I'm trying to find slimes for the first time. I've been using the tool to help find them on my seed.
Anyway, I want to know the following:
1. You only need a 5x5x5 area for them to spawn?
2. Is glowstone necessary?
3. Can they spawn on peaceful?
4. How long until they first spawn if done correctly?
5. I need to be below level 16 for them to spawn, right?
(I used the search button like everyone always asks, but I couldn't find concrete answers)
1:No you dont, at most 3x3x3
2:Its not necessary
3:No, however if they have spawned on a difficulty easy or greater and you switch to peaceful they wont despawn
4:minimum 10 mins
5:Correct.
Check out my thread if you havent already just click my sig.
The most problem people have with them not spawning are
#nearby caves (where other hostile mobs spawn) slimes are rare spawns so other hostile mobs will spawn before a slime spawns.
#Distance, you have to be atleast 24 blocks away for mobs to spawn

1. You only need a 3x3x3 area for large slimes to spawn. That being said, I would advise making it at least 5x5x5 to give the additional spawning space (much larger if you really want it to be successful).
2. Glowstone is not necessary. You can use it as a light source, however torches will also work.
3. They cannot spawn on peaceful, however if they do spawn and you save and change your difficult to peaceful, they will not automatically despawn.
4. The time it can take will vary, however I have usually seen them within the first 10 minutes or so.
5. Correct.
Hope that helps!
Edit: Fayzed, you beat me to it by like 5 seconds!

To find slimes, all you must do:
Generate new world in Superflat mode. Flee in terror from the millions of slimes that hop around >_>
