Squid

Hello I live in Maine. In Maine we have long-finned squid that grow up to 17 inches in length, and boreal or short-finned squid that are up to 9 inches in length.

Has anyone tried to keep one as a pet?

Aside from being very tricky to catch and transport successfully, they need circular tanks. They tend to bash themselves against corners and sides of the typical rectangular tank.
