Basically every single body of water i've generated since the update has been a coral reef, even if it was a river, elements of coral reefs were trying to spawn, such as sea pickles. Thought that it might have been a coincidence, but after exploring a decent sized area (Probably around 800x800) I decided it was probably a bug with how water is generating.
I was flying most of the time, so screenshots were hard to get, but I attatched what I got.
(Two of these screenshots are from a video listed in the comments, which also may seem to have the same problem).

I have lost access to this world, so I no longer know if it affects worlds with both 1.17 generation and 1.18 generation. However, I have since created a new world in 1.18, and haven't noticed the issue.

This was also kind of displayed in an IbxToycat video on YouTube (This 1.18 feature can RUIN your world (or save it) )

I should have also mentioned that my world was also an existing world already, but that may have been guessable.
