Minecraft help: slime spawning in the nether

Hello


So in order to do something with the 20 survival spawners I bought, I am looking forward to make a slime farm in the nether using slime spawners.


However, are there slime chunks in the nether? What are the requirements for slime spawning in the nether? Does it need to be at a certain altitude? Can slimes spawn if the spawner is a few blocks over water and not on the ground?


Thanks.

 

I do not believe there are slime chunks in the nether. But magma cubes are very similar so I suggest going for them if you are trying to farm in the nether.

 

magma balls sells for less than slime balls

 

Then I suggest going for something like wither skeletons or blazes. Or you could just settle with magma cream (If you get enough of it)
