toy rubix cube, it works really well.

[ArgentumRattus]

I free range about 20 qauntum phosphors in the grotto. i have two lemon trees with which to feed them. two drones to pick up each of the diff plorts then they take those to a refinery link to sell.
personally i dont see the point in trying to keep them caged because none of those things, the toys, music, what have you, helped me in keeping them in cages. I haven't had a single one escape from the grotto yet

You need to constantly babysit quantums. Every time you do your rounds at your ranch, you should check on them and make sure they're fed and stuff. Even if you're super dilligent, you will eventually run out as they will eventually get agitated and disappear. You'll have to occasionally go out and restock on them from time to time. Throw a couble rubix cubes in there to help. I just have one corral with about 20-30 of them and two lemon gardens and it works for me.
