They appear as green semi-transparent cubes. Slimes come in four official sizes: huge, big, normal, and small. While slimes that are normal or larger will make a wet slapping noise, small slimes will make the same noise made when the player walks on stone. They are the first hostile mob that can spawn in both light and dark areas. These creatures are only naturally found deep underground in the bottom 16 layers of the map. They usually spawn in large, cavernous spaces or in open mines. This is partially caused by the fact that a large space is needed for them to spawn.
