Okay, this is the story. We have had our tank just under two weeks now. It has live rock from Naha as well as live rock that we collected one day snorkeling. We stare at the tank all time and find all kinds of new things.
We managed to get two of the crabs out but noticed a couple more really smalls ones left. The other day after we turned out the lights we noticed something moving almost like a crab. That is when we looked closer and saw it was (and still is) a baby octopus! He is the size of a dime. I guess he was a peice of live rock we collected.
We have been reading up on them and they say the WILL esacpe. Has anyone else had any experience with raising octopi? If so, we have some questions. We are kinda worried because all the websites say he will eat all the snails and stuff. I dont know if we are going to be able to keep him or not, if anyone has any advice or tips on this subject please let us know!
