[Katana9990]

Duetchland Uber alles?

[DARKWITCHCHERYLE]

[DARKWITCHCHERYLE]

Once the female lays her eggs she dies.

[007bmac]

Yes and the male dies after he fertilizes female

as I understand it. Like octopus.

[Alberad08]

So they dance an allemande :-)

[vampirefastcode]

cuttlefish are probably the weirdest animal on the planet and they're amazing. they can go completely invisible to every predator in the ocean, and use it to get their own prey as well. that strobing technique they use is to hypnotize prey. and it always works

[hardxxcorey]

it's amazing how they move almost entirely by that weird fin that is constantly fluttering.

Gracefull.  these guys look pretty big like maybe 24" plus! Nice striation coloring. Thanks for the cool video!

[acephantom903]

@OCEANPROAQUATICScom I know, I thought they only got to like 6 inches at most. This surpised me.

As the music is the german national anthem, you could use this video as a means to promote child-breeding, which is very poor in Germany.

If you dig cuttlefish, this'll surely inspire you ;)

[facelesshorseman]

My favorite alien lifeform.

Any videos of strobing attack mode!

[lankanvino]

they're bodies act like a hovercraft

[Brettkatze]

it seems as if they're dancind :D

why did you use the German National Anthem?

[indemnis4]

Loved it. Would like to be able to change colours like that.

Very clear video and beautiful subject. I showed it to my 2.5 year old so she could get an idea of what a cuttlefish is. Thank you:)
