This article is about the storage block. For the hostile End city mob, see Shulker. For the item that drops from the mob, see Shulker Shell.

A shulker box is a block that can store and transport items.

Obtaining

Breaking

Shulker Boxes can be mined with any tool or by hand, but using a pickaxe is the quickest method.

Name Ingredients Crafting recipe Description
Shulker Box Shulker Shell +
Chest

Shulker Box Any Shulker Box +
Matching Dye


The shulker box retains its contents. If it was renamed on an anvil, it will also retain its name.

Creative

When instantly mined in Creative mode, shulker boxes will drop as an item if there are items stored within, unless /gamerule doTileDrops is set to "false". In Legacy Console Edition, this is only the case if it is renamed.

Usage

A shulker box has 27 inventory slots, the same as a chest.

Shulker boxes keep their items when broken, which can be retrieved when placed again. This is different from other containers, which drop their contained items as item entities when broken. Shulker boxes will drop themselves as an item if pushed by pistons, and can be placed using dispensers. When a shulker box with items inside is held or in a container's inventory, the items will be listed as properties.

Item propertiesofficial

Items inside the shulker box are listed below the block type properties.

A shulker box's item can be fed or removed by a hopper.

Shulker boxes can be stored in all containers except for other shulker boxes.

When placed on a wall or ceiling, shulker boxes will face and open sideways/upside-down. Shulker boxes cannot be opened if a solid opaque block is on their top surface, similar to a chest. For example, if a shulker box is facing upside-down and a solid opaque block is below it, the shulker box cannot be opened.

Shulker boxes, unlike chests, cannot be opened with a transparent block above them.

By default, the GUI of a shulker box is labeled "Shulker Box", which can be changed by naming it in an anvil or by changing the CustomName tag using the /data command.

Undyeing

Dyed shulker boxes can be undyed using a cauldron.‌[Java and Legacy Console editions only] To do this, use a dyed shulker box on a cauldron that has water in it. This will cause the cauldron's water level to decrease by 1, and the shulker box will turn into an undyed one.

The '''Reality vision''' was a joke [[helmet]].

== Usage ==
Reality vision was equipped via the [[helmet]] slot. When equipped, it showed a [[wikipedia:Mini-map|minimap]] in the bottom-center of the screen (which moved when the [[player]]'s camera moves). The minimap showed all [[chunk]]s that were currently rendered. The player's location was represented by a green [[beacon]] beam marker on the map.

It displayed a vision overlay (similar to the [[pumpkin]] overlay). The overlay would change to a new overlay if the player went into third person (unlike the pumpkin overlay), which made the screen appear like an old [[wikipedia:Television|television]] screen. The overlay was called <code>cantseeshit<!-- Do not change this; this is that word that is actually used-->captain.png</code> in the assets folder. It activated a [[Shaders|shader]] when equipped (<code>scan_pincushion</code>).

{{About|the item|the ore|Lapis Lazuli Ore|the mineral block|Lapis Lazuli Block}}

'''Lapis lazuli''' is a mineral required to [[Enchanting|enchant]] items in an [[Enchanting Table|enchanting table]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Mining ===

When mined with a stone [[pickaxe]] or better, [[lapis lazuli ore]] drops 4–9 lapis lazuli. With the [[Fortune]] III enchantment, a single block has a chance of dropping up to 36 items.

=== Crafting ===

=== Villager gifts ===

{{IN|java}}, cleric [[villager]]s give [[player]]s lapis lazuli if they have the [[Hero of the Village]] effect.

=== Trading ===

Apprentice-level cleric villagers sell one lapis lazuli for an [[emerald]] as part of their trades.

{{IN|bedrock}}, [[wandering trader]]s may sell 3 lapis lazuli for an emerald.

=== Chest loot ===
{{see also|Lapis Lazuli Ore#Natural generation}}
{{LootChestItem|lapis-lazuli}}

== Usage ==

=== Enchanting ===

1–3 pieces of lapis lazuli are required to use an [[Enchanting Table|enchanting table]] to enchant an [[items|item]]. More specifically, the enchanting table UI shows 3 options (see [[Enchanting mechanics]] for details): the first, second, and third options cost 1, 2, and 3 lapis lazuli, respectively.

=== Crafting ingredient ===

Lapis lazuli can be used to make [[blocks of lapis lazuli]] and [[blue dye]]. {{IN|bedrock}}, it can also be used directly as a substitute for blue dye.

