Food suitable for and attractive to squid, cuttlefish and octupi, shaped and coloured to look like seagoing craft, particulalrly submarines (Choose from "Captain Nemo's Nautilus", "U-571", or "Red October"*) with slight positive or neutral buoyancy.

Drop in your aquarium and video the "giant sea monster" engulfing and consuming the unfortunate mariners.

Some of the longer-lived cephalopods can grow to great size. If you train them on *model* submarines while they're young, who knows what might happen later on?

No, it's the whole "Kraken dragging down ship into the abyss" thing ... there must be tentacles.

What's next, keyboards designed for cuttlefish tentacles?

...Actually, given that cuttlefish are pretty smart, and gorillas have been taught to use sign language, Cuttlefish Blogging may not be too far off. I'll go post that now.

Don't forget the 'Seaview' and its little flying sub.
