Breed fish, dolphins, squids, and glow squids — because vanilla Minecraft forgot about them.
Drop kelp near two fish of the same species and watch the magic happen.
- Supports all four vanilla species: Cod, Salmon, Pufferfish, Tropical Fish
- Fish must be within 5 blocks of the dropped kelp
- Tropical fish have variant inheritance — 80% chance to look like a parent, 20% random
- Heart particles + XP orbs on successful breeding
- Stack-friendly — only 1 kelp consumed per breed
- 5 minute breeding cooldown | 30 minute maturation cooldown
Vanilla-style love mode breeding for dolphins.
- Right-click an adult dolphin with tropical fish to enter love mode (60 seconds)
- Two love-mode dolphins within 3 blocks breed automatically
- Baby dolphins grow naturally using vanilla mechanics
- Tropical fish not consumed in creative mode
- 5 minute breeding cooldown
Drop-based breeding for the ocean's forgotten mobs.
- Drop raw cod near squids, or glow lichen near glow squids to trigger love mode
- Two love-mode squids of the same type within 3 blocks breed automatically
- Squids and glow squids cannot cross-breed
- Baby squids grow naturally using vanilla mechanics
