Cod are common passive mobs found in oceans.
Contents
Spawning[edit]
Cod spawn underwater at a Y level of 12-32 in normal, cold, lukewarm oceans, and their deep variants, in groups of 4-7.
Drops[edit]
Cod drop the following upon death:
- 1 raw cod (1 cooked cod if killed while on fire)[Java Edition only]
- 1 bone meal (5% chance)[Java Edition only]
- 1-2 bones (25% chance)[Bedrock and Legacy Console editions only]
- 1-2 experience orbs when killed by a player or tamed wolf.
Behavior[edit]
Cod tend to swim in schools (a maximum of nine cod per school).
The player may collect a cod by using a water bucket on it, which gives the player a bucket of fish. Cod placed with buckets will not despawn naturally. When that fish bucket is used on a block, it empties the bucket, placing water with the cod swimming in it. An empty bucket may be used as well.[Legacy Console and Bedrock editions only]
Weaknesses[edit]
Cod are not able to survive outside of water. Outside of water, they flip around on their sides like guardians for a while until they eventually start to suffocate and die like squid. In Bedrock Edition and Legacy Console Edition, they will rotate when flipping when out of water. They cannot swim or breathe in cauldron water.[2]
Cod are affected by the Impaling enchantment, like squid, turtles, guardians, elder guardians, dolphins, and all other types of fish (salmon, pufferfish, and tropical fish).
Data values[edit]
