Hopefully future cuttlefish owners will read this thread and realize how important it is to have mysids on hand when ordering cuttlefish eggs. They won't eat for the first day or two, but it is good to have the mysids available. You probably should order your next batch unless you have a way to keep the mysids from becoming cannibalistic... I think I only got about a week out of a mysid order. The first few weeks are always expensive...
