Prismarine blocks in Minecraft, originating from ocean monuments, constitute a visually striking and thematic building material with an unmistakable aquatic flair. With its distinctive scale-like patterns, prismarine comes in several variants, including the smooth and decorative Prismarine Bricks, the darker-hued Dark Prismarine crafted with ink sacs, and the foundational Prismarine blocks found naturally in ocean monuments.
