Octopus Question

[jeffreyy]

any one have a octopus? If so what kind of care/tank do they need?

 

[t316]

From what I have read....you need something with a locked top, and still they may find a way out. Very difficult to keep contained unless you are prepared.

Remember, Octopus can get out ANY hole in the tank.

They should really be kept in the wild or public aquariums unless you have a really big tank and it is impossible for it to escape.

Depends on the species, but generically speaking....BIG
