You sure it isnt a cuddle fish? Thats where they get cuddle bones for birds from. Also they would kill anything in a tank you put them with..

It may be a cuddle fish, john told me it was a squid. They are quite similar though.

I liked the sound of a "cuddle" fish better.....was making me think or imagine a fish that "cuddles" with another!

Hate to say it but without a dedicated tank and perhaps a chiller, all its going to cuddle is grim death. Super cool animals though, the wholesalers tend to get them and chambered nautleses in this time of year. I have known a couple people that have tried to breed them with limited but some success. Main drag is temp though- they have a short lifespan in nature and higher than normal temp accelerates it.
