Deep Below
by UnOriginal_1
Deep Below generates new ocean structures for Forge 1.12.2 worlds, where players can explore sunken sites and search for hidden treasure.
What it does
Deep Below adds new structure oceans to the world generator. The sites hold hazards that players must get past before they reach the chests inside, and some of them are guarded by a guardian that is tied to an older, forgotten civilization. The author describes the danger as real, so players should expect a challenge rather than a safe exploration.
The mod adds a fish, the lunkertooth, that can be caught and used as bait or food, along with a lunkertooth egg. An egg placed in a single chest turns that chest into a surprise that contains a lunkertooth. Hidden chests belonging to the beasts add loot to the underwater areas. Deep Below is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. The server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.12.2, with 1.2 as the latest file from 2024-05-02.

What the author says
Find the strange ruins in the ocean, it contains some nice loot but beware, some adventurers that have gone in search of riches have never come back. I wonder why? (I recommend using fluidlogged API or some similar mods to have the best experience).
