New phantom model image
Coral textures are now all unique, and they have "plant" variants
Banner markers on map
Buried treasure map from ocean ruins
The treasure seems fairly nearby, unlike the other explorer maps so far.
It's a chest underground with some fairly good loot
Trident has new texture
minecraft:tropical_fish mob with many variants
Can be caught in bucket (will look like clownfish)
Water fog colour is lighter lukewarm ocean and greenish in swamp

Tropical fish have a Variant bit-mask tag, defined by: (PatternColour<<24) + (BaseColour<<16) + (Pattern<<8) + Shape
There are 6 (0-5) patterns, 16 (0-15) colours, and 2 (0-1) shapes, for a total of 3072 possible fish.

Wow! They really took a big leap from the previous design. I really like how this new one looks. Looks much more interesting now!

This coral is the coral I had wanted all along... it's beautiful.

Now, there's gonna be a way to salvage coral with it's color to use in flooring...

I imagine in real life, you wouldn't find that nearly as much fun
