A corral of Slimes in Slime Rancher 2

One of the most important parts of being a Slime Rancher is knowing about each of the different Slime species and understanding their likes and dislikes. There are a number of reasons that this is important, some are as simple as that you don't want to be attacked, while other reasons include making sure they don't die when you leave them alone at your farm. In this Slime Rancher 2 All Slime Guide we'll cover each slime species as well as where you'll be able to find them, their favorite foods, and any other unique quirk to them.

Tips for Raising your Slimes

  • A Slime can eat the Plort of a different Slime to turn into a Largo, a combination of the two. As a Largo when they eat they'll generate Plorts of both aspects of their new combined form
    i.e a Tabby Slime eating the Plort of a Cotton Slime will create a Tabby Cotton Largo which when fed will generate Tabby Plorts and Cotton Plorts
  • If a Largo eats a third Slime it will become a Tarr monster, these will devour all Slimes in the area so should be killed with water asap
     
  • The only Slimes/Plorts that can't eat another are the Puddle and Fire Slime
