Add New Hostile Ocean Mob: Coral Eels

under review

You should add a colorful, vicious mob that spawns in coral reef biomes.  The eel could come in different colors that blend in with the coral blocks.  Will attack players and fish.  Drops raw eel upon death, and when cooked, it grants the player sharp underwater vision and hunger saturation.

The ocean really needs more hostile mobs than just Drowned and the monument-exclusive Guardians.  This mob could be a native danger that could be found in an curiosity-driving ocean biome.

    Cool!  Maybe they could have burrows/dens, you could raid it for caviar.

    I love the idea of eels in minecraft, they would be a rarely nice, unique ocean mob (unlike the drowned which i do like but are just zombie variants), i especially like the idea of deep sea eels and changed/ electric eels that could be rarer but much more dangerous.

    - these are some screenshots from a datapack i'm working on

    Maybe they can have different variations for different biomes, green-ish for kelp forests and bright and colourful for coral

    Also, Two different Moray Eels! They'd have the holes on their necks to prevent waves in the water,(when lunging at prey) one type would have more of a beak (To eat algae and such), and the other a jaw with sharp teeth, as well as the inner jaw that pulls the prey down their troat. I think they should be like wolves where they're neutral until provoked! Along with Grouper fish for them to hunt with.
