Hello everyone, this is my very first post on the forum D:
I have absolutely no experience with aquariums but I am starting to read articles to prepare for the eventual ownership of an octopus or a cuttlefish
The thing is.... It is well known octopus are intelligent therefore isn't it unethical to keep them in captivity? aren't they always trying to escape their tanks? wouldn't it be like keeping a human in a home but they can never go out?
I REALLY want to own an octopus but these questions keep bothering me, what do you guys think?
Thanks for your input!
