My new cuttlefish babies!

I wouldnt think the seahorses would fare very well! Maybe as a good treat!

 

This is soooo cool!!!

I can't wait to see how things unfold!

 

Good news! I attempted to feed them again tonight and they are all doing very well.

I first put some baby brine shrimp that just hatched in the breeder with them. This caused all of them to become very active and swim around fast waving their tentacles. I could not tell if they were eating or not as the shrimp was so very small.

A little bit later I tried to put a few adult live brine in there. Again they all swam around on a mission. I saw two of them actually eat the shrimp!

They are still not ready yet, plus, well.....they are not the brightest animals! They keep trying to eat the netting on the breeder net that I have them in. I had to place some brine right on the netting and push the net in a bit! But this is a good first step!

 

Interesting.

I wish you all the luck with the cuttlefish. The only experience I know of anyone that has even thought of having a cuttlefish tank had decided not to attempt it after he learned more about them.

 

I missed this thread. Good stuff. Bob would be proud!! Keep the pictures coming, please!
