Coral generated in warm oceans

Coral can be broken instantly by hand, but can be obtained only when mined with a Minecraft:Silk Touch enchanted tool. Mining coral does not decrease the Silk Touch tool's Minecraft:durability. Template:Breaking row

Natural generation

Coral naturally generates in Minecraft:coral reef structures found in Minecraft:warm ocean biomes.

Template:Block distribution

Post-generation

When using Minecraft:bone meal on Minecraft:dirt, Minecraft:coarse dirt, Minecraft:sand, Minecraft:red sand, Minecraft:gravel, or Minecraft:clay in Minecraft:warm ocean biomes, coral generates in place of some of the Minecraft:seagrass in a 5×5 area. Template:IN, the same can happen in any biome as long as bone meal is used in a water source above the aforementioned solid blocks.

Usage

Coral can be used as a building or decoration block.

Placement

In order for coral to stay alive, at least one of the blocks surrounding it must be Minecraft:water or a waterlogged block. If placed outside of water, it dies and transforms into its respective Minecraft:dead coral after 3 to 4.95 secondsTemplate:Only or 2 to 9.95 secondsTemplate:Only. Coral dies even when the Minecraft:game rule Template:Cd is set to Template:Cd.<ref>Template:Bug</ref> Once a coral turns into its dead variant, it is not possible to turn it back into a live variant.
