cuttlefish

[smalljerm]

hey all, recently i just found out that one of my friend owns a kelong( is like a fishing place in singapore for fishing for commercial food) anyway, he found out about my obsession with cuttlefishes and told me that every other night, he will have cuttlefish swimming into his fish nets, and he told me he could get some for me, so i told him okay, he just passed me one today, but it doesnt really look like sepia bandensis, i`m thinking it could be a officinalis but the thing is its from singapore waters, i would love to post up pics right now but i dont have my camera with me, so could anyone let me know what kind of cuttlefish are found in singapore waters? thanks alot!

what size tank is it in.....

Its currently in a 28 gallon cube, have yet to relocate it yet, cause i do not know what species this is and its needs, been keeping sepia bandensis for a while now already, but i doubt this is a bandensis though.

That looks way too big to be a bandensis but I love those pictures. Makes me want to get back into keeping them again. Thanks for posting those.

Some cuttlefish can get rather large and would definitely outgrow a 28 gallon tank.
