sweet! that's awesome! I love watching cuttles feed

 

[shortlegjj]

thanks! I love feeding him

I work on the L.I. Sound so luckily I have an endless supply of shrimp and crabs to feed him.

Shortleg,

What's the best way to go about catching shrimp and crabs around here? I haven't had any luck at the beaches/rocky tidepools so I've just been having food shipped.

Thanks,

Dan

DH: In the summer time, just run a net along the bottom side of a dock and you'll have a bunch of glass shrimp.
For crabs, you need something on the bottom for a couple days with any food like a hot dog

I'll post a picture of my trap for you tomorrow

That's really cool - what size tank is that cuttlefish in?

 

[Opcn]

If only I lived by the sea, so I could get food cheaply, although I suppose I could get some creyfish easily enough...hmmm

How many tanks are in that video and where is the tank situated in relation to the others? It looked like one was on top or inside another or something weird.

tops, for now while he's still tiny, he's in a 10. I'm thinking of a 29 high for him later on

freed, some of the footage was at my lfs where I got him.
