minecraft:behavior.move_to_water is an entity component: it goes in the components object of a custom mob, or in one of its component groups. Makes a mob that is on land look for water and go back into it. Fish, dolphins and axolotls use it so they do not dry out.

search_height | integer | 1 | How far up and down the mob looks for water. |
goal_radius | number | 0.5 | How close the mob must get before it counts as arrived. A little room stops it from jittering around one spot. |
search_count | integer | 10 | How many random blocks it checks each tick. Set it to 0 to check every block in range at once (slower for the game).Range: 0 to … |
