MFR Auto-Spawning not spawning Squid...

[FTB_Time]

I presume this is because it isn't underwater, but even when I cover the room in water, they still don't spawn :/ !

Dunno if this is relative to the MFR spawner, but the spawning conditions for squid are:

1 or more blocks of water, any light level, spawning block must be between level 46 and 62, inclusive

Squids can actually spawn in lots of different liquids. Milk, f'rinstance

If you're just wanting ink, then just catch squid with a jailer's safari net. Set up a water tank with an MFR rancher and drop the jailed squid in the tank. You'll get lots of ink quickly.

Whats your room setup?

It does require water or maybe any liquid, but I only used water.
My setup was spawner flush with the floor and then a single water source block over the spawner. I have had it both directly on top of the spawner or the source block controlled by a piston in the ceiling flowing down when I needed it.
