A '''dead coral''' is the dead variant of coral. There are five variants total: tube, brain, bubble, fire, and horn.

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Dead coral can be broken instantly with any tool. {{IN|BE}} it can be obtained only when mined with a [[Silk Touch]] enchanted tool. {{IN|JE}} a Silk Touch [[pickaxe]] is required to obtain dead coral.<ref>{{bug|MC-135783}}</ref>
{{breaking row|Dead Coral|drop=0|horizontal=1}}

=== Post-generation ===
Dead coral is created when [[coral]] is placed out of water. When live coral is placed outside of water, it dies and transforms into its respective dead coral after 3 to 5 seconds. Coral dies even when the [[game rule]] {{cd|randomTickSpeed}} is set to {{cd|0}}.<ref>{{bug|MC-129942|||Invalid}}</ref>

== Usage ==
Dead coral can be used as a building or decoration block.

Dead coral cannot be turned back into living coral.

=== Note blocks ===
All types of dead coral can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce "bass drum" sounds.

== Trivia ==
* On the [[Legacy Console Edition]] (except Xbox One and Nintendo Switch), only the live variants of coral are available. This is due to dead coral being added on ''Bedrock Edition'' in [[Bedrock Edition 1.13.0]], several weeks after the last final update was released on PlayStation 4. 
* Although dead coral is unavailable on Legacy Console Edition, dead variants of [[dead coral block|coral blocks]] and [[dead coral fan|coral fans]] are available on the respective platforms with Update Aquatic or newer.
