Bongo Shrimp Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 I'm getting a pair as well. I'm so stoked! It's been a long time coming! About 3 years ago someone bought a pair out from under me. I'm going for it now!!! Link to comment

yoshii Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 OH MY, MY FAVORTIVE CUTTLEFISH?!?! FOREVER JEALOUS! I also thought they were illegal to keep for private aquarists? They are ok for a 10g? I thought they needed more space.. Link to comment
Bongo Shrimp Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 OH MY, MY FAVORTIVE CUTTLEFISH?!?! FOREVER JEALOUS! I also thought they were illegal to keep for private aquarists? They are ok for a 10g? I thought they needed more space.. Well considering they are so tiny I think they will be fine. Not to mention they sorta walk around unlike other cuttles which swim more. I may take out some LR to give them more space. I hear they like half a coconut shell to hide in. And no I don't think they are illegal. I had the opportunity to get them before but someone bought them out from under me after I told them I was getting them. (That's why I don't tell anyone where I get my stuff anymore!!!!!)

Bongo Shrimp Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 Ok yoshii, here's what I got today: 25g but it has a huge footprint. I will be taking everything out of the 10g and putting it in the new tank. Link to comment

neuwave Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 And it still continues that bongo is one of the few reefers on this site who pushes the boundaries and is up for any reefer challenge. High-5! Awesome! Keep up the good work and def post pics within seconds of the cuttlefish arrival. Link to comment

I think the large footprint will be great for them or any other angler or that type of thing in the future. I hope the cuttles like it as much as we do. Link to comment
Lukusrose Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hey Bongo, I'm really new to this hobby, and haven't even got my first tank set up yet but I have to say I've read through some of your threads and have to say I'm amazed at what you can achieve! Definitely looking forward to seeing what you do with this thread! Hopefully my own attempts won't be too pitiful! Link to comment

I hope the cuttles like it as much as we do. I hope so too. You can really do a lot with those dimensions. I have a 36"x18"x15" and I love the depth of it. Link to comment

Yeah it's a lot more than I've ever had to play with. The biggest thing area wise that I have are the biocubes. And theres not much room there. This is like gigantic to me. I love it. Link to comment
