I know they pretty much only eat live food, need species only tanks, and have about 6 months to a year for a lifespan.

I just hatched my first dwarf cuttlefish. I've been doing massive amounts of research and even talked with some staff at Monterey Bay Aquarium about how they are cultivating their cuttlefish. What did you want to know?

I had one for about 6 months. I fed him baby crawfish that I caught and purged. Not that difficult. Don't see them much though

Tried feeding them ghost shrimp yesterday, the shrimp are bigger than the cuttlefish but they didn't hesitate to attack them. They only ate about half of the shrimp body. I'll try to take a video this evening. I'm going to let them out of the breeder box next week, just need to make sure they can't get past the refugium chamber.
