'''Coral fans''' are non-solid blocks that come in five variants: tube, brain, bubble, fire, and horn.

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Coral fans can be mined instantly but can be obtained only when mined with a [[Minecraft:Silk Touch]] enchanted tool. Breaking coral fans without Silk Touch destroys the coral fan.
{{breaking row|Coral Fan|drop=0|sprite=coral-fans|horizontal=1}}

=== Natural generation ===
Coral fans naturally generate in [[Minecraft:coral reef]] structures.

{{block distribution}}

=== Post-generation ===
==== Bone meal ====
When [[Minecraft:bone meal]] is {{ctrl|used}} in [[Minecraft:warm ocean]] biomes, it has a chance of generating coral fans. {{IN|je}}, coral wall fans also have a chance of generating on the sides of blocks.

=== Coral wall fans ===
Coral wall fans item form cannot be obtained through vanilla means {{in|bedrock}} except through add-ons or inventory editing.{{info needed|Research on this item would be appreciated: can we get a dedicated "technical blocks" history page?}}

== Usage ==
Coral fans can be used for building or as decoration blocks.

=== Placement ===
All coral fans can be placed on the four sides and the top surface of blocks; they cannot be placed on the bottom surface.

==== Water ====
In order for coral fans to stay alive, they must be placed in [[Minecraft:water]]. {{IN|java}}, coral fans can also be placed outside of water as long as one of the blocks surrounding it contains water. If placed outside of water, they transform into their respective [[Minecraft:dead coral fan]] immediately{{only|bedrock}}<ref>{{Bug|MCPE-57196|3=Coral fans die instantly when placed outside of water, unlike coral plants}}</ref> or after 3 to 4.95 seconds{{only|Java}}. Once a coral fan dies, it is not possible to turn a dead coral fan back into a live coral fan.

=== Pushing with pistons ===
Live coral fans cannot be pushed by [[Minecraft:piston]]s (attempting to do so results in the coral fan breaking).
