It water cube with opened fence gates below it, so squids can fall through It is located in Y:56 to Y:49 It is built in a desert (hardly any water is around it) It is covered only by a layer of stained glass Here is a screenshot of it:

Squid do not spawn in desert biomes. Although the wiki suggest building a squid farm in a desert biome, it also states that the rabbits are the only passive mob to spawn here (clearly a mistake on the page about squids).

I can only guess the suggestion to build in a desert biome is to get across the idea that you want to build where there is little natural water.

  • A river in/adjacent to a desert biome would be an excellent place to build a farm. It would however mean that you would be back to the problem of having to clear out a part of a river.
