Any idea on the cuttlefish?

Great shots, those babies are absolutely adorable and I really wish I could own the place, but it would be real hard work though

Thanks alot for sharing alien4fish ( name? pretty odd when you call people by usernames.)

joel_ , the cuttle fish will be coming i think he said this spring or summer, and my name is Kevin, and YES i brought one home (an octo), i was assured by Jim that the octo would be fine and if i had a problem i could take the lil guy back, but after much discussion, he said there should'nt be a problem i use NSW, im using all cured live rock,and i have my fluaval that i took off my reef tank that TONS OF BACTERIA in it, and he looks pretty good this morning, and if all else failed i could put him in my reef tank ( in the hospital hold pen)but he looks just fine in his new home

Cool. 8)

Hope it goes ok!

 

[alien4fish]

Congrats, got a name for him yet?

 

[joel_ang]

Congrats on the new pet Kevin! Is he feeding yet?

 

[alien4fish]

uuum, i dont think my son has named him yet, and yes JOEL_ he is eating i put a small hermit in at first and he ignored it, so i went down to the lfs an picked up some minnows and and gold fish, as soon as the gold fish got down to his den ............................wham! so i hope that kick starts, the relationship we are gonna try and keep the same feeeding schedule as what i run on my reef sys., the only diff. is i feed my reef everyother day and if im not mistaken the octo has to feed everyday right?

 

[joel_ang]

Try not to feed the octo goldfish as they might haave been previously treated with copper-based medicine and you know what could happen

Joel is right, also the fat in a goldfish is not ideal

 

[alien4fish]
