EMeyer Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I still have one of these dwarf cuttlefish for trade or sale. Theyre big now and eating shrimp so I value this at $50. I'd be open to trading for various reef related items a low end skimmer multiple coral frags multiple cleaner shrimp open to discussing other trades, if you have something to trade and want a cuttlefish, get in touch. Seriously the coolest animal I've ever kept in an aquarium, but with 4 currently theyre eating me out of house and home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jorge Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 I bet "cuttlefish and corals" would be happy to take them!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorW Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Wow those are neat, do you keep them in their own tank? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J120AZ using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMeyer Posted June 3, 2017 Author Share Posted June 3, 2017 Yeah, I have a dedicated system for them. Macro algae, soft corals, and a few inverts theyll tolerate. Theyre eating live feeder minnows and shrimp, and occasionally frozen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do you just throw freshwater minnows in the tank and hope they get eaten quickly? Colby has a bunch of molly-type fish in with his seahorses in the 600 gallon system. I wonder if they would be easy to breed to use as feeders for the cuttlefish. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMeyer Posted June 3, 2017 Author Share Posted June 3, 2017 Freshwater minnows, fed one at a time to maximize attention per minnow. They dont live long in saltwater so I want to make sure they get eaten first. I agree, I've been thinking about acclimating some mollies and breeding those for food. Wonder how well they reproduce in full strength seawater... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The world of wet pets sells mollies that are already fully acclimated to saltwater and they're only like $3, they breed like crazy so I'm sure you wouldn't have any problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
