My baby cuttlefish (sepia bandensis) are quickly growing up. They are no longer babies and well on their way to adulthood.

Took these pics today. In another month they will likely be moved to my 90 gallon softy tank.

Sitting right at the surface, resting on the macro. When I saw him up here I decided to bust out the camera.

Great photos. They must be pretty fun to watch at lunchtime (or any other time for that matter). :biggrin:

Excellent! They are so amazing, one of my favorite critters hands down! I cannot wait to see them in your 90 gallon.

Thanks so much for sharing.