'''Chains''' are metallic decoration [[block]]s.

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===

Chains can be mined using any [[pickaxe]]. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.
{{breaking row|Chain|Pickaxe|Wood|horizontal=1}}

=== Natural generation ===
Chains generate in [[bastion remnant]]s and sometimes in [[ruined portal]]s that generate in the Nether. They always generate above [[magma cube]] spawners, also found in [[bastion]]s.

Chains can also generate in [[mineshafts]]. They generate on the sides of a wooden bridge (a mid-air corridor) when the distance between the bridge and the highest solid block below it is higher than the distance to the lowest solid block above it. Chains here generate vertically in a pillar between the bridge and the ceiling. The lowest block of the pillar, connecting the chain to the bridge, is always an [[oak fence]].

=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|chain}}

=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
|B1=Iron Nugget
|B2=Iron Ingot
|B3=Iron Nugget
|Output=Chain
|type=Building block
}}

== Usage ==
Chains can be used to suspend [[bell]]s, [[hanging sign]]s, or both types of [[lantern]]s (normal lanterns and soul lanterns), as the chain texture connects to the chain of the lantern seamlessly as if it were part of it, and it connects the hanging sign chains together. Chains do not require a supporting block to be placed whether it is on the top, next to it or at the bottom. It can exist completely free-standing in mid air<ref>{{bug|MC-178791}}</ref> and it can be rotated. Chains connect horizontally or vertically, but not across different orientations (so a chain with N orientation does not connect to a chain with E orientation in the adjacent block).
Horizontal chains one block above a surface may be walked over. Horizontal chains two blocks above a surface prevent players from traveling past them. Vertical chains block travel if targeted directly, but may be skirted.

Precision is required, but chains can be walked on, allowing for inconspicuous, although somewhat costly, bridges.

Chains can be pushed by [[piston]]s without being broken.

'''Fire charges''' are items that can be {{control|used}} as a single-use version of a [[flint and steel]] or shot as a [[small fireball]] from a [[dispenser]].

== Obtaining ==

|Output= Fire Charge, 3
|type= Miscellaneous
}}

=== Bartering ===
[[Piglin]]s may [[barter]] 1 fire charge when given a [[gold ingot]].

== Usage ==
[[File:Natural Fire Charge.png|200px|thumb|Dispensing Fire Charge]]

Fire charges can be used as ammunition for [[dispenser]]s, or as a substitute for [[flint and steel]].

When used, it instantly places a [[fire]], similar to flint and steel. The fire charge is consumed in the process. It can prime [[TNT]], light [[Nether portal|nether portals]], [[Campfire|campfires]], [[Candle|candles]], [[Cake|cakes with candles]] and [[creeper]]s{{only|JE}} like flint and steel.

When a fire charge is fired from a dispenser, it shoots a [[small fireball]].

A '''heart of the sea''' is a rare [[item]] that can be crafted into a [[conduit]].

== Obtaining ==
The heart of the sea must be found. It cannot be crafted or obtained by trading, making it a [[non-renewable resource]].

A heart of the sea is obtained from a [[buried treasure]]. The location is marked with a noticeable red X on a [[Explorer Map|buried treasure map]], which is found in [[Ocean_Ruins|ocean ruins]] and [[Shipwreck|shipwrecks]]. Feeding [[raw cod]] or [[raw salmon]] to a [[dolphin]] causes the dolphin to swim toward the nearest [[buried treasure]], [[shipwreck]], or [[ocean ruins]].

== Trivia ==
* Before the heart of the sea was added to {{el|be}}, there was an entry found in the buried treasure chest loot table named <code>nautilus_core</code>, which was later revealed to be the heart of the sea. Despite the name change, the heart of the sea continues to be referred to as the <code>nautilus_core</code> in most game files.

A '''recovery compass''' is an item used to point to the location of the [[Player|player's]] last death.

== Obtaining ==

=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
|A1= Echo Shard |B1= Echo Shard   |C1= Echo Shard
|A2= Echo Shard |B2= Compass      |C2= Echo Shard
|A3= Echo Shard |B3= Echo Shard   |C3= Echo Shard
|Output= Recovery Compass
|type= Tool
}}

== Usage ==
When held by a player, the recovery compass will point towards the spot where they previously died.

