Of all the cuttlefish species in the Persian Gulf, it is the most commonly caught. When hunting at night, it swims up to shallower parts of the sea to feast on a variety of smaller fish, crabs, and occasionally other cuttlefish. Cuttlefish have three hearts! Two hearts are used to pump blood to the cuttlefish's large gills, and the third heart is used to circulate oxygenated blood to the rest of the body.

Coral reefs are the one of earths most complex ecosystems, containing over 800 species of corals and one million animal and plant species. Here we see a shallow coral reef consisting mainly of hard corals, with a juvenile Pharoah Cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) swimming. Cuttlefish (Cephalopod) are able to change colour to blend in with their surroundings by way of camouflage, as seen here. This is a primal instinctive animal behaviour, that helps to ensure their survival. The location is the Andaman Sea, Krabi, Thailand.
