Atlantic Pygmy Octopus

[nanoreef_swag]

Hi I'm nanoreef_swag. And I plan on starting a 15 gallon nano reef this summer, and I've done a ton of research. But this topic is on the Atlantic Pygmy Octopus. My brother said he wants one and we made a deal if I did all the research he would by one and everything it needs. So I just need to now the generally care for one, life span, what they can eat, and if they can live in a 5 gallon tank. Any info will be read. Also I want to know if you have kept this type of octopus. I would love to hear your info and about your personal experience with this octopus! Thanks so much! NR_S

I had researched this some at one point only because I could have gotten one for near free. In the end I decided against it. Anyway, here are two forum articles I found during that time. Hope it helps some. I'm sure there are more.
