Anyone Keep Cuttlefish?

Over in the lounge I saw the "Awesome cuttlefish pic..." thread that linked to a "cuttlefarm", and that got me wondering if anyone kept cuttlefish? They are really cool animals!

I think this is going to be my next project. There is very limited knowledge available. Keep in mind that you will get very attached to them but their life-span is no more than 13 months.

Here's a link to an article by the "cuttlefarm" guy:

I'm just starting to think about this so I don't have any answers at this point...

a short synopsis: very short lifes (like stated above), requires a species only tank, a med. to large tank, immaculate water quality, and specific care. they are very cool, but shouldn't be attempted unless you are experienced and punctual in my opinion.

i really wanted one. was asking around and looking for a while to find one, and they are a bit pricey. and i hear you need a fairly large tank.
