If you're using Vortex or another mod manager, just drag and drop the mod folder into your Subnautica mods directory.
Make sure your game is updated to a version compatible with the mod—since it's from 2019, test in a new save first.
Remember that Reapers will still roar and swim close, so don't be startled—they're just curious now.
