Small octopus for sale about the size of a toonie. Got it a few weeks ago but decided to go a different direction with the tank. Asking $50 obo. Or would be willing to trade for a larger cowfish or corals, let me know what you got even if its not either of those you may spike my interest.

frozen squid cubes
and pretty soon probably anything else that has legs, shell, tails, or gills. Wish I had a tank just for this guy - would be cool to have and watch grow up.

Ya that is why I have it in a tank dedicated to just him, he is pretty cool but I think I want to do a few seahorses instead to get some more movement in the tank during the day, this guy is more of a night owl.

pascal, this guy would need his own tank, and they are escape artists so the lid needs to have no holes in it at all.

sale fell through-up for grabs again
the largest I've ever seen any of these guys in capativity is the body being about the size of a golf ball

If it doesn't get back in to the tank after a while it will die but these guys can last out of water for quite a while.

Please be very careful in your decisions regarding octopi, they are not sturdy creatures, and many things we take for granted in home aquaria can kill them quickly. Do your research and they are extremely rewarding pets. Email me if you want to be pointed in the right direction to their care.
