Minecraft pufferfish: how it defends itself and what it is for
The pufferfish lives in warm and lukewarm oceans and is considerably rarer than tropical fish. Unlike other fish, it does not swim in schools.
It never comes after you, but it defends itself: when a player, an axolotl or any non-aquatic mob gets within 2 blocks, it puffs up in two stages and, fully inflated, damages and poisons whoever is next to it. Move away and it slowly shrinks back to normal.
You can catch it with a water bucket and place it elsewhere, where it never despawns. It does not breed and suffocates out of water like any fish.
It has important uses: it is the ingredient for Water Breathing potions and the food that tames a nautilus, each fish with a one in three chance. Eating it raw is a bad idea, because it poisons you.
Axolotls and nautiluses actively hunt it, so in an aquarium it is best kept apart.
