About this Mod
Bucket of Nautilus is a new item and a simple mod that allows you to capture any type of nautilus – regular, zombie, or coral zombie – by right-clicking it with a water bucket.
The captured nautilus is safely stored in your inventory, ready to be released anywhere you like.
This makes it easy to transport nautiluses for building underwater bases, creating aquatic habitats, decorating aquariums, or designing your own ocean world.
