FAQ

What tool do I need to mine a Red Shulker Box?

A pickaxe is fastest, but any tool or bare hands works — no specific tier is required.

Do I lose the items inside when I mine it?

No. The contents stay stored inside the dropped item, so you can safely relocate a full shulker box.

Can I change the color later?

Yes, dye it again with a different color, or rinse it in a water-filled cauldron to remove the color entirely.

Are shulker boxes guarded?

Nearby piglins become hostile if a player opens or mines a shulker box in the Nether.
