Oh, nice one. He looks like one of those especially gorgeous fractal art patterns you run across from time to time.

@j: I think you can just see two tentacles stuck together near the top. They separate and go in opposite directions at the top of the cage.

Looks like the dawning of the 'Age of Aquarium.' But seriously, I'm waiting for some science with the cephs. (The general embryology & paleontology have always been good reading!)
