The Ink Tank is shown next to Inkling's [[damage meter]], in a color matching her current [[Ink (disambiguation)|ink]] color (which is in turn determined by her costume). It holds 150 units of ammunition, which are consumed in varying amounts by various attacks. In particular, the line on the Ink Tank shows how much ink will be expended by throwing a [[Splat Bomb]]. If Inkling does not have enough ink for a move, it will deal less damage and knockback, and certain moves will have no effect at all. | The Ink Tank is shown next to Inkling's [[damage meter]], in a color matching her current [[Ink (disambiguation)|ink]] color (which is in turn determined by her costume).
