Hello! I'm at my wit's end and feel like I've tried everything. I'm using the most recent Forge with Mo Creatures and nothing else. I built a structure at the bottom of a deep sea biome, and I'm down to bedrock. I've closed off the entire structure with sandstone and glass, but the water inside simply will not leave. I've tried /fill clearing it out with minecraft:air, but water immediately floods back in from the roof. I've converted the roof to concrete and tried just clearing the topmost water level in the structure, but still nope. I've quadruple-checked the structure; there are no open entrances for water. The only trace I see is the little "flowing water" underneath a block (such as if you place a block in midair underwater, you can see there is something underneath). I have demonstrated by building smaller structures within my big one that I can do the "block in yourself and the water vanishes" thing, but it is just not working with my large structure. Are there blocks that water can go through, like wool or slabs? (Clearly it would go through grates.) Thanks!
Does this help? (Let me know if I'm not doing images right or if you need more.) As you can see (even though it's dark), the whole thing is enclosed, oftentimes with two- to three-deep glass panes or sandstone.
I guess the water inside the structure consists of water source blocks. You have to destroy pretty much every source block from each layer. If you fail the water will start to recreate source blocks again just like an infinite water source.
I ended up just turning the entire inside into glass, then hollowing it out. Now it seems to understand that there is air in there, and if I accidentally break glass that leads to the outside, it behaves as expected, creating a little waterfall that I can just plug. What a pain...but at least it works now!

Come check out my pack and tell me what you think.
