Tutorial:Froglight farming
Froglight farming is a way to get mass amounts of froglights, obtained when a frog eats a tiny magma cube.
Concept[edit | edit source]
A froglight farm is essentially a modified magma cube farm. The spawning system is the same, but the killing system is different. This being said, there are two ways magma cubes can spawn. They can spawn naturally in Nether fortresses and basalt deltas, as well as uncommonly in Nether wastes. However, they can also be spawned by magma cube monster spawners found in some bastion remnants.
Farm designs[edit | edit source]
Bastion Remnants[edit | edit source]
The area below and around the monster spawner at the bottom of treasure type bastion remnants can be enclosed, drained of its lava, and turned into a froglight farm. This can be done using a layer of single candles with powder snow above them. This lets tiny magma cubes fall down to the frogs while keeping medium and large magma cubes at the top to be killed by the powder snow. Powder snow is used because magma cubes and other fire-related mobs take 5HP
every two seconds instead of 1HP.
There are three colors of froglight that drop depending on what type of frog kills the magma cube:
| Frog type | Froglight color |
|---|---|
 Warm
|
 Pearlescent
|
 Temperate
|
 Ochre
|
 Cold
|
 Verdant
|
To collect all of the froglight variants, all temperatures of frogs should be present at the bottom of the farm. No matter what frogs are used, the bottom floor should be made of hoppers or should have a minecart with hopper beneath it to collect the dropped froglights.
Natural Spawning[edit | edit source]
Below is another way to farm froglights. Like the above design, it allows tiny magma cubes to fall through while killing off the larger magma cubes. Here, this is accomplished through a floor of vertical chains surrounding an iron golem.
