Spawner not spawning

Mob Spawn is enabled.
I have a squid spawner, but it will not spawn. I have tried without water, I have tried moving it in the floor, up 1 block, 2 blocks, 3, 4 , 5 & 6 but it still wont. Any Ideas?

 

Maybe the right biome?

 

Ill give that a try

EDIT: its at level 150 :/

 

I think it must be fully under water! If that doesn't work I would recommend going to Lee or a mod!

 

I will, I saw a forum that said it needs to be around sea level or 46, but that didn't work. It worked without water on classic so idk why it wont on here. Leeeroieee any ideas?

 

I suggest trying something first before you contact Lee. I'm sure he gets tons of tags every day.

 

I'd say just use spawn eggs! BEWARE they might despawn!

 

Its a public grinder so I cannot.

 

Oh right! Hm? I'm out of ideas at the moment! Someone did ask me the question before but I can't get my head around it!

 

It should work if its below 40. I'll try it out later.

 

Ok

Ok, mine is between 40 and 64, however it isn't in water. I didn't put it in water because its inconvenient for the type of grinder I want to make. I am trying to re-create Mingo_x's squid grinder that was built on classic. It doesn't use water which is why I am confused

 

Hmm, well I have tried everything but they still will not spawn so I will ask lee

 

dont you need grass?

 

No.

You dont need water in order for squids to spawn. You can place it somewhere in the void (I believe the players up told you where in y axis but try moving it in x and z axis and it might work) as it requires trial and error just like the slime spawner.

TimmmyBoi Everyone already said this but here are the requirements for what you gotta do
1. y 40-62
2. No need to fully submerge. You can safely leave it above the water.

 

I have tried all of these already. I am talking to lee about it
