Very cool, thanks Mike.

I sold a 150 gallon aquarium last year and they guy who was buying it was going to use it for raising food for his cuttlefish. Seems like a lot of work for fish that only live a few months, but they are amazing to watch.

Actually cuttle fish are a Caphalopod, related to squid and octopus. These are all mollusks.

See this article (offsite) - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuttlefish

This is the sort of animal where if you want them, you will need to breed them, since they don't live that long. We see this with some other animals in the aquarium world, such as the killifish species.
