• The sepia apama, also known as the giant cuttlefish, is the largest species of cuttlefish in the world.
  It can grow up to 50 cm in mantle length and weigh over 10 kg.
  It has a complex skin system that allows it to change its color and texture to blend in with its surroundings, communicate with other cuttlefish, or display aggression or mating signals.
  It can produce a range of colors, including sepia, by adjusting the size and shape of the pigment cells in its skin.

• The sepia officinalis, also known as the common cuttlefish, is a smaller species of cuttlefish that is widely distributed in the Mediterranean Sea and the eastern Atlantic Ocean.
  It has a similar ability to change its color and texture as the sepia apama, but it also has a unique feature: it can eject a cloud of sepia ink when threatened by predators.
  The ink acts as a decoy, confusing the attacker and allowing the cuttlefish to escape.
  The ink also contains a substance that reduces the sense of smell of the predator, making it harder to track the cuttlefish.

• The sepia bandensis, also known as the dwarf cuttlefish, is the smallest species of cuttlefish, reaching only 8 cm in mantle length.
  It is native to the Indo-Pacific region, where it inhabits coral reefs and seagrass beds.
  It is a popular aquarium pet, as it is easy to care for and has a high level of intelligence and personality.
  It can also change its color and texture, but it prefers to use camouflage rather than ink to avoid predators.
  It can mimic the appearance of rocks, sand, algae, or coral, depending on its environment.
