The Candlefish is a fish mob that swims in lava.
Spawning[]
Candlefish only spawn when the player fishes in lava using one of the Hauling rods. The lava can be in any biome (click here for specifics). They do not spawn naturally otherwise.
If a Candlefish is spawned in manually, they will stay spawned until the player gets a large enough distance away from them, in which case they can despawn.
Behavior[]
Candlefish behave similarly to the fish mobs of vanilla Minecraft, with the main exception that they swim in lava instead of water.
Candlefish swim around in random directions. They are completely passive, never attacking the player under any circumstances.
If brought out of the lava, they will flop around like vanilla fish mobs do. After a while, they will start taking damage and die. They cannot survive in water, and will flop around in the water as if they weren't in a fluid at all (except for the fact they sink slower).
In addition to not taking damage in lava, Candlefish are also immune to fire damage.
