Yea, but you could feel it while it’s strangling you at night.You do realize that all shallow water cephalopods have a relatively short life. I am fascinated by cuttlefish, but won't get one because, at best, they live about two years. If you chill the tank, you'd be lucky to get your octopus to live a year. Also, you'd never see it while it remains hidden in a hole somewhere.
