Description

Bubble Coral Block is the full cube version of the living Bubble Coral texture giving the same bumpy bubbly look but in a solid block format. It is perfect for builders who want larger reef elements or patterned surfaces that read well at a distance while still maintaining an underwater theme. Like other living coral it must stay submerged to keep its vibrant colour and when taken into air it will die and become a dead coral block which is dull and flat. Players use Bubble Coral Block in large underwater sculptures reef walls and aquarium backgrounds where a consistent coral pattern is needed. It simplifies building large reef areas because the full block covers more space with the natural coral texture and pairs well with coral fans and other coral block types to create varied and realistic reefs. The block is decorative and does not have special mechanical functions but its visual power makes it a common choice for themed ocean builds and for showpiece underwater gardens.
