You're not the only new explorer of the updated oceans, mind. We've filled the seas with new types of fish! Above is the delightful pufferfish, which filled me with delightful poison because I was too busy taking that screenshot to swim away in time :(

Tom Stone[1]

Fish are common passive mobs found in oceans and rivers. They come in 4 main variants: cod, salmon, puffer fish, and tropical fish.

Spawning

Cod spawn in normal, cold, and lukewarm oceans, and their deep variants.

Puffer fish and tropical fish spawn in lukewarm, warm, and deep lukewarm oceans.

Salmon spawn in cold and frozen oceans, and their deep variants. Unlike the other types of fish, they also spawn in normal and frozen rivers. Salmon can spawn in 3 size which is small, normal and large.

Drops

Fish drop 1 of their item form when killed: raw cod, raw salmon, pufferfish or clownfish. Cod and salmon will drop the cooked variant of their item if killed while on fire. A tropical fish will drop clownfish no matter what its type, pattern or colors are. Fish will also drop a bone (25% chance), also different size of salmon drop different amount of bone (up to 3).‌[Bedrock Edition only]

Behavior

Cod, salmon and tropical fish tend to swim in schools of fish (a maximum of nine cod, six salmon, and nine of the same tropical per school). Salmon are able to jump up waterfalls.[verify]

The player may collect a fish by using a water bucket on it, which gives the player a fish bucket. When that fish bucket is used against a block, it empties the bucket, placing water with that fish swimming in it.

Weaknesses

None of the fish are able to survive out of water. Outside of water, they flop around like guardians for a while until eventually they start to suffocate and die like squid. Cod, salmon and tropical fish will flip around on their sides. They will rotate when flipping.‌[Bedrock Edition only] Fish cannot swim or breathe in cauldron water.[2]

Fish have a weakness to weapons that have the Impaling enchantment, which also affects squid, turtles, drowned, guardians, elder guardians, and dolphins.

Guardians will attack fish within range, like when attacking squid.

Defenses

Pufferfish will puff up when approached by a player in any gamemode[3], Drowned, or any non-water mob in a 5x5x5 cube around the fish, going from unpuffed, then semi-puffed, to fully puffed‌[Java Edition only], or instantly to the fully-puffed state‌[Bedrock Edition only]. Pufferfish are technically passive mobs but going near one when fully puffed will inflict the player/mob with seven seconds of Poison, and touching them in their puffed form will deal damage separate from the poison. Pufferfish also instantly puff up to their fullest form after taking any kind of damage.‌[Bedrock Edition only]

Tropical fish varieties

Wild Tropical Fish Variants

The 22 common varieties of tropical fish.
top: White SunStreak, Red-White Kob, Yellow Stripey, White-Gray Dasher
second row: Teal-Rose Dasher, Lime-Sky Brinely, Red-White Betty, Gray-Red Snooper, Red-White Blockfish, White-Yellow Flopper
third row: Rose-Sky Spotty, Plum-Yellow Blockfish, White-Red Clayfish, White-Yellow Spotty, White-Gray Glitter, White-Orange Clayfish
bottom: Orange-Gray Stripey, Gray Flopper, Gray-Sky SunStreak, White-Gray Brinely, Blue-Gray SunStreak, Orange-White Kob

When tropical fish spawn in the wild, 90% of the time they will come in one of the 22 varieties seen on the right, and the other 10% of the time their patterns, size and colors will be completely random, drawn from any of 2 shapes, 15 colors, 6 patterns, and 15 colors for the pattern. These result in 2,700 naturally-occurring combinations. With commands, the player can summon tropical fish without patterns, or with black as one or both of their colors, giving a further 404 possible combinations.

