Infested Chiseled Stone Bricks look identical to ordinary chiseled stone bricks but conceal a hostile silverfish. Breaking one without Silk Touch destroys the block and releases the silverfish to attack, making stronghold libraries and similar decorated rooms a hidden hazard.

Uses

  • Silk Touch Harvesting — Mining with Silk Touch yields the clean, non-infested chiseled stone bricks instead of releasing a silverfish, letting builders safely reuse the decorative block.

Found In

  • Strongholds — Generates among chiseled stone brick library and corridor decorations inside strongholds.
  • Igloo Basements — Occasionally found mixed into the hidden basement rooms beneath igloos.

FAQ

What happens if I mine it without Silk Touch?

The block breaks, drops nothing, and an aggressive silverfish spawns in its place and immediately attacks.

Can I tell it apart from normal chiseled stone bricks?

Visually no, but placing a note block on it produces a flute or harp sound instead of the bass drum sound of regular stone bricks.

Does breaking one trigger nearby infested blocks?

Attacking the spawned silverfish can cause nearby infested blocks to break as well, chain-spawning more silverfish.

What tool mines it fastest?

A pickaxe of any tier. It requires no minimum tier to drop and breaks in about half the time of a normal stone brick.
