Prime Time Cuttlefish

Tomorrow's NOVA is all about cuttlefish!

Kings of Camouflage, eh? It brings me back to freshmen zoology. My prof showed this incredible video of how cuttlefish communicate, both through color changes and signaling. That video was largely responsible for my decision to change my major: from English to biology.

I never found out what the video was, though I would love a copy. Anyone have any ideas?

Aliens From Inner Space maybe? A BBC Wildlife Special.

Perhaps it was the episode of the Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau about cuttlefish? This does not seem to be available anywhere on the Web. I remember this episode very well - it was beautiful and riveting. I've been a cuttlefish fan ever since. It might be somewhere in this series.
