A '''Nether fungus''' is a mushroom-like block that generates in [[Minecraft:the Nether]]. There are two types of fungi: [[Minecraft:Crimson Fungus|crimson]] and [[Minecraft:Warped Fungus|warped]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
A fungus can be [[Minecraft:instant mining|mined instantly]] and always drops itself. Mining a [[Minecraft:flower pot]] containing a fungus drops both items separately.
{{breaking row|Nether Fungi|link=Nether Fungus|horizontal=1}}

=== Natural generation ===
Fungi naturally generate in the [[Minecraft:crimson forest]] and [[Minecraft:warped forest]] biomes, with each fungus most commonly generating in its respective biome and less frequently in the other.

{{block distribution}}

=== Mob loot ===
An [[Minecraft:enderman]] holding a fungus drops the fungus upon death.

=== Generated loot ===
{{LootChestItem|crimson-fungus}}

=== Post-generation ===
Applying [[Minecraft:bone meal]] to [[Minecraft:nylium]] causes fungi to appear nearby, similar to [[Minecraft:flower]]s on [[Minecraft:grass block]]s. While fungi of both types and other Nether vegetation can generate this way, they are more likely to be the same type as the nylium.

== Usage ==
=== Placement ===
[[File:FungusPlaceBlock.png|thumb|All of the blocks that fungi can be placed on.]]
Fungi may be placed on [[Minecraft:grass block]]s, [[Minecraft:dirt]], [[Minecraft:coarse dirt]], [[Minecraft:podzol]], [[Minecraft:farmland]], [[Minecraft:rooted dirt]], [[Minecraft:moss block]]s, [[Minecraft:nylium]], [[Minecraft:mycelium]], [[Minecraft:soul soil]], [[Minecraft:mud]] and [[Minecraft:muddy mangrove roots]]. Attempting to place it on any other block fails. Fungi requires a solid block underneath it, and pops off and drops itself if it is no longer supported.

Fungi can also be placed in [[Minecraft:flower pot]]s.

=== Growth ===
When [[Minecraft:bone meal]] is {{ctrl|used}} on a fungus that is planted on matching [[Minecraft:nylium]], it has a 40% chance to grow into its tall equivalent (similar to [[Minecraft:sapling]]s and [[Minecraft:mushroom]]s). Crimson and warped fungi grow into crimson and warped [[Minecraft:huge fungi]], respectively. The [[Minecraft:log|stem]], [[Minecraft:shroomlight]], or [[Minecraft:wart block]]s may replace certain blocks including [[Minecraft:slab]]s and [[Minecraft:torch]]es.

=== Breeding ===
Crimson fungus can be used to breed [[Minecraft:hoglin]]s and keep them from despawning, but feeding hoglins does not stop them from attacking the player. Warped fungus can be used to breed [[Minecraft:strider]]s and lead them around if crafted as a [[Minecraft:warped fungus on a stick]].

=== Hoglins ===
All [[Minecraft:hoglin]]s, regardless of age, avoid and run up to 7 [[Minecraft:block]]s away from warped fungus when it is placed on a block or inside of a [[Minecraft:flower pot]]{{only|JE}}<ref>{{bug|MCPE-75166||Hoglins are not repelled by warped fungus in flower pots}}</ref>. Held warped fungi and warped fungi on sticks do not have this effect.

=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage|Crimson Fungus, Warped Fungus}}

=== Composting ===
Placing a fungus into a [[Minecraft:composter]] has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1.
