I've always said I will never have one. They're smarter than me.

Lol that’s funny but they have a measurable intelligence have you seen the octopus thing on Netflix?

Was our favorite thing many yrs ago watching the live rock at night by torchlight

Pics or ban!

If I had a pic, he would not be in the tank :) We have only had two glimpses of him.

I would get into so much trouble if I set up another tank for an octopus. Then again I would get in more trouble if I didn’t... Love her... mean it... :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

So this morning, I saw a flash and it inked!

I would love to have your problem. I would setup a tank just for him.

Me too!!

 

[Ordovician_Reef]

Me too!!

Come and get him :)

Your decorators are probably larger / equal sized to the octopus, so it’s the hermits that will get picked off.
Eventually you’ll have the opportunity to net it out. Or if you see the rock nook it is in, then remove the rock. I like the coke bottle trap suggestion but fill it with crabs.

Tiny hitchhikers in April.
