They are Sepia bandensis(dwarf cuttles).I would also suggest Tonmo.org for those interested in the captive care of these beasties.
They require small live foods for their first few meals and they are very sensitive to metals in the water so RO/DI water is a must.

Wow, I have always wanted to try these but right now its just not feasible for me. Maybe in the near future. Such fascinating creatures, but definitely require a specialized setup.

Damn, I'd love to try them!

One of the eggs I got hatched one hour after pick-up
 
I had just put the eggs in the net breeder in the bio-cube and one of the three hatched revealing twins after one hour. They sure are cute little guys. Thanx Teejay
