any cuttlefish fanatics here wish to share their experinences? very interested in keeping them! any info site on hw to keep them? Thanks!

hee....b prepare to have "black water"......

They are very interesting creatures....remembered the time when i 'talked' to them for 1 hour plus at underwater world...

Anyway..they need very good reliable filtration...and they need to be kept in a species tank...any fish and shrimp or crabs would most likely be eaten.

my friend had them in a small 2 footer. one day that fella(cuttlefish) expelled all that black ink and dropped dead. water became black and smelly

Can keep Cuttlefish in our reeftank?

Can..provided there is nothing that will eat/attack it...

And that there are no fishes and shrimps and crabs.
