About

The Bucket of Tropical Fish is an item that holds a single tropical fish. You obtain it by using an empty bucket on a tropical fish while swimming in water. When placed, it releases the fish back into the world as a living mob.

This bucket does not stack, so each fish requires its own bucket. Admins use the item ID minecraft:tropical_fish_bucket to spawn or distribute them. The legacy ID minecraft:clownfish_bucket remains in older server versions but is superseded by the current name.
