Joseph ★★★★★

The little suction cups on its tentacles feel surprisingly realistic, and the undulating fins really do wave just like the description says. My daughter spent a good hour pretending it was swimming through our coffee table ocean.

Matthew ★★★★★

My son was fascinated by how the undulating fins move like tiny wings, and it actually taught him something new about marine life. The small size is perfect for little hands to examine up close.

Ellie W. ★★★★★

The undulating fins on this reef squid are so much more detailed than the product photos suggest, and the body has a nice heft without being too stiff. It's a great pick for anyone curious about Caribbean marine life, and I love how the fin movement really captures the species' unique swimming style
