I want to start off by saying i just got bashed on another forum for trying to buy this guys so a little help only plz.
One of my LFS has what i am fairly certain is a wonderpus even tho it is labeled as a mimic. I have been keeping and setting up marine systems for ppl for over ten years so a nice tank and optimal water is not an issue. Now i have never kept a ceph but this guy is screaming my name and eventually some newcomer will get it and kill it. It has been there for 2 weeks and they have it eating emeralds and pinky mice. Seeing it eat good makes me think its healthy, but every time i go look at it its colors are very dull. Its legs are pushing 4~5" and head is about dime sized. I have a great custom 45 gal. deep with alot of surface area, softies, and a pile of rock in the middle, another 20 gal in the sump and a nice skimmer. I cant catch the yellow tang or 2 fire fish or the few other inverts in it but i dont really mind if the octo make a healthy meal of them. Please help me make this tank its new home. Are they a harder octo to keep? Just cause it is eating now could i get it home and loose it? I really want to make its short life nice
Thanks