Tropical fish picked up with buckets will also have names assigned to them, such as Yellow Brinely or Lime-Gray Flopper, which display as part of the bucket's name.‌[Bedrock Edition only] Their colors are mostly named according to the colored block names, though with a few exceptions:

  • White
  • Orange
  • Magenta
  • Sky
  • Yellow
  • Lime
  • Rose
  • Gray
  • Silver
  • Teal
  • Plum
  • Blue
  • Brown
  • Green
  • Red

The base color will come first, and if the pattern color is different, it will come after that. Lastly, the fish bucket will be given a name according to the shape and pattern of the fish:

Flopper Glitter Betty
Stripey Blockfish Clayfish
Tropical Fish Patterns
Kob Snooper Brinely
SunStreak Dasher Spotty

Data values

See also: Chunk format

Cod and salmon have entity data associated with them that contain various properties of the mob. Their entity IDs are minecraft:cod and minecraft:salmon.

Puffer fish and tropical fish have additional entity data, beyond what other fish have. Their entity IDs are minecraft:pufferfish and minecraft:tropical_fish[Java Edition only] or minecraft:tropicalfish[Bedrock Edition only].

History

alpha
June 28, 2010Notch mentioned that fish might be a feature of coral, if he were able to add coral: "... I do know that the corals will have tiny fish particles around them."
October 4, 2010Fish were a passive mob that Notch showed interest in adding. In the promotional graphic for the Halloween Update, Notch indicated he would add fish. However, they were only added as an item; there was no code for a fish mob.
release
October 5, 2012Fish were jokingly teased in the fake snapshot 12marc40awesome, along with coral and "fish blocks".
April 13, 2013When Jon Kågström was asked in his AMA on Reddit, "What mob would you like to implement into the game?" He responded, "I would like to add birds, fish and tree animals to make it more alive. However this will take some time before it can be done."
July 31, 2013During Notch's AMA on Reddit, when asked about what happened to his plans of adding fish as a mob, he responded, "Oh yeah, the fish!"
November 18, 2017File:TeasedFish.jpegTwo fish mobs, presumably early tropical fish, were shown off in a clip presented at MineCon#MineCon Earth.

A '''warped fungus on a stick''' is an item that can be used to control saddled [[strider]]s.

=== Mobs ===
A [[zombified piglin]] that spawns as a strider jockey holds a warped fungus on a stick instead of a {{ItemLink|golden sword}}, and has an 8.5%{{Only|java|short=y}} or 25%{{Only|bedrock|short=y}} chance to drop it if killed by a player or tamed [[wolf]], or upon death when angry. chance is increased by 1%{{Only|java|short=y}} or 5%{{Only|bedrock|short=y}} per level of Looting, for a maximum of 11.5%{{Only|java|short=y}} or 40%{{Only|bedrock|short=y}} with Looting III.

== Usage ==
[[File:Strider riding.gif|A [[player]] shown using a warped fungus on a stick to ride a [[strider]] (click to see animation).|thumb|350px]]
Similar to how a [[carrot on a stick]] is used to control [[pig]]s, the [[player]]s can use a warped fungus on a stick to control a [[strider]]. To do this, the player simply holds the [[item]] in one hand and any nearby striders within view is attracted toward the player. If mounted on a [[saddle]]d strider, the strider moves in the direction the player is facing while holding the warped fungus on a stick. Right clicking with the item makes the strider go faster, but reduces the item's durability by 1 for every speed boost. If the item durability reaches 0, it turns into a fishing rod.

Due to a strider's ability to walk on [[lava]], this is a beneficial [[tools|tool]] for using striders as a safe transport across [[the Nether]]'s terrain, which is otherwise considered difficult to traverse.

=== Enchantments ===
A warped fungus on a stick can receive the following enchantments, but only through an [[anvil]]:

A '''tool''' is an [[item]] used by the [[player]] while held to perform actions faster and more efficiently, to gather materials not obtainable by hand, to gain information, or to perform completely new actions. With the exception of the [[clock]], [[compass]], empty [[bucket]], and [[lead]], tools do not stack in the inventory. Tools can be repaired; see [[Item repair]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Mob loot ===
{{main|Drops#Mob drops|title1=Drops}}
Some tools can be obtained by killing mobs that carry the equipment.

