Sobela Ocean Aquarium’s dwarf cuttlefish are truly captivating. This incredible species, which is a cousin to the octopus and squid, can camouflage and change its coloration.

The Cuttlefish. Where do we even start when talking about how cool cuttlefish are? Aside from being able to change colour, having 3 hearts, and blue-green blood, even their eyes and pupils are unique.
