Overview
Squid drift aimlessly through open water and jet away in a cloud of ink when hit, which briefly obscures your view. Their ink sacs make black dye and, combined with paper, are the only ingredient for books and bookshelves, so an early squid pond is effectively an enchanting-table prerequisite. They suffocate out of water and are frequently killed by drowning in waterfalls or by drowned.
In Minecraft, Squid is classified as a passive mob. It has 10 health points, or 5 hearts. Expect 3 experience per kill.
