What is the most common hostile mob in Frozen Ocean?

Are Frozen Ocean spawns different in Java and Bedrock?

How do spawn weights work in Minecraft?

Each spawn attempt first picks a category (for example hostile or passive mobs), then one mob of that category at random, weighted by its spawn weight. A mob's chance is its weight divided by the total weight of its category in the biome — so the shares in each table add up to 100%.
