Aquatic Weirdos

The waters are filled with such weird life aren't they? Well i thought the same! This mod is a love letter for all the weird little freaks that live in the sea, oceans, swamps, anywhere with water in the world!

Aquatic Weirdos aims to add new aquatic animals that all look a bit weird. Each one has uses but that is not their main focus.

Spoiler

Man O' War

The Man o' War is an odd siphonophore that can be found floating on the surface of warm oceans. They are extremely poisonous and will give you the Stung effect if you touch them. The Stung effect is a fatal poison that is faster in water. Man o' War tentacles can be sheared off, letting you hang them from ceilings as decoration and as defense. Man o' Wars without any tentacles won't be able to sting anyone. They can be bucketed.

Barreleye

The Barreleye can be found in deep cold oceans. They use their transparent heads to search for predators or prey above. They are one of the few creatures that are immune to the Man o' War's sting. Barreleye will drop themselves upon being killed, they cannot be cooked but eating them will give you the Barrel Sight effect, giving entities behind walls the glow effect. They can be bucketed.

Icefish

Found in frozen oceans, the Icefish has developened an interesting adaptation to protect itself from the cold: Antifreeze Blood! Eating raw Icefish meat will give you the same effect, protecting you from freezing. Icefish spend the mornings resting on the ocean floor and are active only at night. They can be bucketed.

Elephantfish

Elephantfish come in three variants and live in swamps. They use their weird jaws to sense electrical signals. This, naturally makes them great for finding diamonds! Elephantfish will sense nearby Diamonds and start swimming towards it, making particles along the way. They can be bucketed.

Boxer Crab

Boxer Crabs live on the sea floor in warm oceans. They use the anemones they have picked up to poison tropical fish so don't put them in the same tank! Boxer Crabs will also attack players if they get too close. The Anemones of a Boxer Crab can be sheared off to get Clawed Anemones. These items can be used to punch and poison enemies. They can be upgraded with Man o' War tentacles to inflict the Stung effect, or with Wither Roses to inflict Withering! Boxer Crabs are fully aquatic crabs and will dry on land. They can be bucketed.

There is also a new music disc by Skipster122 called "Shore". It can be found in Sunken Ships