The recovery compass will only work when it is held by a player who has previously died and is in the same dimension as their last death. Otherwise, it will spin around randomly.

Like other items, the recovery compass itself will still drop when a player dies and the <code>keepInventory</code> [[game rule]] is not enabled.

This item is useless on Hardcore mode, as once the player dies, the player cannot respawn.

=== Enchantments ===

A recovery compass can receive the following [[enchantment]]s:

'''Fish''' are aquatic creatures that are found in [[river]] and [[ocean]] biomes.

== Mobs ==
There are four categories of fish mobs in ''Minecraft'': 
*{{EntityLink|Cod}}
*{{EntityLink|Salmon}}
*{{EntityLink|Pufferfish}}
*{{EntityLink|Tropical Fish}} - many color and pattern varieties

In addition, there are other fish-like mobs that have different characteristics from fish: {{EntityLink|Axolotl}}, {{EntityLink|Guardian}}, and {{EntityLink|Elder Guardian}}.

==Obtaining and transporting==
A live fish can be captured by using a [[water bucket]] on a fish, to obtain a [[bucket of fish]], which is the only way to obtain the live mob in item form. Using the bucket of fish on a water source block transfers the fish from the bucket to the body of water. A water bucket may also be used on [[axolotl]]s in this manner.

==Items==
Fish exist in several different item forms. Upon death, fish drop their item form equivalent (cooked if on fire), with a chance to drop a [[bone]]{{only|bedrock}} or [[bone meal]].{{only|java}}

== Spawning ==
Various fish can be found in different [[ocean]] [[biomes]], but only [[salmon]] appear in rivers. Fish can also spawn in player-created bodies of water, as long as they are within a river or ocean biome.

In ''Java Edition'', fish can spawn inside a water block at Y-level 50 to 63 (from 13 blocks below sea level up to inside the block one above it), that also has water above and below it. The spawn block and the block below can be any kind of water, such as a source block, falling water, bubble column, kelp, or even a waterlogged block (as long as the fish can be placed at the bottom center of the spawn block without colliding with anything solid). The block above must be pure water, such as a source block, falling water, or flowing water of any depth. Particularly, the block above cannot also be a bubble column, so fish no longer spawn inside bubble elevators.<ref>{{cite bug|MC|244683|Tropical fish spawn in bubble columns (fixed in 22w07a)}}</ref> 

''Bedrock Edition'' does permit fish to spawn in bubble columns.<ref>{{cite bug|MCPE|73967|Squids, Dolphins, and fish not spawning in bubble columns (fixed in 1.16.20)}}</ref>

Fish can spawn between 24 and 64 block spherical range away from the player.{{only|java}} 

=== Despawning ===
As of [[1.16]], fish can despawn at range of 40 blocks or more from the player, and will instantly despawn more than 64 blocks away, except when spawned using a [[bucket of fish]].

'''Lava''' is a light-emitting [[fluid]] that causes fire [[damage]], mostly found in the [[altitude|lower reaches]] of the [[Overworld]] and [[the Nether]].

== Obtaining ==
Lava blocks do not exist as items (at least {{in|java}}), but can be retrieved with a [[Lava Bucket|bucket]]. {{IN|bedrock}}, they may be obtained as an item via glitches (in old versions), add-ons or inventory editing.

Lava may be obtained [[renewable resource|renewably]] from [[cauldron]]s, as [[pointed dripstone]] with a lava source above it can slowly fill a cauldron with lava.

=== Natural generation ===
During world generation, lava replaces [[air]] blocks generated in [[cave]]s and [[canyon]]s between Y=-55 and Y=-63. [[Aquifer]]s are sometimes filled with lava below Y=0. Lava does not replace air blocks inside [[mineshaft]]s, [[monster room]]s, [[amethyst geode]]s, or [[stronghold]]s.

Lava can also occur as lava flows from a single [[spring]] block, pouring down walls into pools. The spring block can be on the side of a cave, ravine, mineshaft, or stone cliff above ground.

Lava also generates as small [[lava lake]]s, which can be found above Y=0 within any [[biome]].

Two blocks of lava can also be found in plains, snowy plains, and desert [[village]] weaponsmith buildings, or one source in savanna village weaponsmith buildings.

Fifteen blocks of lava can be found in the [[end portal]] room of a [[stronghold]]: 3 along each side wall, and 9 below the portal frame.

