Overview
Minecraft classifies Dead Bubble Coral Fan as an underwater block. A hardness of 0 means it is one of the quicker blocks to clear. Mine it with a wooden pickaxe or better, or you get no drop at all.
Light passes through it, so it will not darken the space behind it. It offers almost no protection from explosions (0 blast resistance). A full stack holds 64.
It is not used in any crafting recipe.
How long it takes to break
Hardness 0 puts Dead Bubble Coral Fan at 0 seconds a block bare-handed, or 0 seconds with the right tool at netherite tier.
It will break below wooden, and you will get nothing for it. That combination of time spent and drop lost is the classic mining mistake.
Each Efficiency level adds level² + 1 to the tool's speed; against a block this soft, instant mining arrives after only a level or two.
| Tool | No enchantment | Efficiency III | Efficiency V |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hand * | instant | instant | instant |
| Wooden | instant | instant | instant |
| Stone | instant | instant | instant |
| Iron | instant | instant | instant |
| Diamond | instant | instant | instant |
| Netherite | instant | instant | instant |
