Coral is a solid block which comes in five colored variants: blue, pink, purple, red, and yellow.
Dead Coral is a solid block which comes in five different variants: blue, pink, purple, red and yellow.
Coral Plants are blocks that can only be placed underwater. Like coral, they come in five variants, but they do not have a dead variant.
Obtaining
Coral will only drop as an item if mined with any type of pickaxe. Otherwise, it will drop nothing.

Coral and coral plants are not obtainable in Survival mode, and can only be accessed with the Creative inventory or using commands.
Usage

Dead coral
In order for coral to stay alive, at least 1 of the blocks touching it must be water. If it's placed outside of water, it will instantly and irreversibly transform into its respective dead coral.

| June 28, 2010 | Notch mentioned on his blog: "I tried adding corals, but it’s really hard to draw a single block that looks like corals, since it’s really more about crazy amounts of variation and diversity. But I do know that the corals will have tiny fish particles around them." | ||||
| release | |||||
| November 18, 2017 | Coral were shown in a clip at MineCon Earth. Yellow coral, red coral, blue coral, and dead coral were shown, and in the clip slab variants of coral were shown as well. | ||||
