S.Latimanus

[joel_ang]

Does any one know the maximum mantle length and lifespan of a s.latimanus?

 

[Nancy]

Cephalopods: A World Guide gives this as the size:

Body (and shell) to 50 cm.

So it's a big one!

Don't have anything on the lifespan.

Don't worry...ANY spelling errors are forgiven...we all do them. I am somewhat curious about keeping squids also...loligo should be able to be kept in a large tank...has anyone done that???

p.s. please forgive any (sic)s I may make too!

 

[Colin]

was that too picky????? LOL

apologies, my spelling is pretty crap normally, but just in case you were doing web searches and getting nothing cuz the speeling wiz rong.

also, added squid info under other thread

I would just like to know if it was ok to feed fish(mollies) to Zoidberg daily as they are more hardy.

 

[Colin]

Cuttles will naturally have more fish in their diet than an octopus would and I used a fair amount of fish for my cuttles but make sure you still have a varied diet and maybe take days about between fish and crustaceans

 

[joel_ang]

Maybe I'll feed zoidberg crabs or crayfish. Zoidberg seems to flash colours before he inks( I managed too get a vid of it, I already sent it), is this some kind of warning sign?
