[[File:Aquanite icon.png|left]]
The '''Aquanite''' is a [[Slayer]] monster that requires a Slayer level of 78 to kill and was announced by [[Jagex]] in a [[Polls|Guaranteed Content poll]] on [[17 June]] [[2009]] and subsequently released on [[28 July]] 2009. The poll asked players which name for the new monster they preferred: Aquanite, Gilidrixon, Amphibrath, Lanterwyn, or Anglibian. All of the names were suggested by players on the [[RuneScape Forums]] thread "Name A Slayer Creature" in "Suggestions - Monster and NPC". The name Aquanite won the Guaranteed Content Poll over Gilidrixon by 117 votes.

==Habitat==
The Aquanites are located past the [[Kurask]]s at the very end of the [[Fremennik Slayer Dungeon|Fremennik Slayer Dungeon.]] While there are no requirements to get there, the travel time can be reduced with 81 [[Agility]] ([[summer pie|boostable]]).

The route, in conjunction with a [[ring of slaying]], is to teleport directly to the Relleka dungeon and simply run using both [[Agility shortcuts]].

There is another, faster way for those without 81 Agility. First, Smoking Kills must be ''completed'' before this can be used. Using a ring of slaying to teleport to Sumona, players run down the Desert Slayer Dungeon into either the Kurask or Turoth rooms, and use the portal, making players have a little walk to their lair. Otherwise, if players do not want to waste points for buying/making a ring of slaying, the Bandit Camp's lodestone or the Al-Kharid lodestone will suffice enough.

Using the Bandit camp lodestone, players will run east to the Desert Slayer Dungeon, or if needed, go down the Smokey Well to avoid unnesscary desert heat damage. If using the Al-Kharid lodestone, stock up at the Shantay pass, and bring either 205-400 coins and head to Pollnivneach.

==Trivia==
*The examine text may be a reference to Dory in Finding Nemo.
*The new item that came out along with Aquanite was the [[Amulet of ranging]] which increases range attack and magic defence bonuses by a moderate amount.
*There was a safe spot for the Aquanites. If a player was along the east wall and attacked the Aquanite spawned on the west wall, the Aquanite would retreat and not attack. This was later fixed.
*When Aquanites were released, it was possible that a player could set up and use a cannon to kill them; this was fixed by Jagex hours after their release.
*Previously, [[Kuradal]] could not assign Aquanites as a task. However, with the [[Update:Shattered Heart|Shattered Heart update]] on [[3 March]] [[2010]], the ability to be assigned Aquanites can be purchased for 50 [[slayer reward point|Slayer points]]. Once unlocked, they cannot be removed from the assignments list except through the use of using one of the cancellation slots.
*Its bio-luminescence resembles that of [[Rocktail]]s, as they have a similar bio-luminescence like anglerfish in real life.
*While attacking, the Aquanite's animation for its magic attack seems similar to that of using a 2h sword on crush setting.
*While using magic protection prayers, if the prayer is on before the Aquanite makes its attack, and when the projectile reaches you, there is a chance that it will splash, or hit, though no damage will be taken.
*The Aquanite's attack, when it reaches the player and hits, looks almost alike a "splashed" spell, just without the water being very visible.
*Even though [[Guthan's]] has a decent stab bonus, the set effect will not overcome the Aquanite's damage.
*It has duck-like webbed feet, a bioluminescent light hanging from its forehead like that of an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglerfish angler fish], and a head with whiskers like a catfish. This monster, therefore, seems to be a mixture of several different real life animals.
*While fighting Aquanites your character will sometimes become invisible when you are attacked and lose life points. This will even happen while the Protect from Magic prayer is activated.
*This is one of the few higher-levelled Slayer monsters that do not have access to the [[Rare drop table]].