=== Crafting ===
Most tools can be obtained through crafting.
{{:Crafting/Tools}}

=== Upgrading ===
[[Netherite]] tools can be obtained only through upgrading.

}}

== Usage ==
=== Best tools ===
{{main|Breaking#Best tools|title1=Breaking}}

Many blocks have a preferred tool to break them. Some blocks can be broken only with certain tools. The tool's material also affects how fast a block is mined. Materials from worst to best in terms of mining speed are wooden, stone, iron, diamond, netherite, gold.

=== Item durability ===
{{main|Durability}}

Different tools have different amounts of durability. Some uses require more durability to be used than others. A tool's durability is also affected by its material. Materials from worst to best in terms of durability are gold, wooden, stone, iron, diamond, netherite.

Some tools are not block-breaking tools: This includes bows, fishing rods, carrots on sticks, flint & steel, and buckets. Such tools are no better than bare fists at breaking blocks, but they do not take damage from doing so—they take damage from being used in their own intended manners.

=== Item enchantability ===
Materials from worst to best in terms of [[enchantability]] are stone, diamond, iron, wooden/netherite, gold.

=== Smelting ===
{{main|Smelting}}

Iron or golden tools can be smelted into [[nugget]]s.
{{Smelting|showname=1|head=1|Any iron tools|Iron Nugget|0,1}}
{{Smelting|showname=1|foot=1|Any golden tools|Gold Nugget|0,1}}

; Fuel
* Wooden tools can be used as a fuel in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1 item per tool.
* A [[fishing rod]] can be used as fuel in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1.5{{only|java|short=1}}/1{{only|bedrock|short=1}} items per fishing rod.

== Trivia ==
* Gold tools are actually ranked as superior to diamond tools on the [[Legacy Console Edition]]'s crafting screen.
* Wooden tools can be burned in a furnace regardless of its durability; this means the player can burn a wooden tool that has only 1 use left.

'''Coal''' is a mineral [[item]] mainly obtained from [[Coal Ore|coal ore]]. It is primarily used for crafting [[torches]] and [[Campfire|campfires]], as well as [[fuel]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Chest loot ===
{{see also|Coal Ore#Natural generation}}
{{LootChestItem|coal}}

=== Mining ===

[[Coal ore]] are mined using a [[pickaxe]] and drops 1 piece of coal. If the pickaxe is enchanted with [[Fortune]], it may drop an extra piece per level of Fortune, up to a maximum of 4 with Fortune III.

=== Mob loot ===

[[Wither skeleton]]s have a {{Frac|1|3}} chance of dropping a single coal upon death. The maximum amount of coal is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]]. The chance of a wither skeleton ''not'' dropping any coal can be found using the formula <code>2 / (Looting Level + 3)</code>. For example, Looting III gives a {{frac|1|3}} chance of not dropping any coal. All other amounts have an equal chance of occurring.

=== Crafting ===

== Usage ==

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage|Coal}}

=== Fuel ===

When used in a [[furnace]] as a fuel, a piece of coal lasts 80 seconds (smelting up to 8 items), like [[charcoal]]. Coal used as fuel lasts more than 5 times longer than [[wood planks]] or [[wood]] logs used as fuel, being more efficient than any other use of wood for smelting {{in|je}}, but outstripped by [[wooden slabs]] {{in|be}}. 

Coal and charcoal are also the only fuels accepted by [[Minecart with Furnace|furnace minecart]]s. They provide approximately four minutes of transit each.

=== Trading ===

Novice-level fisherman [[villager]]s have a 50% chance to buy 10 coal for one [[emerald]].

{{IN|java}}, novice-level armorer and toolsmith villagers have a 40% chance of offering to buy 15 coal for one emerald. Novice-level weaponsmith villagers and apprentice-level butcher villagers have {{frac|2|3}} chance of offering to buy 15 coal for one emerald.

{{IN|bedrock}}, novice-level armorer, toolsmith, and weaponsmith villagers and apprentice-level butcher villagers buy 15 coal for one emerald.

[[trading|Trade]]s that involve coal cannot be substituted by [[charcoal]].
