I'm confused....Octo#2 was out tonight searching for food and I'm not sure if she's the same as Squiggles or not so I'm posting both their pics on this thread to see what you all think. Octo#2 is much more shy, but has positioned herself where she can see us, unlike Squiggles, who hides continuously unless he's hungry. Octo#2 is very good with changing to whatever color she is near where Squiggles does not, has his own color scheme going on, regardless of what's near him. If they are the same species then they both have totally different personalities, which I know all octopuses do but I am surprised as to how total opposite these are.

yeah identical species its o alecto i had one just like them about 6 months ago she got to have a mantle golfball sized and legs 8 inches or so long. she laid small eggs that were fertile hatched and then all died she died a few weeks later.
