Hey all, I've been in the market for an octopus for awhile, and my LFS finally got two in - I suspect they're either bimacs or briareus. They're both TINY - one's mantle is maybe the size of a quarter with 1" legs, and the other maybe twice that size.
The tank I was expecting to put the octo in - I was trying to get Cyanea, but that distributor failed me - is 225 gallon, with heavy filtration. In my opinion, FAR too large for a tiny octo. So I was thinking of buying one of those 29 gallon biocubes and using some live rock/sand/water from my well established tanks. The thinking would be to use it as a short-term grow out tank.
Thoughts?
