A sea lantern is an underwater light source that appears in ocean monuments and ocean ruins. It has a animated pulsing texture.
No tool can accelerate the breaking process of sea lantern.

Sea lantern drops 2~3 prismarine crystals when it's destroyed using a tool without Silk Touch. In Java Edition, the Fortune enchantment makes the sea lantern drop extra 0~level prismarine crystals at the equal chances, but it is capped at 5. In Bedrock Edition, the number of drops is not affected by Fortune.[1]
Sea lantern drops itself when it's destroyed using a tool with Silk Touch.
Sea lanterns generate throughout ocean monuments, as well as in some ocean ruins.
Sea lanterns emit a light level of 15, the brightest possible light level in the game.
Sea lanterns can be used to activate a conduit by building a structure around it. By doing this, the conduit emits the Conduit Power effect in a certain radius, depending on how many blocks are used to power it. Prismarine, dark prismarine, and prismarine bricks can also be used for this purpose.
The Sea lantern blocks all sunlight, players and mobs suffocate inside it, and it blocks a beacon's beam, preventing the beacon's activation. However, like transparent blocks, it does not prevent the opening of chests, monsters (including slimes) cannot spawn on it,β[Java Edition only] and it does not transfer a redstone signal. This behavior also occurs in glowstone.
