Minecraft glow squid: where to find it and its ink
The glow squid is the squid variant that lives in the dark. In Java it spawns in schools of 4 to 6 in water at light level 0 below Y level 30, in underground lakes, ravines and ocean floors, in any biome except sulfur caves and the deep dark. Unlike other aquatic mobs, it does not need water above or below to spawn.
Its teal texture looks like it glows, but it does not light up anything around it. Hurt it and it stops glowing for 5 seconds. Otherwise it behaves just like the regular squid: it drifts aimlessly, opening and closing its tentacles, ignores you and sometimes gets stranded on the shore.
Out of water it suffocates in 15 seconds and stays still meanwhile. It cannot drown, takes fall damage and can burn, and cannot swim in lava. Guardians, elder guardians and axolotls attack it, just as they attack squid.
What makes it interesting is that it is the only source of glow ink sacs. With one you can make the text on a sign glow in the dark, and it is the ingredient for the glow item frame. On death it gives 1 to 3 experience, and 5% of the ones that spawn are babies.
