Who Has Kept Cuttlefish?!?!?
 

has onyone kept cuttlefish succesfully for long periods of time?
maybe even got them breeding.

I believe I read somewhere along the line their life span is only in the 12 months range?? Neat creatures though

yeah that's what i've been told but i want to get some breeding in a 90g so could be kind of neat you know

Hey dude... Try talkin to ure boss. I hear tell that she hatched some sepia eggs. That is, if this is Tom.

This might help.

I have always wanted a Flamboyant Cuttlefish, they are just amazing! Good luck, keep us posted too. I still have my old octopus tank that would make a great home. :-)

Both Chin Lee and Seahorsefinatic had cuttlefish at one time

i have already ordered one from shar at complete i just don't know the condition of which it will be in

one cool cuttlefish
 

i have one that's about 2.5 inch long, i feed this guy mostly on shorecrabs which we have an endless supply. he has managed to stake out his territory in the sump which he shares with couple mantis and a 5 inch reef lobster. i have trained him to the point where if my hand approaches water surface he would be hovering just beneath ready to snatch the crab from me, all the while flashing colours rolling across his body..

You'll probably enjoy reading this if you havent seen it already.

Reeferious, where do you collect your crabs to feed it?? Burrard inlet is very dirty, I'd be scared of introducing chemicals/bacteria into my tank.
