FoTony, welcome to Project Noah and congratulations for having this amazing spotting selected as "Spotting of the Day"

"Considered by many to be the "kings of camouflage" even though they can't see in color, cuttlefish aren't actually fish at all. They're mollusks with one of the largest brain-to-body size ratios of all invertebrates!"
