FAQ
What tool do I need to mine a Tube Coral Fan?
Any tool breaks it instantly, but only a Silk Touch tool collects it as the living block; otherwise it drops nothing.
Can it be placed outside water?
In Java Edition it survives briefly outside water as long as an adjacent block contains water, but dies within roughly 3 to 5 seconds without one.
Can pistons push a live coral fan?
No, live coral fans cannot be pushed by pistons.
Does the dead variant revert back to living?
No, once a coral fan dies it permanently becomes its dead counterpart with no way to revive it.
