A cool anglerfish

I was thinking Minecraft should have an anglerfish that only spawns in deep oceans. They could have a lure that glowed and when you killed them they could have a chance of dropping that lure which could be used to make new blocks that are similar to glowstone. The anglerfish would also be hostile doing 1 heart of damage when they attacked you. The anglerfish would only be in groups of 1-2 and would have health equal to that of 3 hearts.

I really like idea and would hope it gets added to Minecraft eventually

    Personally I disagree with Anglerfish being hostile to players, they're quite small fish and they only hunt other fish, there are no attacks from the fish on record either.
    That being said though I would love to see this mob added into the game, however, I'd like it as a passive entity, hunting small fish every now and again, perhaps it could function as a moving light source in the deep seas, helping players see where they otherwise could not?
