Sepia Cuttlefish are generally found in coastal waters and seagrass beds around southern Australia, particularly in the waters off the coast of South Australia. They prefer shallow waters with rocky or sandy substrates. They are highly intelligent and exhibit complex behaviors. They are known for their remarkable ability to change color, pattern, and even the texture of their skin to match their surroundings or communicate with other individuals. They use this ability for camouflage, mating displays, and hunting prey. Cuttlefish are carnivorous, meaty foods should be provided. It's essential to avoid using copper-based treatments in a tank with invertebrates, as it can harm them. Always follow the recommended guidelines for medication use in marine aquariums.
