Yeah for sure, I don't have a frag tank setup anymore so anything I cut I just end up throwing out, come by and I'll set you up.

Fed the octopus a silverside last night, so he's eating now

I guess you're suppose to keep these guys occupied with toys of some sort, anyone got any ideas on what to use?

Very cool man! I would love you see a video of feeding time. I've heard they can open jars so maybe you can put food in a jar and watch him open it
