Minecraft:Sea Pickle: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 16:03, 9 April 2026

Template:For Template:Infobox block A sea pickle is a Minecraft:block found in warm oceans. While in Minecraft:water it emits light, and can be spread using bone meal if placed on a living coral block. Up to four sea pickles can be placed in one block space, which affects the amount of light produced while in water.

Obtaining

Breaking

Sea pickles can be broken instantly with any tool including hands. Each colony drops 1-4 sea pickles, depending on how many are in the colony (so a colony of 3 pickles drops 3 pickles).

Template:Breaking row

Natural generation

Sea pickle colonies generate on the bottom of warm oceans and are found on top of coral blocks in coral reefs. Each chunk has Template:Frac chance to generate sea pickle colonies. They can be found in groups of 1 up to 4.

Sea pickles may also be found in desert village houses as decorative blocks that resemble pottery.

Template:Block distribution

Trading

Wandering traders may sell 1 sea pickle for 2 Minecraft:emeralds. Template:Trade sources

Mob loot

Template:IN, wandering traders have a chance of 8.5% (increased by 1% per level of Looting) to drop 1 sea pickle when killed while showing the item as trade offer, if the player holds an Minecraft:emerald.

Post-generation

Using bone meal on an underwater sea pickle placed on top of a living coral block creates more sea pickles. Specifically, the colony to which bone meal is applied increases in size, and any living coral block within a taxicab distance of 2 blocks (horizontally from either the coral block or the sea pickle itself) can generate 1-3 sea pickles. They do not grow or spread naturally, and do not require light.

Usage

Placing

Sea pickles can be placed on top of most solid Minecraft:blocks, as well as non-solid blocks, up to four per block, similar to turtle eggs or Minecraft:candles. More information regarding placement on transparent blocks can be found at Opacity/Placement.

Template:IN, unlike turtle eggs, sea pickles can only be placed on complete blocks.

Light

Sea pickles produce light when underwater. A single pickle produces a light level of 6, and a colony produces an additional 3 levels per pickle (so 4 sea pickles produces a light level of 15). When they produce light, there is a pale green glow at the end of the pickle.

Sea pickles		Light level

2	File:Sea Pickle 2 JE1 BE1.png	9
3	File:Sea Pickle 3 JE1 BE1.png	12
4	File:Sea Pickle 4 JE1 BE1.png	15

When the Render Dragon Features for Creators experiment is enabled in Minecraft:Minecraft Preview, the center of lit sea pickles emits colored point lighting with Template:Color. This causes the bottom part of sea pickles to render a small square shadow.

Growing

Bone meal can be Template:Control on sea pickles if they are underwater and planted on living coral blocks. This increases their number on that block, and they spread to empty areas underwater above other living coral blocks. They can spread to the original sea pickle's level or one level below, out to a horizontal taxicab distance of 2.

Composting

Placing a sea pickle into a Minecraft:composter has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

Trivia

Sea pickles are based on real-life Template:W, which are free-floating colonial Template:W with blue-green Template:W, more properly known as pyrosomes. Unlike the Minecraft version, they are not stationary organisms and are an entirely different species.<ref>Template:Mcnet</ref>
