Minecraft tropical fish: where to find it and how many variants exist
Tropical fish live in warm and lukewarm oceans and their deep versions, in mangrove swamps and in lush caves. In Java they spawn in groups of 8 between Y levels 50 and 63 in oceans and mangroves, while in lush cave aquifers they can appear at any height. The schools they swim in hold at most 7 fish, and they can swim against the current.
What sets them apart is the number of designs. There are 22 preset variants, each with its own name, and in Java 90% of wild schools are one of them. The other 10% are rolled at random from 2 shapes, 6 patterns, 16 base colors and 16 pattern colors. Black is never supposed to appear because it hides the eyes, but a bug allows it, which is why Java has 3,072 natural combinations instead of the intended 2,880. Bedrock has 2,700.
To keep one, use a water bucket on it. In Bedrock the fish's name goes on the bucket itself, while in Java it shows in the item tooltip along with its type and colors. Emptying the bucket puts it back in the water, and a fish placed that way never despawns. It cannot be bred, so the only way to get a specific design is to go and find it.
Out of water it flops around for a while and then suffocates, and it cannot swim in cauldron water either. Axolotls attack it on sight. Killed by you or a tamed wolf, it drops 1 to 3 experience.
