octopus

Hello! It's me again, been a long time since posted here. The old tank I had unfortunately got dismantled since I had to move to an apartment and my parents didn't allow a large aquarium there (dw everyone inside was relocated). Fortunately, after a couple years here I was finally able to set up...

Hello everyone Thanks for letting me join here. I'm Jack. I have a small 10-gallon tank in Seoul, Korea, and it is 8 months old From now on, I will learn a lot of information from this site. Nice to meet you.

Wasn't going to post this for fear of things going badly, but decided to post anyway because it could help someone else have success in the future. I acquired 2 Pacific brown octopus 1 month ago on Sept 8th 2023. Same day shipping. One died the next day, the other survived ("Nugward"). I...

The Starry Night Octopus (Callistoctopus luteus) got its name from all their bright white spots because it resembles a night’s sky. They are extremely strong and master escape artists, so be sure to secure all of your rockwork and have a tight fitted lid. In house, we are feeding this octopus...

Reef Octopus Regal 200 INT skimmer with Neck Cleaner - Like new - too big for my sump space. Purchased from BRS. Used for about 3 months everything works like new

Hey guys I just found an octopus in my tank, I'm guessing he came with the rock that I got from Florida if anyone knows about octopus and octopus ID I'd appreciate it if you could ID this little guy! Thanks.

Just love and wanted to share this video I got of my red pacific octopus, Moriarty! He’s just coming over to say hello and pull my hand back to his rock for better leverage to get it to his den…. He may be missing something about my overall size…. (Sound off unless you want to hear my overflow...

This mirror is 6”x6” and sits in a shadow box with LED lights that come with a remote to change colors. I made this myself and can do other designs upon request. Unfortunately my camera doesn’t get the clearest shots with the lights on so it looks blurry in pictures with the lights on but not...

Hi all! My fish store ordered me an Octopus, I was looking for a Pygmy, instead they brought in a wonderpus octopus. Does anyone have experience with them? How are they compared to other octopus ? Are they active at all ?

Hey everybody! I’m getting an octopus most likely Pygmy Atlantic octopus. I have figured out want I am doing for mechanical now I just need to figure out substrate and aquascape. I was thinking a more coarse substrate. Maybe Fiji pink rock for the sand. And I’m not quite sure what to do...

I am looking into starting a tank for a pygmy octopus. Do any of you have experience keeping a pygmy octopus or even a larger sized one? If so, let me know. I would like to read your tank journal. I have a few questions off the bat. Please feel free to respond whether or not you have kept...

I just got a 90gal tank I plan to do up as I get the money. Plan is to run a mixed reef octopus tank. I’ll be running an Eheim type 2217 filter and two more HOB aqueon 75 filters. I got 2 mover m900 heads but maybe changing that. I still need to figure out lighting solution that’s relatively...

Well, this was interesting. They basically gave an octopus MDMA and then let it decide if it would rather play with a Chewbacca doll or another octopus. The point was to study if octopuses have a system for switching social behavior on or off. A Conserved Role for Serotonergic...

So I came across this the other day... Neat looking little fellow. Got me to thinking about a tank for one. Maybe a 20 long set up like a peninsula. Epoxy a sturdy rock structure together and maybe some clear glass bottles/jars. Set it up in living room or dining room so he can watch everything...

Hi, I'm looking into buying a new skimmer and I'm just looking for some advise and reviews to help make a decision. I currently have a 100lt system with sump, it's a TMC Signature 450 but I'm looking at upgrading tank to a Red Sea Reefer 525xl in the next year or so and want to cover all bases...

Looking to try a new tank probability species specific. I want to try somthing new and diffrent looking at pisol shrimps, mantis shrimps, or a dwaf octopus. I have done decent reseach on all. More looking for why keep one over the other or other odd and cool no fish animals.

I am looking for a source for octopuses. My only qualifications are that it is a species that doesn't get too large for a 60 gallon (no vulgaris, bimac, etc -at the same time I would prefer it to not be the tiniest species that are available), it's not coldwater (no red octo, bimac, etc), and...
