How to brew

Add a pufferfish to an Awkward Potion. Redstone increases duration to eight minutes; there is no second level.

How the effect works

The effect prevents the air meter from dropping underwater. It does not improve swimming, mining speed, or visibility by itself.

Best uses

It suits ocean monuments, ruins, shipwrecks, and underwater construction. The extended version is usually more practical.

Upgrades and safety

Combine it with Aqua Affinity, Depth Strider, and Night Vision. Keep an exit or emergency air source for timer expiration.