Lava also generates in [[woodland mansion]]s: two blocks of lava generate in the "blacksmith room", and 25 blocks of lava generate in a secret "lava room".

In [[the Nether]], lava is more common than [[water]] in the [[Overworld]]. [[Terrain features#Lava sea|Seas of lava]] occur, with sea level at y-level 32, about a quarter of the total height of the Nether (as the usable space in the Nether is 128 blocks tall). They can extend down to about y-level 19-22. Lava also randomly appears [[Spring#Hidden lava|in single blocks]] inside [[netherrack]] formations. Lava is also generated as a single source in well rooms in [[nether fortress]]es. There are also large pockets of lava generated under y-19 and can reach all the way down to bedrock level. These pockets are generally over 12 blocks in height and often connect to a large lava lake on y-32; the size of these pockets in 1.18 can range from the size of a singular pre-1.18 ravine to multiple ravines combined.

Lava generates as [[delta]] shapes, which can be found commonly in the [[basalt deltas]] biome. Lava also generates in [[ruined portal]]s and [[bastion remnant]]s.

=== Post-generation ===
Unlike [[Water#Source blocks|water source blocks]], new lava source blocks cannot be created in a space by two or more adjacent source blocks. However {{in|Java}}, if the [[game rule]] {{cd|lavaSourceConversion}} is set to {{cd|true}}, new lava source blocks can form in a similar way to water source blocks.

== Usage ==
=== Fuel ===
When used in a [[furnace]], a bucket of lava lasts 1000 seconds (100 items).

=== Burning ===
[[File:Inside Lava.png|thumb|What it looks like inside lava.]]
[[File:Under lava fire resistance.png|thumb|What it looks like inside lava using Fire Resistance {{in|java}}.]]

Most [[entity|entities]] take {{hp|4}} damage every half-second while in contact with lava, and are set on [[fire]]. An entity/player in lava will also have its {{code|remainingFireTicks}} set to 300, setting it on fire for 15 seconds. This timer is reset to 300 every tick that the victim spends in lava, so it will only start counting down once the victim leaves the lava. Once the victim does exit the lava source, it will burn for just under 15 seconds, taking fire damage 14 times. This is due to the fact that for the first tick outside of lava, its {{code|remainingFireTicks}} decrease to 299, and entities take fire damage when {{code|remainingFireTicks}} is a multiple of 20 and greater than 0. If the victim touches water or [[rain]] falls on it, the fire is extinguished, but the lava continues to damage them directly.

In addition, a dense [[fog]] effect will be applied for players under lava to obscure vision. This can be slightly mitigated via the [[Fire Resistance]] effect.

An entity/player moving in lava has their horizontal movement speed reduced by 50% and their vertical movement speed reduced by 20%.

{{IN|bedrock}}, a player with the Fire Resistance effect or a total [[Fire Protection]] of 7 or higher does not catch fire. 

[[Vex]]es, [[zoglin]]s, Nether [[mob]]s (excluding [[piglin]]s and [[hoglin]]s), [[Wither|withers]], [[Warden|wardens]], and players or mobs affected by the [[Fire Resistance]] effect are not damaged when touching lava. 

The embers or fireballs that fly out of lava are purely decorative and do not cause fires or damage to entities. When rain falls on lava, the black ember particles appear more frequently.

A player in lava lasts a few seconds before dying:

==== ''Java Edition'' ====
* 2.5 seconds with no armor
* 3.5 seconds with full leather armor, no enchantments
* 4 seconds with full gold armor, no enchantments
* 4.5 seconds with full chain armor, no enchantments
* 5.5 seconds with full iron armor, no enchantments
* 10.5 seconds with full diamond armor, no enchantments
* 11 seconds with full netherite armor, no enchantments

==== Bedrock Edition====
* 2.5 seconds with no armor
* 3.5 seconds with full leather armor, no enchantments
* 4.5 seconds with full gold armor, no enchantments
* 5 seconds with full chain armor, no enchantments
* 6.5 seconds with full iron armor, no enchantments
* 12.5 seconds with full diamond armor, no enchantments
* 12.5 seconds with full netherite armor, no enchantments
If the player is wearing armor enchanted with [[Fire Protection]], they can last even longer. With the maximum bonus, the damage is small enough that the natural healing from a full hunger bar can outpace it {{only|JE|short=1}}, so a player could survive indefinitely as long as they have food and their armor holds up (non-netherite armor is damaged by lava).

