I am working on an ocean planet, and I am wondering what conditions would be expected of a planet whose surface is entirely water.

Or more accurately, how accurate is my exact idea.

My current idea is it is around 1.7 to 2.4x the size of Earth (haven't decided). It has extreme storms, and tideslarge waves across the planet due to three relatively close moons. Though if you go deep enough into the water it become calm and underwater settlements can be made. Storms come from the relatively hot temperature of the planet due to proximity to its parent star.

When you go deep enough, it became just a massive sheet of ice due to the pressure.

Is this realistic for a ocean planet? Is my explanation for the heavy storms and tides realistic?
