That is a GLAM octopus! I’d love to raise an octopus, but they’re challenging, as your example shows, and the short lifespan is tough emotionally. I had a fren in the Bahamas on a little shallow reef I visited often, though she would only peek out, never fully emerge.

oh yes, completely complex environment needed WAY too expensive. pretty sure they're like that on purpose. they don't want much to do with humans. they're right, I hardly do myself.
