A bucket of fish is an item that allows numerous fish mobs to be collected by simply tapping the fish itself with an empty bucket. The top texture of the bucket will change on what type of fish is collected.

Trading[]

Fishermen villagers will sell a bucket of cod in exchange for emeralds.

Usage[]

Pressing use with a bucket of fish places a water source block, and spawns the corresponding fish back into the world, leaving an empty bucket in the player's inventory. For buckets of tropical fish, the patterns and color of the tropical fish are remembered and stored in the bucket. Placing a bucket of fish in the Nether causes the same particles to appear that generate when a normal water bucket is placed in the Nether, and the fish is spawned alone.

Fish caught in buckets then released do not despawn, unlike fish that spawn naturally in oceans.

If a bucket of fish is inside a dispenser, the dispenser spawns the fish and water block in front of it upon activation.

If a bucket of fish is named a certain name through an anvil, the fish inside will display that name as if it were named with a name tag. Alternatively, if a named fish is captured with a bucket of water, the resulting fish bucket shares a name with the captured fish.
