If you can ship I'd be interested in a couple in the future.

What's their lifespan 1 year?

the short lifespan is the only downside to cuttles.

Would 1 be happy in a 27g long species-only tank? I've always been fascinated by cuttlefish, I'd consider buying one in the future.

I do plan on selling them soon. Its hard to feed this many little mouths. They would be happy in a 27 Gallon Long. THat would be great.
They do only live one year. It is a downside, but imagine the fun you will have in that year.

Will they eventually eat frozen/thawed food? Or is Live an absolute must? (I'm thinking of my location)

The link below is from reefkeeping.com

In short they require expert care, cooler temperatures, higher salinity heavy duty skimmers and larger tanks without fish and most inverts except urchins and starfish.

If well kept, they live for only a year.
