This answer depends on what species of squid you mean. Giant squid for example, eat pretty much anything from small fish to large sea animals. They are so big their tentacles can wrap around their prey pulling them into their mouth. Smaller squid eat small fish and shrimp. An interesting point: giant squid have been known to hold their own in a fight with a whale. The squid wraps its long arms around the whale and squeezes. Although the whale will be victorious almost all of the time (if it is big enough), many whales are left battle scarred by the giant squids tentacles.

Scientists believe that the male squid literally injects his sperm into the female's skin during mating.
"The two of them mount beak to beak, so you've got arms and tentacles flying everywhere," Dr O'Shea said.
"The male is co-ordinating this enormous penis, and he's implanting spermadaphores into the female's arms.
