Baby Blue Ring?

[Tamara]

Hi everyone,
I was doing a muck dive the other day and my buddy and I came across this guy

I suspect it's a young lesser blue ring octopus, but I'm not sure, I was hoping you could help.
Size: 1.5cm "ish"
The bottom: heavy sand with peices of coral rubble, 15m depth
His (her?) reaction to being photographed was to stay still not really changing colours and to crawl slowly away pressing his body close to the sand, after two or three photos changed to white and quickly jetted away approx 1m off the bottom.

Thanks for merging them!

Thanks for merging those. I found a pair of cute little cuttles, around the corner from where I saw the little octo in close to the reef. They were fairly friendly and always came back to the same rock, it's a site I'm planning to visit again tomorrow afternoon so hopefully I'll get some pics I can add- if they are still hanging out near their rock.

I hope you get a couple of good photos, we don't get to see many in situ cuttles since there are none in the western hemisphere.
