Usage

For information about the placement mechanics of all stairs, see Stairs § Usage.

Like its parent block, the normal prismarine stairs are uniquely useful for decoration as it has an animated texture. The cracks in prismarine stairs slowly cycle in color through light blue, green, purple, and dark blue. The full animation for the prismarine stair texture changes color 22 times in an irregular sequence before the whole pattern repeats taking 5 minutes and 30 seconds.

Note blocks

Prismarine stairs can be placed under note blocks to produce "bass drum" sounds.
