I Have an Aquatic animal farm located in a Frozen ocean biome. From what i understand about spawning rules Squid should spawn in all ocean biome variants in Bedrock as long as the block of water they spawn in has a clear path to the sky. I have both Cod and Salmon Spawning in the pool but squid do not spawn, i've also gone underneath the ice surrounding the pool in all directions going over 60 blocks clearing out any turtles/dolphins i see since squids share a cap with them.

This is still an issue as of 9/28/2019. I built a 9x9 chunk ink farm in a frozen ocean to remove turtle and dolphin spawns, and wasted almost a week doing so.
As of 1/11/2020, this is still unresolved. Like Andrew, I built a large ink farm in a frozen ocean only to find that there are no squid spawns.
No squids spawning in frozen ocean biome still seems to be an issue. Built an aquatic farm in frozen ocean biome and no squids are spawning in the farm. Full perimeter is set around the farm...there are no squids in the water under the farm. A /kill confirms no squid in the surrounding area and still none spawn in the farm.
Still broken 4/8/20. I knew of the bug, but I build it anyways for the fish and hoping the bug will soon be fixed.
We believe this bug is fixed in the latest beta version, and the fix will be included in a future update when that is ready for full release (no specific date can be given). We will leave this ticket open as a point of reference until the fix has been fully released.
Same here. Everyone said squid can spawn in any ocean biome, so I started a massiv farm around my icy base. I was wondering beforhand, because I never ever saw any squid around my base. So I got a bad feeling and tested 1 of 9 (Frozen Ocean Biomes)-chunks by building 1/9 of the spawning/collection-System. Still a big project, because you have to prevent the spawning of water mobs in an huge area (9 Chunks diameter). After clearing out all the left mobs manually and by changing game modes and prevent turtle spawning on beaches, too, I got a ton of fish spawns and zero squid spawns so far. Perhaps it has something to do with bubble culumns, but I'm pretty sure squids are able to spawn in it, like cod und salmon. So yeah. It's a another bug.
