here are some more cuttlefish. that last one was cute!:P
but in my opinion, I don't really think that creature looks like a cuttlefish. But you know i'm no zoologist.

Here's another pic of a cuttle fish which looks very similar to Rubys pic. It seems some cuttle fish are a longer leaner mass.

Compare it to the sludge creature.

yeah, plus it might just be a juvenile that got caught in an oil leak or something

If it weren't for the claws, I'd say it was a squid.

^ the claws might be it's appendages that just look like claws

It looks like a lizard that crawled inside of a ceramic bunny rabbit. Just a wild guess! Pretty neat!

Ah! The infamous sludge monster picture!
We just got though discussing that. WHat was the verdict again? Some said Cuttle Fish, which it definately resembles, but i dunno it's got something odd about it, almost a gel-like appearance but that could be an effect of the mud on it.

I was the one that had the topic.It is defenitly a weird creature.Thought to be either a cuttlefish,squid,or some type of unknown deep sea creature.It is not a barracuda.I will get a much bigger pic of it,and show you guys my topic later today,as i am on a school comp right now

And a few other creatures that also somewhat look like it...

Ahaha the infamous Sludge Moster, so we meet again. Yeah so we made a verdict of it being some kind of like out of shell hermit crab/ squid/ some utant slug or somehing, cuttle fish, and many others. Its possibly a fake, claw could have been attached in photoshop, but it hasn't been proven to be fake or real yet.

Cuttle fish..then again, it could be and out of shell hermit crab that got killed in the sludge...they switch shells when they grow too big and they look somthing like that..