Lava can cause fires by turning air blocks to fire blocks.

In order for air above lava to turn to fire, a block adjacent to the air has to be [[Fire#Burning blocks|flammable]], or one of the wood-constructed [[Fire#Non-flammable blocks|non-flammable]] blocks. Since catching fire depends on air blocks, even torches or lava itself can prevent a flammable block from catching fire.  Additionally, not all flammable or wood-constructed blocks can be ignited by lava.

The lava of any depth can start fires this way, whether or not it appears to have a current.

Additional conditions must be met, depending on the edition of Minecraft.

===== Java Edition =====
{{FakeImage|align=right|{{BlockGrid|scale=2|L=lava|w=Oak Planks|p=Orange Stained Glass|s=Light Gray Stained Glass|wwwwwwwww|wwsssssww|wspppppsw|wwspppsww|wwwsLswww|wwwwwwwww}}|Example for JE. The orange area represents areas<br>where air could catch flame if the<br>gray and orange areas contain<br>flammable blocks. The wood<br>is all at a safe distance.
}}

Air block must be in a 3×1×3 area right above the lava or in a 5×1×5 2 blocks above the lava.

Note that an air block in the 5x1x5 area will not catch on fire if the 3x1x3 area is completely filled, even if the latter is filled with flammable blocks.

===== Bedrock Edition =====
The block to be set on fire must be in a 3×3×3 cube centered on a lava block, above which there must be either air or an ignitable block.

=== Flow ===
{{See also|Fluid}}

Lava flows from "source blocks". Most streams or "lava-falls" come from a single source block, but lava lakes (including the "flood lava" in the bottom 10 layers) are composed entirely of source blocks. A source block can be captured only with a [[lava bucket|bucket]].

In the [[Overworld]] and [[the End]], lava travels 3 blocks in any horizontal direction from a source block. Lava flows far more slowly than water (1 block every 30 game ticks, or 1.5 seconds), and sourceless lava flows linger for a short time more. In [[the Nether]], lava travels 7 blocks horizontally and spreads 1 block every 10 game ticks, or 2 blocks per second, which is half the speed as water in the Overworld. In all dimensions, lava spreading uses the same mechanic as water: for every adjacent block it can flow into it tries to find a way down that is reachable in four or fewer blocks from the block it wants to flow to. When found, the flow weight for that direction is set to the shortest path distance to the way down. (This can result in lava flows turning toward dropoffs that they cannot reach in the Overworld and the End.)

Flowing lava destroys the following in its path: [[sapling]]s, [[cobweb]], [[tall grass]], [[dead bush]], [[wheat]], [[flower]]s, [[mushroom]]s, [[snow]] on ground (but snow blocks are immune), [[lily pad]]s, [[vines]], [[lever]]s, [[button]]s, all three types of [[torch]]es, [[redstone]], [[redstone repeater|repeaters]], [[end rod]]s, and [[rail]]s. [[Sugar cane]]s hold back lava, but disappear if the sugar cane's water source is destroyed by the lava. Lava also slows down entities, including those that are normally immune to lava damage.

Using redstone wire, a one-block lava flow can be redirected by supplying power to the source block, which causes it to reset the flow toward the now-nearest terrain depression. It cannot, however, be reversed. This re-calculation is made because of the redstone wire when toggled changes the block from redstone (on) to redstone (off). Whenever a block updates on any side of the lava, the lava re-calculates where to flow, but does not cut off its current direction of flow. In Bedrock Edition using the /setblock command can be used to create stationary lava without the use of barriers. 

Flowing lava can push entities.

=== Lava and water ===
{{Main|Fluid#Mixing}}

Water and lava can produce [[stone]], [[cobblestone]], or [[obsidian]] based on how they interact. Lava can also generate basalt when above soul soil and touching blue ice.

=== Light source ===

Lava blocks emit a [[light]] level of 15.

=== Other ===
[[File:LavaDropletsExample.png|thumb|If there is lava flowing above a [[block]], the lava seeps through.]]

Lava above a non-transparent block (does ''not'' include stairs, fences, and slabs) produces dripping particles on the underside of that block. These droplets do not do anything other than warn the player that a deluge of lava lies above that block. The particles function identically to their water counterparts, except that they drip slower.

Flowing lava can set off tripwires because it breaks placed string. Lava triggers a tripwire only once.

