The flamboyant cuttlefish inhabits tropical waters off northern Australia. Females are much larger than males, and the species is known for its peculiar way of mating: face-to-face, the female allows the male to insert a tentacle holding a sperm packet into her mantle. After fertilising her eggs with the sperm, she lays them one by one in hidden spots, then leaves and dies a little while later. Her tiny offspring, when they hatch, must fend for themselves.

Here the male is depositing his spermatophore to the female, who gladly accepts. This happens multiple times as long as they are not disturbed. Soon the female will lay her egg
