Tropical Fish Spawn Egg — Minecraft block

Tropical Fish Spawn Egg is a Creative-only item in Minecraft that spawns a single tropical fish when used on a block or in water. The Tropical Fish Spawn Egg has a white base with orange spots — the standard two-tone coloring shared by aquatic spawn eggs. Introduced in Java Edition 1.13 (the Update Aquatic) and Bedrock Edition 1.4.0, the Tropical Fish Spawn Egg cannot be crafted, mined, or obtained in Survival; it appears only in the Creative inventory or through the /give command. Each use produces one random tropical fish: Java Edition rolls from 3,072 possible variants (two body shapes, six patterns, 16 base colors, and 16 pattern colors — a coloring bug lets black appear), while Bedrock Edition has 2,700 naturally occurring variants; 90% of spawns pick one of the 22 uniquely named preset varieties such as the Clownfish.

Players use the Tropical Fish Spawn Egg to stock aquariums, decorate ocean builds, and feed pet axolotls, which hunt tropical fish in the wild. Wild tropical fish spawn naturally in warm, lukewarm, and deep lukewarm oceans, in mangrove swamps, and in lush caves, but the Tropical Fish Spawn Egg lets builders place them anywhere instantly. Spawn the fish directly into water, since a tropical fish suffocates on land — aim the Tropical Fish Spawn Egg at a water source block for the best result.