Any [[item (entity)|item]] dropped into lava is immediately destroyed, except for [[netherite]]-related items. [[Lodestone|Lodestones]], however, can be destroyed by lava despite containing netherite.<ref>{{bug|MC-176618|||WAI}}</ref>

Lava can be placed in an empty [[cauldron]].

If lava is above a non-transparent block supporting [[pointed dripstone]], dripping particles are created on the end. These can fill cauldrons with lava.

== Farming ==
{{main|Tutorials/Lava farming}}
Lava farms can be created by placing a lava source block on top of a solid block and a [[pointed dripstone]] and a [[cauldron]] underneath.

Lava spends most of its time as stationary, rather than 'flowing' – regardless of its level, or whether it contains a current downward or to the side.  When specifically triggered by a block update, lava changes to 'flowing', update its level, then change back to stationary.  Lava springs are generated as flowing, and lava lakes are generated as stationary.

* An arrow catches fire when shot into flowing lava, but not still lava.
* [[Water]] flows into lava-occupied blocks as though it were empty space, and vice versa.
* Although lava is a fluid, it is not possible to drown in lava. This applies to all mobs. However, it is still possible to suffocate in lava. This applies to almost every mob.{{only|bedrock}}<ref>{{bug|MCPE-17073}}</ref>
* A player sleeping in a bed cannot be damaged by lava.
* If the lava is changed to be transparent via a [[resource pack]], it does not become transparent.
* {{IN|bedrock}}, lava does not deactivate [[elytra]] like [[water]] does.
* Despite flowing identically to water while in [[the Nether]], it was not possible to create an infinite spring of lava before [[Java Edition 1.19.3|1.19.3]].
** Before Lava source conversion was implemented, the ''Minecraft: Combat Handbook'' (2014) stated the possibility to create infinite sources of lava by simply creating a cross shape with 4 nether bricks and placing lava in the middle. As expected, this turned out to be false, as confirmed by [[Nathan Adams|Dinnerbone]].<ref>[[bugtracker:MC-71088|MC-71088]]</ref>
* Geologically, lava in the Overworld is consistent with [[wikipedia:Felsic lava|felsic lava]], and lava in the Nether is consistent with [[wikipedia:mafic lava|mafic lava]]. Felsic lava is slow, sticky, and does not run as far as mafic lava, which is relatively thin and runny.
* When lava source conversion was implemented, any text where lava was supposed to be said "lave" instead.
** A splash text now says "Made with 'lave'".

A '''recovery compass''' is an item used to point to the location of the [[Player|player's]] last death.

== Obtaining ==

=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
|A1= Echo Shard |B1= Echo Shard   |C1= Echo Shard
|A2= Echo Shard |B2= Compass      |C2= Echo Shard
|A3= Echo Shard |B3= Echo Shard   |C3= Echo Shard
|Output= Recovery Compass
|type= Tool
}}

== Usage ==
When held by a player, the recovery compass will point towards the spot where they previously died.

The recovery compass will only work when it is held by a player who has previously died and is in the same dimension as their last death. Otherwise, it will spin around randomly.

Like other items, the recovery compass itself will still drop when a player dies and the <code>keepInventory</code> [[game rule]] is not enabled.

This item is useless on Hardcore mode, as once the player dies, the player cannot respawn.

=== Enchantments ===

A recovery compass can receive the following [[enchantment]]s:
{| class="wikitable col-2-center col-3-right"
|+
!Name
!Max Level
![[Enchanting|Method]]
|-
|[[Curse of Vanishing]]{{only|bedrock|short=1}}

Issues

Issues relating to "Shulker Box" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there.

Trivia

  • When opened with an entity on top, they will rise up half a block. This stretch also occurs to the box's hitbox.
    • This can be done with a block above the entity on top to create secret passageways.
  • When destroyed by an explosion, the block will always drop as an item.
  • With 37 shulker boxes in a player's inventory, hotbar and off-hand slot, 999 stacks of up to 64 items (up to 63936 total items) can be held. With 36 shulker boxes and an ender chest with 27 shulker boxes in it, 1701 stacks (up to 108864 items) can be held.
    • With strength value 5 llamas, each caravan of 10 llamas with inventories full of shulker boxes can carry up to 4050 stacks (up to 259200 items).
  • When the camera is far enough from a shulker box, the shulker box will be invisible, even though it is still within the render distance.
