Turtles and Bees Galore

1.13 - The Update Aquatic

1.15 - The Buzzy Bees Update

• 1.13 marked the first of what many players suspected to be a "fishy update".

Oceans - countless mobs, blocks, structures, and items were added to breathe new life into the once-dull biomes. Elsewhere beneath the waves, you'll find the likes of coral reefs, kelp, underwater ravines and caves, sea grass, shipwrecks, treasure chests, ruins, and more. Additionally, there are nine distinct new ocean biomes: frozen, deep frozen, cold, deep cold, lukewarm, deep lukewarm, normal, deep normal, and warm. Icebergs and blue ice are now found in chillier climes.

• 1.15 added bees. Need I say more?

Jokes aside, while this update appears small on the surface, in reality, it's anything but that. Bees came with a ton of new mechanics, interacting with farms and being an interesting mob to work with in themselves. Their honey also had a lot of uses, serving as a foodstuff or a decorative honeycomb, and honey blocks were huge for Redstone.
